Maribor, is the second most important centre and the second largest city of Slovenia. It has a population of about 114,000 inhabitants, and is quite close to the Slovene border with Austria. I have been told repeteadly by my drivers that they also hitchhiked the country when they were younger, and that’s why they would pick me. The highway connects the main cities and Austria in less than 2 hours.

Hitchhiking out

Direction of Ljubljana, Celje and Italy

1. From the Old City, walk to the bridge which leads to the Europark shopping mall, and continue straight, passing the shopping mall. (The street is called Titova cesta.) Continue walking in this street, passing the first petrol station on your right, till you reach the second petrol station. You can either ask drivers in the Petrol station to give you a lift, or you can hitchhike from the bus station just before the petrol station. From here it is about 1 km till the motorway entrance.


2. Near the Maribor main train station, there's a main road called "Meljska cesta". About 1 block before the entrance to the H2 highway, there's a bus stop where cars about to enter the highway can easily stop. There are plenty of places to thumb in either sun or shade just in front of this bus stop.

Direction of Graz, Austria, Murska Sobota, Hungary

From the main train station (Partizanska cesta) continue walking south for about 50m, till you reach a junction. (Ahead of you is the Bus station.) Turn left to Meljska cesta, and go straight passing under the bridge and crossing the first junction. After a while you will see on your left the motorway on-ramp in direction of Austria, stand on the right side and hitchhike, preferably with a sign. From here drivers go to either Austria, or continue on the northern road towards Lenart, Murska Sobota and Hungary. There is also a bus stop just east of the on ramp which is safer and more convenient for drivers to pull over in, however there is less traffic coming from this direction.

Hitching in

From Ljubljana

From the main street, West of the Train station (Dunajska Cesta) take buses 6, 8 or 10 in direction of North. Get off in the station "Smelt", 15 minutes later, when you see the "World Trade Center" building. Ahead of you, you will see the Autostrada. On the first turn to the right, go into the motorway entry and stand on the side with your sign.
