* <b>By motorway (autostrada) A2, from toll booths:</b>
Go to <i>Ogrody </i> (last station of trams 2, 7, 17, 18 and many buses) and take suburban bus no. 108 to <i>Dopiewo/Lisówki</i>. The bus stop in <i>Ogrody </i> is in front of Savoy Restaurant. Get out in <b><i>Dopiewiec</i></b> (don't mess it up as names are very similar). The ticket costs about 3 PLN and you can buy it at the bus driver. The ride takes about 40 minutes. Here's suburban bus network [http://www.zukkomorniki.com.pl/rozklad/mapa.htm map] and [http://www.zukkomorniki.com.pl/rozklad/100-01.htm timetable]. From there walk for about 2km and after that just jump over the fence and you're at the spot. Here's the [http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&ll=52.353718,16.717973&spn=0.012739,0.027637&t=h&z=15&msid=112760156584939739161.000469d4924c2bad2c929 route].
* <b>By motorway (autostrada) A2, from slip road:</b>
From city centre e.g from bus stop [http://www.ipoznan.pl/Transport/mpk/tabliczka.html?P=ZAME-22&L=15&K=20 <i>Zamek</i>], near the Castle Art Centre (Centrum Kultury Zamek) take bus no. 71 and go to the last stop called <b><i>Os. Dębina</i></b>. From there walk south for about 800m. Here's the [http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&hl=en&msa=0&ll=52.35761,16.904869&spn=0.006369,0.013819&t=h&z=16&msid=112760156584939739161.000469d4e81b719e248f2 route]. Unfortunately there is no emergency lane on the entrence to the motorway, so it might be tricky.
* <b>By national road (droga krajowa) 92:</b>
Go to <i>Ogrody </i> (see above) and take bus no. 61 direction <i>Krzyżowniki</i>. Get out at the ninth stop called <b><i>Ul. Wichrowa</i></b> and walk along the road for about 300 m then you will see petrol station and McD's. Ask drivers there or stay on the road with sign or thumb. Also about 100 m after this place is a bus stop so it's more convenient for drivers to stop their car.
==East towards [[Warszawa]], [[Łódź]]==
* <b>By national road (droga krajowa) 92:</b>
From city center take trams 6 or 8 to <b><i>Miłostowo</i></b> and get out at the last stop. From there walk along the road about 100 m and you will see Orlen petrol station. You can either ask drivers at the station or hitch at the end of it where is a place for cars to pull over.
Optionally you can walk along the same road and after 200-300m you will see a bridge and Volkswagen factory. Hitch straight after the bridge on the bus stop (there is plenty of cars and trucks who are going by inner bypass around Poznan, so many of them are going for a longer distances, and you may avoid local traffic like it's possible at the first place mentioned).
Another option is getting to suburb town called <i>Swarzędz</i>. From city center go to tram stop <b><i>Rondo Śródka</i></b> (trams 4, 17 direction <i>Starołęka</i>, 6, 8 direction <i>Miłostowo</i>) and then take bus no S-1 from bus station behind Lotos petrol station, direction <b><i>Swarzędz</i></b>). After about 20 minutes bus will turn left (near Lidl shop) then go out, turn back to the main road and hitch some meters after crossroad, junction, traffic lights, whatever. About 300 m further from this place there's Shell petrol station and huge parking for truckers. If you are not lucky there try also the traffic lights across the petrol station.
==Northeast towards [[Gdańsk]], [[Bydgoszcz]], [[Toruń]]==
Take bus no. 73 direction <i>Janikowo/Ogrodnicza </i> from place called <bi>Rondo Sródka</bi> and get out after 11 stops (about 15-18 minutes) at bus stop called <b><i>Bogucin Bałtycka</i></b>. Hitch on this bus stop, it's on the road to Gniezno, Bydgoszcz and Gdańsk just after junction with Poznań bypass. You should notice railways nearby and crossed Poznań sign (end of the city zone).
==North towards [[Koszalin]], [[Piła]]==
From city centre (e.g. <i>Rondo Kaponiera) </i> take tram 9, 11 to <b><i>Piątkowska</i></b> and get out at the last stop. From there go north along <i>Piątkowska </i> street to the first junction, then turn west (left) and go to roundabout <i>Rondo Obornicka</i>. On roundabout turn north again (right) and enter national road no. 11 (you will see hipermarket Carrefour next to you). You can hitch after roundabout or anywhere along <i>Obornicka Street </i> street where is a place to pull over. There's almost always traffic jam, so cars go slowly, which helps hitchhikers.
==Northwest towards [[Szczecin]], [[Gorzów Wielkopolski]]==
