About the Lviv – Szczecin route
The Lviv – Szczecin bus is one of the longest western Ukrainian routes into Poland: from the country's main western hub to the far north-west edge of Poland, right by the German border. The route crosses at Shehyni–Medyka or Krakovets–Korczowa, then runs across the whole of Poland — past Rzeszow, Katowice and Poznan — to Baltic Szczecin. Given the length of the trip, passengers are mostly labour migrants heading to port and logistics jobs in the region, plus travellers continuing on to Szczecin-Goleniów Airport (SZZ) with low-cost flights across Europe. Because of the long distance and niche demand, tickets on this route are sold as a reservation with payment to the driver at boarding — online card payment is not yet available. Check the current schedule and departure dates before you travel.
