Quite good spot if your aiming for Zagreb or füttern sout-east I wanted to go to Split and very few drove to that direction, had to take a ride to zagreb and then walk out of the city

Not too much traffic when we were there but very responsive people. We almost got taken a few times but most cars are full kf families whith little space. We eventually got taken all the way to Zagreb by a friendly Czech dad with his daughter. Definitely ask around and dont just thumb.

Easy to access straight from Ljubljana (check hitchhiker wiki for good direction) but not at good spot for going to Zagreb. Not many cars, even fewer going direction Novo Mesto/Croatia

Not the best spot at all but there was room for a car to pull over and it was super pretty so I was happy. Had a sign that said Zagreb. Got a car that took me most of the way there

Started hitchhiking in the afternoon with a sign reading Split and a Slovenian guy took us all the way to Zadar where he offered us that he'll drive us to Zagreb the next day (it was late when we got to Zadar) which we happily accepted

We waited cca 8-11 on a Saturday morning but there where only locals from Zagreb. We asked around and had a sign, we tried standing next to the highway too. Ultimately we decided to walk to another gas station 15 km from there (45.7500547N, 16.3010861E) by nearby roads (not along th highway) - fortunately a driver took us a part of the way

We got here at 7pm, tried to hitchhike further but nobody stoped, so we had to sleep in a forest nearby. The other day a kind Slovenian women took us to Zagreb. But overall not a good spot. People make you feel invisible

Great spot for Zagreb but nobody goes towards budapest. We had to wait 2 hours for a guy to take us to a better spot

Wollte zuerst nach Cracac um von dort aus mit dem Zug nach Zagreb zu fahren. Obwohl auf der Autobahn Stau war und alle in Posedarje runtergefahren sind und die Umleitung über Cracac gefahren sind hat mich niemand mitgenommen. Nach über 2,5 Stunden hatte ich das Glück das mich ein Opa mitnahm und sogar selbst nach Zagreb fahren müsste.

The Place in theory is great, the only problem is the people coming here, literally no one stopped, if they stopped it was just to show you the finger or to try to hit you with their cars. I tried with different signs (Maribor, Ljubljana, Zagreb, Budapest, Wien, Graz) and no one was going anywhere apparently. Multiple Italians coming by, I asked them as well and the majority of them told me that they would've picked me up if I was a pretty woman. I've never had such a bad experience hitchhiking

This is a very good spot for hitchhiking. There are a lot of cars, they are going slowly and they can stop easely. We had a sign to Zagreb and (but you could definitely go further). A nice young guy took us and even offerd us, that we can spend the night at his house in Zagreb.

This is not a great spot, but good enough. We had a sign to Zagreb, after a while a guy stopped and said that it is going to be easier to hitchhike from Karlovac. Than he took us to a gas pump in Karlovac. We had to go another 3 km to the highway entrance ( very good spot)

Cool spot, lots of traffic. Lots of people heading to Zagreb, Austria, the Czech Republic, and Poland. I was traveling alone, male.

As other user said, don't ask ppl around McDonald's (they all go to Austria). Go all the way to the end where is the exit to highway and stand with sign. Got a ride to Zagreb quite quick.

it’s high trafic, we stood there for hours. wanted to go to Croatia. nothing worked, no tables worked. On this spot hitchhikers staying almost everyday (we have met 13 of them at the same time (CRAZY😁), so that’s why maybe no one takes you even if it’s high traffic. Its better to go to the right on A2 to some bus or gas station (some of us did this and the got picked up). Anyway. Some guys were going to Zagreb and one car took them straight to Zagreb.
