Hitchhiking out

East to Kaunas, Vilnius E 85

Take bus 12, 7, 5, or 2 and then walk 2 km until the beginning of the road A1/E85 at the Jaku ring.

North to Palanga, Latvia E 272

Take bus 3, 9, or 6 to the final stop Miesto Ligonine (Hospital of Town) . After getting off the bus, hitchhike from the bus stop across the street after the Lukoil gas station.

West to Nida, Kaliningrad

It is easy to hitch a ride to the Curonian Spit from the ferry port for cars. Ferries leave about one an hour and cars have to wait in a queue. A ticket for a passenger or pedestrian costs about 0,80€. At night or when there is no security you might be able to sneak in without paying. If you want to go to Kaliningrad, ask cars with Russian number plates - there are usually a lot of them and they are likely to go there. You can check the schedule here.
