Lot of people willing to take us, but everyone was going to Vienna or Linz, we wanted to go to Graz or Slovenia or somwhere west. After 1.5h we got lift to Italy.

Fast traffic, but if you stand at the very beginning of the possible stop area, cars should have enough space to slow down and pull over. Sign: "L" (as Linz)

I waited only 6 minutes (solo guy, no sign, Saturday morning) and during that time 2 cars stopped. I would call that a success :D I was going to Salzburg direction. It's better to head just to Linz as there is a great hitchspot in Ansfelden, where I continued. Many cars continue from Linz to Germany (via Passau), that's why I think it's a bit more complicated to seek for direct ride to Salzburg from here.

The cars don't have a perfect opportunity to stop but with the drive threw beeing directly beside the chance of finding somebody driving to Vienna/Linz is high

We got here by bus from Linz. Trafic was good here even at weekend. We got ride after few minutes of standing with a sign.

Great spot, around 40 cars per minute on a Friday midday. Our sign said Munich and we got dropped off close to Linz.

Terrible spot to Graz direction. Everyone went to Linz direction or just to Vienna. From this place we (couple) moved just a few kilometers (20 minute ride) to gas station under Vienna.

Direction Linz- I waited a lot, at the end gave up. Mostly local traffic

Great to go towards Vienna or Linz even later in the evening. If you're going south (Ljubjana for example), DO NOT stop here, we met people trying and being stranded there for 5h+

Waited 10 min for a ride to Linz. Thanks Alma and Emina. Use a sign it's better

Good Position for Vienna and St. Pölten /Linz. Man cars pass for the perfect ride.

good spot to hitch a ride to linz/wien. mcdonald’s next door. better than trying to get to the ENI station down on A1 m, there’s no back road to it

On paper it looked like a perfect spot to go to Linz. But only old cuples and familys stop there. When sun sat, one driver saw me shivering and took pity on me. The drive was 2h long.

I saw a lot of bad reviews for the gas station. So i went to this traffic light and after 5 minutes somebody took me to Linz center. It is easier to hitchhike from the other side of Linz to go to Czech.

First, we tried a sign saying MUNICH, after two hours it started raining and still nothing. Then we tried a sign with LINZ, again two hours and nothing. Finally, we tried just VIENNA with a thumbs up—still nothing. In the end, we took a RegioJet bus to Vienna and from there we hitchhiked overnight to Munich. For us, it was a very bad spot, but give it a try and see for yourself :)

Had Linz on my sign and got told that nobody would go that direction. After 15 minutes we got a ride to St. Pölten. Lots of place to stop and much traffic.
