the spot on the left has some good comments that apply here

looks decent but absolutely no chance of people stopping quickly lol

not a good spot because its in front of a city, but possibly the best spot if trying to go north from under thessa!

Stand on the Path between the Bike lane and the street and leave some room for Cars to stop

Waited after turnoff up to Vikos, was a €2 bus from Ioannina. Low traffic from 8-9am but got busier as time went on. Was just about to give up and get a taxi (€30) but just then someone took us to Vitsa. If you are willing to wait, I think people will be open to hitch hiking here, if they have space.

Got a ride all the way to Haskovo after waiting for a long time here, not a very good spot, but people can pull over which is good.

Thumbing and walking on side ride into Albania

Took longer than expected ride to some village before Albanian border

Got picked up quick. Ride halfway to Albania

Toll station around here, ride with police to outside of ionnia

Room to pull over, just might take a while

quite hard to get here bc not a single app was right about the bus timetable, ended up taking bus 51 (none of the others were coming) which was an unsafe walk to this spot so maybe be a bit more patient with the busses

Good spot, also house under construction across the street that's an easy climb in

Longish wait but ride w an Albanian trucker straight to meteora

Ride east super quick pick up

Asked a car to drop me after the bridge (which is not walkable, there are soldiers on it). Worked! Thanks Honor and Ismail!

My plan was to ask the Turkish truck drivers and if not successful move to the toll station. Asked the first Turkish truck driver and he dropped me at the border ! Tesekurler Fethi! He also share his meal with me.

To go back from Mount Athos to Thessaloniki, just make some friends during your pilgrimage/trip. A lot of people come from there and will go back by car. Thanks George and Theodoris!

Perfect Spot. Guards were nice. Just stand behind the toll station with a sign saying „Istanbul“ or whatever you want. 2 pers, 4pm

Best spot to go east from Tessaloniki. Avoid the smaller streets and stay on the Higways if you don’t wanna get totally stuck. Guards were friendly

Border area has lots of spots, but as I remember, truck and bus/car traffic is separated. I waited near barracks-shops, but some people paid more attention to me than I needed ("wana buy something"). Car drove to Scopie and took me to the highway junction near Petrovec (my target was Greece).

One Macedonian took me here from the Serbian border, but I strongly not recommend this place if you are going to Greece. Cars are simply too fast here. Walk out to Petrovec.

I recommend this place. Truck driver takes me to his house and then we switch to his son's car until Greece border (thanks Oliver!). Spot has a lot of place, a shop, some benches, and grass. In my case, I take a bus from the Sub-Scopie town Petrovce to the village Katlanovo, then I walk 10-15 min in the direction of this gas station, but I have to find a hole in the net between Higthway and the local road.

Got dropped off here by a local saying I could walk to Greece, which was not true, so I had to wait for a guy to drive me to the other side. I was very lucky to be picked up by a very sweet German guy travelling all the way to Gernany, although I had a intention to go to Bulgaria, so we spent two days together in Greece and Samothrace, after which he dropped me off at a road going to Bulgaria.

propably got really lucky but an albanian guy took me all the way to veroia, maybe should've waited for a ride straight to where i needed to go (or geeting out at the border) because once i was in greece there were almost no cars and not a single good hitchhiking spot to the south on the way

Spot was not really good. Few cars. Cars go as fast as if they were on the German Autobahn. I had a big sign. Nobody stoped. Maybe I was a bit unlucky. After three hours I decided to take the bus for three Euro to the Greece border (in the village) the people are very friendly and know when the bus arrives + there is icecream;)

I got pickep up super fast by some guys in a van, they were going to Greece to so it was super convenient, they invite me to dinner and even paid a hotel for me in the destination. I got so lucky

Perfect spot to go to the border (Guevgueliya). Once there, walk one hour, don't wait another lift to the border crossing. Most people are afraid to bring strangers to the checkpoint and by walking you're almost faster than the queue to enter Greece. Just hitchhike after the checkpoint. Thanks to our Turkish Macedonian driver!

after about 30 mins a guy going into the McDonalds said he was going to Greece and could drop me off in Bolzano… twenty minutes later he came out saying he had just gotten a call that he needed to go back to Munich! I was absolutely devastated but just a few minutes later a trucker saved me and dropped me in Bolzano

The best Place then you want to go to Greece

Hitch to Dojran lake on the border with Greece

There is some place for cars to stop, good spot for going Greece, but i dont suggest, i did mistake with it.

Stood with a sign saying SRB, an Estonian guy driving to Greece took me all the way to Novi Sad and gave me 20€ and an apple

Many cars passing by, nobody stopped for hours. One guy stopped and wanted to give me 50€ for the bus. Then a local guy who saw me 1,5h earlier stopped and took me even though he didn't even needed to go my direction. Friendly people in Greece but they just don't get the concept of hitchhiking.

If you're heading towards Sofia/Istanbul, this is an average spot for hitchhiking; more drivers head towards Greece/Macedonia. We tried to hitchhike at a gas station for 2.5 hours, then moved directly onto the highway. After 45 minutes, a driver heading to Pirot stopped us. I don't know if we were unlucky or if it's actually a bad spot. It's hard to say. (Perhaps we should ask the drivers at the Nais Hotel on the other side.) Overall, it's a good place for a wild camping trip – there's a quiet meadow behind the fence, and if you need one, there's a shop and a toilet.

Was given a lift by two Albanian dudes heading toward Greece.

Perfect, some greek/Albanians took me, they were going in vacation in Greece from Sweden. Lots of nice and no so nice people here !

We have up after two hours and walked back to the North Macedonia-Greece border And hitched from there.

Very nice woman, hitchhiking in Greece seems hard though

Waited with a sign Nis, right on the highway just after the barriers (I saw two policemen looking guys hitch the same way). Hungarian driver going to Greece took me, Lots of traffic and no problem for car to stop directly on the road since the ones behind have to stop for the toll barrier anyway. Took bus 493 from Sava Centar in Beograd to get there, public transport is free (for now).
