=== East towards [[Katowice]], [[Kraków]] {{Apl|4}} {{E|40}} ===

Then use google maps to walk to Orlen petrol station located on the exit from the motorway. It is the same situation as going west towards Germany, you are just on the other side of the motorway.

Spot / {{E|40}} on [https://maps.google.com/?ll=51.049159%2C16.969864&spn=0.001706%2C0.005284&t=h&z=18&layer=c&cbll=51.049159%2C16.969864&panoid=4easbB-Izhrba4XMQ7y8nA&cbp=12%2C346.17%2C%2C0%2C15.36 Google Street View]

Note : If you're going past Katowice region (for example to Kraków), but your driver is turning off A4 there, then get off at MOP Rachowice at the outskirts of Gliwice - it's a great spot to find a ride further on. Otherwise you might get stuck in some very bad spot with only local traffic.

=== Northeast towards [[Łódź]], [[Warsaw|Warszawa]] {{National Road Number Poland|8}} {{E|67}} ===


==== Option 1: Opposite "Wroclaw Psie Pole" train station ====

Use [https://jakdojade.pl/wroclaw/trasa/ website] to find the connection with Wroclaw Psie Pole Train Station.
Start hitching on the opposite side of the road to the train station. There is bus stop so you can hitchhike there just before the bus stop.

==== Option 2: "Wroclaw Lotnisko" A8 motorway exit ====

In the west of the city you can find a roundabout in Graniczna street where it meets with Plaska street, just before the S8. There is a shopping centre nearby. You can stand in the exit of the roundabout with a Warszawa sign. There is just enough place for the cars to stop, and they are going very slow, so they can see you easily.

==== Option 3: "Wroclaw Polnoc" A8 motorway exit ====

Use the spot North towards Poznan, Bydgosz from this website.

=== North towards [[Poznań]], [[Bydgoszcz]] {{National Road Number Poland|5}} {{E|261}} ===
==== "Wroclaw Polnoc" A8 motorway exit ====

[[File:Wroclav-Poznan.jpg|thumb|right|200px|[[User:Rafkoo|Rafkoo]] hitching out towards Poznan]]
Hitchhiking spot: bus stop of bus 908. Bus departure from Dworzec Nadodrze station. It cost 3.40 Zl. 
Name of the bus station: "''Lekarska''". And this is your spot. You can't walk further. Having a sign is strongly recommended.

Use [https://jakdojade.pl/wroclaw/trasa/ website] to find connection to the bus stop.

=== Northwest towards [[Zielona Góra]], [[Szczecin]] {{National Road Number Poland|94}} {{National Road Number Poland|3}} {{E|65}}===

Take tram 10 or 20 to Leśnica from the city centre and get of on the last stop (the ride takes about 30 minutes). Then walk west about 3 km where road 94 joins. Or take bus 938 948 to Żar.
=== South towards [[Prague]] ([[Czech Republic|CZ]])  ===

==== Option 1: "Bielany Wroclawskie" A4 motorway exit with Orlen petrol station on the spot {{Apl|4}} {{E|40}} -> {{National Road Number Poland|5}} {{E|65}} ====
It is exactly the same spot as going "West towards Berlin, Dresden" so follow instructions above. You need to enter A4 motorway in direction West and exit it on "Kostomloty" exit towards Lubawka (PL / CZ) border crossing {{National Road Number Poland|5}} (it is about ~30km after entering it). All cars that go west fit you, you just need to ask driver to drop you off at that exit so that you can go {{National Road Number Poland|5}} .

==== Option 2 (via [[Kłodzko]]): Magnice village {{National Road Number Poland|8}} {{E|67}} ====
Take the bus to the village Magnice. There is direct bus number 862 from main train station (Dworzec PKP (Sucha)) and it costs 4,50 zloty but it goes not so often (once per hour) so it is better to check timetable in advance [https://www.marcopolo.pl/transport-miejski-kobierzyce timetables]. Hitchhike on the bus stop that you get off at. This spot is straight after the roundabout, so cars go slowly. All the traffic from A8 motorway towards Kudowa-Zdroj (PL / CZ) border crossing goes through this point. 

Use [https://jakdojade.pl/wroclaw/trasa/ website] to find bus connection with Magnice.

862 - direct bus from main train station

Another option is train to Kobierzyce. It takes you to the same route but a little bit further. From "Kobierzyce" train station it is 900m walk to {{National Road Number Poland|8}}.

==== Option 3 (via [[Kłodzko]]): "Wroclawska" street in Bielany Wroclawskie {{National Road Number Poland|8}} {{E|67}} ====

Go to Bielany Wroclawskie (follow instruction for going east or west from this website). Start hitchhiking on Wroclawska street for example at "Bielany Wr. - MAKRO" bus station.
For this option taking train from Wroclaw main station to "Bielany Wroclawskie" could be convenient.

==== Warning for option 2 and 3 ====
In case of getting a lift which will be crossing going by any other place than Kudowa Zdroj, '''do not''' take it (only if you can drive directly to Prague or Hradec Kralove). All other roads (as Miedzylesie - Mladkovske sedlo) are pretty dead and you might find it very difficult to get a lift in there.

== Hitching in ==

There are a few different highways that circle around Wroclaw. If your driver isn't travelling directly to Wroclaw, it is unlikely that they will take you to the centre because it is a rather large diversion for them. 

If you're coming either from Kraków or from Germany along the A4 motorway ask your driver to drop you off at Bielany Orlen petrol station. From there you can take a bus 612 to Wrocław main railway station. The last bus leaves at 22.14 Monday till Sunday and the bus stop is located on Wrocławska Street south of the motorway, next to Hotel Bielany.

If you're going along the A8, ask the driver to let you out at the airport. From there you can take the airport bus directly to the city centre.
