Most of traffic is towards the border, just be aware quite often if they stop, they are gonna ask for money, either persist that you are going without money, or be willing to scrounge up however much they are asking. Funnily, one of the guys who asked for money just saw me walking away and just said "is ok no money" and got a free ride, even if 2 minutes before he asked for 10 euro

After finishing my hike in afternoon, quickly got a ride back to Prizren
This spot is not perfect, but drivers here don’t mind and still pick you up :)

Got a ride with an Albanian elderly man. He couldn't speak english, but we managed with google translate and hand signs. He dropped us near the old town of Prizren. Friendly person.

decent for heading towards montenegro, but pretty unlikely they will be crossing the border. always a pleasure hitching with albanians

Kosovo is hitchhiking heaven, it looks like you can stay anywhere and everyone will stop for you.

Literally first car stopped, typical Kosovo experience with the most helpful people I've ever met.

Hitching in Gora is special. the people are some of the kindest I've ever met. the road was quiet, but good quality, so enough cars. lorries are good because they seem more likely to be going to Prizren (which is what i did). be sure to, like all of these rural quiet roads in hiking areas, to be assertive in your method

Busy street, but not so busy at the gas station itself.

along the road in presevo and all the way to kosovo border you can hitchhike with 0 problems. just keep walking and keep thumbing. i got many small rides, not putting it all on the map.

a lot of cars, great number of them with Belgrade or Serbian plates going to the border. Also some Romanian or Kosovo. But many cars are full with kids/luggage. I still got a ride tho. Stood exactly at the pump, workers didn't mind.
had sign saying "SRB"

First car stopped, that's how it works in this region. My driver called his friend, who often rides to Kosovo. It turned out that he is leaving right now, he waited for us and I just changed the cars. Amazing, super helpful people.

There is no space for a car to stop but it's Albania so who cares. The car was going to Kosovo. I was heading to Valbona via Bairam Curri. The driver said that the majority of cars go there via Kosovo nowadays. I couldn't go there so had to stick to the old road.

If you end up here you're likely to get a ride towards Kosovo reasonably fast, there's a shop and a cafe there as well

Traffic is sparse there but you'll likely be taken to a better place to catch a ride towards Kosovo.

Good spot and fairly busy, got a dude from Geneva that dropped me into a town in Kosovo, you can see the license plates so that helps too.
