Rijeka

Rijeka is a city in Croatia.

Hitching out

Direction Trieste and Italy

You have to take bus probably number 2 and travel to last stop. Then go straight and on the left you'll recognize beginning of highway. You have to go by walk on shoulder of highway to petrol station (around 1000 m) and you can ask people in this place. It is good road to Italy and Ljubljana and also to Austria.

Direction Zagreb

Hitchhiking to Zagreb is very easy and a really good experience. The main spot is ramp on Grobnik and from there you can easy get a ride. The full profile of the highway is almost done so ride from Rijeka to Zagreb is very short. The max. time is hour and a half. But first, to get the ramp on Grobnik you have to take bus number 16 on Delta bus terminal, wich is 500m from teathre HNK Ivana pl. Zajca. So its a center of Rijeka. On the bus ask the bus driver to leave you near the main statue which is 2km before the ramp. To get the ramp you have to walk by local road and even there you can hitchhike to the ramp. Sometimes locals help and pick you up. On the ramp you can wait max. for 20 min. but in general you wait there for a few minutes. From there you can hitchhike to Dalmacija (Zadar, Split etc.) but its easier to get the Zagreb (Lučko ramp) and from there continue to Dalmacija...

Direction Pula and Istra in general

So, you have to take again bus, but number 22 and 23 (Direction Matulji). But these buses are on another bus terminal (you can ask everyone on the street, everybody knows). You can also ask bus driver to leave you on a bus stop near Euro Petrol (gas station). On the right side of gas station you will see the road wich guides you to the main spot. You have to walk less then 1 km till there.

Direction Ljubljana and Slovenia

One of the best solutions to get the border and in general Ljubljana etc is to take the train from main train station in Rijeka. You have to pay max. 3 euros ticket for Ilirska Bistrica (Slovenia) and after one hour long drive with train you have to walk from train station to the main spot. Ask local people there and they will show you how to come there. Its a 5-10 minutes walk from the train station. When you reach the spot you can easy get a ride to Postojna and then Ljubljana.
