Very bad spot, honestly.
Pros, you can catch only katowice headed cars.
Cons, the cars ride very fast.
Also, you need to walk in the grass for 20 min to get there

Arguably one of the best spots in Poland. Great to catch a ride towards Wrocław or Katowice. With some luck you can also find a driver going to Kielce, Lublin, Rzeszów or even Ukraine or Czech Republic.

I believe there was a hole in the fence, close to the exit in the bushes. Just go along the fence and you'll find it.

MOP Szewce. A medium sized parking lot next to S7 motorway.
You can get there from Kielce by bus no. 19 (get off at Szewce wiadukt bus stop). Go to the right, upstairs and through the door. If the door is locked, you can jump over the fence or try the gate a little bit further the small road.
Most of the people go to Kraków or Katowice from here.

Had a sign for Wroclaw/Katowice, but most traffic here is local. I got the bus to the Orlen station in Balice, hopped the fence, and found a ride after 5 minutes of asking around.

Best spot when u are hitchiking alone as there are so many truck drivers, but cars ride more to Katowice or Wroclaw. I recommend you to stay nearby gas station no at the end of parking.
