South towards Slovenia, Ljubljana

To the south there is a motorway going through the Karawanken Tunnel over to Jesenice (German: Aßling) in Slovenia. Apart from that there is also the old road over the pass. It's hard to get a ride from Villach towards Slovenia. One good possibility is catching a ride towards Salzburg to the next gas station. Plenty of cars stopping there into BOTH directions (north and south).

North towards Salzburg, Germany

To the north there is the Tauern-motorway going to Salzburg and Germany.
