not so bad, kind of a game of chance with the traffic lights. waited here with a sign that said salzburg / linz and finally a guy picked me up and drive me just to the closest gas station on the a9 where i then caught a ride with a truck to wels. not the worst, not the best. was thinking of trying the gas station about a kilometer closer to graz, could be better there to ask around.

Took a long time, but eventually someone picked us up. We are going to Salzburg, but we’re fine with going to Linz first.

We got a direct ride to Budapest after around 20 minutes. There were many peoples at the gas refill or at the parking. Great spot to continue in direction of Passau, Linz, Wien and Budapest I would say.

Waited there for some hours. Nobody stopped to pick me up. Had a sign saying A1 --> Linz, Wien. Spot should theoretically be alright as there is enough place for cars to stop. I ended up taking the train to Vienna.

Horrible if you try to get to Linz or Vienna, amazing if you try to get south. Had to change spot because everybody went south.

Works quite well, however in the morning the majority of the car dont drive towards east on A1. We got a tide to Linz with a sign in our hands.

Wouldn’t call it my fastest time yet to catch a car, but the spot seemed good. But nobody really stopped (Monday morning during November). But in the end somebody stopped and gave me a ride next to Linz

We tried to hitch-hike at the exit but it was lunch time so we came inside to eat. While eating with our signs Salzburg and Linz, a guy came to us and so we got a ride to Salzburg. Always eat with you signs in sight !

Have been here 3 times during summer holiday. Quite a good spot direction Slovenia, direction Vienna was a bit difficult. Got a ride after 1.5 hours to Linz. You can stand there with a sign which is very good place because cars are slow and see you well. But its better to go around and ask the people.

This hitchhiking point can only be reached from the highway, however it is good if you are traveling towards Linz or Munich.

I was with a pannel Linz and a driver took me in less than 30 min, but it was friday afternoon ans there was a festival in Linz the week end, so probably I was lucky

Encountered nice and helpful drivers here. It's a small gas station so easy to ask and get a ride to Linz area, direction Vienna

Spent 4h at this spot trying to catch a ride to Vienna. Had a sign that said "Wien", maybe "Linz" would've been a better option, but regardless, even when trying without a sign, people wouldn't stop, not even give me a look.

Maybe more lucky on a sunny holiday, not a gloomy workday!
