==General information==
'''Baia Mare''' (meaning ''Big Mine'') is an important city in northern [[Romania]] and the seat of Maramures County. It is located in the northern part of the county, on the middle course of the Sasar River, surrounded by the Ignis and Gutai mountains. It concentrates about 150,000 people. It sits on the European Road E58, connecting [[Romania]] to [[Ukraine]] ([[Cluj-Napoca]] through E576).
==Hitchhiking directions==== Hitching =South (towards [[Cluj-Napoca]]) ===
Get to the train station. Near it, there's a big round-about with a light-tower in the middle. Follow the road as it passes underneath the railway, and you can hitch right after the underpass. Holding a [[Cluj-Napoca|Cluj]] sign helps, as from Cluj-Napoca you can get almost anywhere in [[Romania]].
