'''Roundabout ''Rataje'''''
Get to '''''Rondo Rataje''''' (roundabout). There are plenty of trams and buses going there. You can hitch just behind it, on a dual carriegeway (the one without tram tracks). There's no emergency lane or bus stop, but drivers generally stop there, and you may even expect some competition there, as it's popular spot for students hitching back from school. From the same spot you can hitch southeast towards [[Katowice]], so make a sign.
:This spot is not good, I got stuck here for several hours with another hitchhiker until I gave up and took the bus. The stop appears like it should be a very good one but no one will stop. Not recommended. (08/2016).

:This spot at the road is ok, but traffic is going a bit fast (70km/u). [[User:Worldhitchhiker|Worldhitchhiker]] stood there for more than an hour. After that he moved to the petrol station and asked people, then I got a lift within 15 minutes to a gas station at the highway (04/2019).

=== East towards [[Łódź]], [[Warsaw|Warszawa]] {{Apl|2}} {{E|30}} ===
In the city centre, just in front of the castle there's a bus stop called '''Zamek'''. From there take a bus 71 in the direction <b><i>Osiedle Dębina</i></b> and get off at the end. Go along the main road till you get to the motorway junction. You can ask at the red lights for a lift to the nearest petrol station on A2 (MOP Krzyżowniki), which is just before the junction Poznań Wschód (exit for S5 towards Gniezno). Ask: ''stacja benzynowa A2'' (pronounce statsya benzenova ah dva).
'''Option 3'''Petrol station on ''Warszawska'' street'''
From city center take trams 6 or 8 to '''''Miłostowo''''' and get out at the last stop. From there walk along the road about 100 m and you will see Orlen petrol station. You can either ask drivers at the station or hitch at the end of it where is a place for cars to pull over.
Optionally you can walk along the same road and after 200-300m you will see a bridge and Volkswagen factory. Hitch straight after the bridge on the bus stop (there is plenty of cars and trucks who are going by inner bypass around Poznan, so many of them are going for a longer distances, and you may avoid local traffic like it's possible at the first place mentioned).
