Hitching in
From the west
There are 2 ways to get into the town from that direction.
- mostly, drivers with small cars going to Zielona Góra from direction Gubin, Słubice (check it on the map), so then go with them as far as possible to the center :) you can always ask for Castorama, Carrefour or McDonald's.
- lorry drivers (or drivers who don't stop in Zielona Góra) very often the the ring road/bypass. So then, you have to stop when you will see Auchan supermarket on the left (on the map it's checked by Łężyca direction). Then, you can go to Auchan and take free bus to town (line 55)
From the north
First of all, you have to find out where the driver goes exactly.
- if is taking bypass of Zielona Góra and goes to Wrocław or Germany
- if driver goes to Wrocław ask him to drop you near the viaduct with red fence on the bypass (streetview) and climb on it. There is a bus stop from which you can catch a bus to the center (line 7, 8 or 14)
- if driver goes to Germany then it's easier ;), there are 2 options:
- go with driver to 1st roundabout (before it, you will see MAKRO hipermarket on the right). Then walk for about 1.5km to town or take the bus.
- go with driver to 2nd roundabout (after it, you will see Auchan supermarket on the right). Go to Auchan and take free bus to town or walk if you want.
- or goes straight to the town,that's the easiest ;)
