We waited at the entrance of the petrol station for two hours with a sign that said: Szeged Románia felé. One car stopped, but we had too much luggage (two people, two backpacks, two instruments) and then two turkish truckers took us to the border of Turkey in two days.

Gas station is more or less destroyed, so you have to hitchhike on the road with thumb. Middle traffic, all going to Szeged. Got a ride quite quickly.

Its quite hard to find a ride to the other side of the border. We were HH with sign "H" and after some time we got a ride to Morahalom in Hungary, from where its easy to find a ride to Szeged.

1h waited to go M5 Szeged, but no one took us. Much local traffic. Wen't to the patrol Station next and got a ride after 15min though it doesn't look very ideal.

Great spot if you're travelling to Romania, not so great for Serbia. There's a city bus stop 10 minutes walk west the station from where you can get to Szeged and then the next OMV station by bus, which is 3km from the border. A driver told us you can only cross the border on foot on the crossing Horgos 2, but not on the highway one, so be aware of that.

Huge traffic and lots of trucks, also nice facilities. If you're going south to Szeged, it's a great spot.

Waited for almost 3 hours, the traffic was heavy but no one stopped. It's a great place for the drivers to stop, but those are mostly Hungarians getting back home to nearby villages and it's very difficult to move somewhere further like Szeged. You may consider taking a bus to the next OMV station.

We reached late at night and decided to wait for the morning to continue hitchhiking. The restaurant is cheap, the food is good and it's open 24h. There's also a 24h service station with cozy sofas to sleep in and power sockets. Buy water at the service station rather than the restaurant, it's 5 times cheaper for the same amount. In the morning a truck driver gave us a lift to Lugoj in Romania, although we could have gone further to Sibiu.
There are many Romanians passing by, go talk to the people rather than showing your sign. If you're heading to Serbia ask for Szeged, sometimes that's as far as they can take you before the border.
