===South and southwest towards [[Toruń]], [[Łódź]] and [[Bydgoszcz]], [[Poznań]]===
*<b>By expressway bypass S6 (E28), from petrol station</b>
Another option is to use the local train called [http://www.skm.pkp.pl/dali.php?aa=mapa_trasy SKM], or regular train and get to <b><i>Pszczółki</i></b> or some other village between Gdańsk and Tczew. When you get off the train just walk out of the village in the direction of the road, it's visible from the station. Since first part of the motorway A1 was built there is less traffic on national road 1.
===Southeast and east towards [[Warszawa]] and [[Olsztyn]], [[Kaunas]] ([[Lithuania]])===
*<b>By national road 7 (E77), from bus stop</b>
''"[[User:Uhmm|Uhmm]] hitched there a few times and he has seen hitchers there and even picked up one French guy going to [[Lithuania]] once. On this bus stop usually local people await their buses, when they see you hitching they may do the same, they will of course stand 15m in front of you, but they probably won't smile, so eye-contact with cars and a little bit of smile and you go along the fantastic road no. 7."''
===North and west towards Baltic coast and [[Koszalin]], [[Szczecin]], [[Berlin]] ([[Germany]])===
*<b>By expressway bypass S6 (E28) > national road 6, from petrol station</b>
''"If you go to Berlin it's better to write Polish city on the sign e.g. Szczecin (only 80km from Berlin) because even if Poles are going to Germany they may think you are German and may be shy to speak German (a Berlin sign took me much longer compared to a Szczecin sign for different trips)."'' - Anonymous
