Be fast and catch the car from your ferry, otherwise go and try on the first village

Waited here for an hour and didn't find a ride south. I then continued by bus to the omramp to the main coastal road and instantly found a ride from there.

I waited only 5 minutes by the bus stop for a car that drove me almost 50 minutes down the coastal road. Really fun time, and probably your best bet if you want to go south on the coast :)

We wanted to go to rupa, to cross the border but no one was stopping. We had to wait for at least 1h for one person, and it wasn’t even to rupa

We waited for several hours but nobody picked us up. Had one sign with drvenik and one with Dubrovnik. Most of the people on this road just go a few kilometres to the next city. Would not recommend that spot.

Good spot since everyone is going same direction, make sure to be visible to people coming from the left

Get prepared to get into the car quickly, and if you go to Zadar or Split you should reject cars going towards Rijeka. Police is there, but didn’t bother us

I asked around 5 minutes. Two guys from Croatia gave me a ride to Croatia
Croatian is my mother language, I think that helped me a lot.
April, Sunday 3 pm, not much cars

Amazing visibility and even space for a truck to stop. All the traffic from the highway to Croatia passes through here.

It's not a good place for a couple we waited a whole afternoon then slept here in tent on the next morning we found a truck driver who took us to Croatia. If you are alone it can be good there are some trucks there and most of them willing to take one person. ou can go to Slovenia or croatia from here but come here only if you are alone.

It was July and many people were driving to Croatia etc. so it was very hard to find someone who have a free place :(
It's always better to ask drivers for a ride. In July it's 1/5 star

Good Spot to go to Croatia but you need some time, I stood at the exit with a sign Zagreb Lubljana, possible to sleep near the River

There was no one going towards Slovenia or Croatia. Everyone was local people, and on top of that the gas station was under reconstruction. Only the McDonald's was open, but even there it was just locals.

Worst place you can find for hitchhiking. We waited here for more than a day in the summer. Every car is rather full of families returning from vacation or refugees with car from switzerland. We had a cardboard saying Hrvatska, then we switched to Croatia, then we just asked people, but nobody wanted to take us or they had full car. After day on this gas station it seems like spawn for refugees with expensive cars. Stay in Belgrad instead, it's a nice city

Its okey place to go in direction of Croatia, Cacak or Novi Sad. After 40 min with sign "Novi Sad" we got a ride where we needed.

Not much traffic to Croatia, many full cars and families, most going North East, finally got a Swedish couple to take three of us Southish, where I got out at Novo Mesto to try my luck again for Zagreb.

Lots of traffic due to a 2cv citroen car festival. It meant a lot of the traffic was local but there were also cars going further. I was picked up by a smart car. My first time in a smart car - they're bigger than you think!
Driver took me past where he was going and dropped me at the border crossing for Croatia.

Not sure about this spot, but we (2 people) catched a ride with a sign with woman going on vacation to croatia. Guess you have to be lucky here
