Hitching out
North to Uman', Kiev (M5/E95)
Take trolleybus 8 from in front of the Central Railway Station. Ask the ticket seller for the stop Kievskaya trasa. From near the stop you can see a road signposted for Kiev.
Participants of the 789 Festival found this a challenging direction to hitchhike, with waiting times typically around 3-5 hours.
