J'ai attendu 2h sans que personne ne me prenne avec un panneau la Rochelle, j'ai peut-être juste pas eu de chance cette fois là :/ pourtant il y a une belle zone d'arrêt et les voitures ne peuvent aller qu'au nord ou au sudrating: 1/5, wait: 120 min 🪧

We were asking for Bordeaux, but got till the exit for La rochelle. It definitely is a short haul spot. Waited for around 1 hour.―Kilingar, May 2015

Few cars on this motorway. Petrol stations are very quiet. I was hitching to Nantes, most cars going to La Rochelle. Finally i got a direct car, but i waited 45mn.―Dylg, November 2014

The one and only place to be when you want to go to Rochefort or La Rochelle.The road goes straight there, just after the roundabout there is big stopping place for cars, you're a bit downhill so cars can so you from far away.

Good spot if you wanna go to the south (direction La rochelle). Don't stay here if you plan to go to north!―Anonymous, September 2012

We tried to hitchhike before the entrance of the highway (close to the roundabout),but we wasted a lot of time. Then, we decided to go to the national road. and we got a lift after 5 minutes. Better here if you wanna go the the nord (La Rochelle for exemple...). You'll need more time, but it's easier than highway!―Anonymous, September 2012

Direction : Angers in the north or La Rochelle/Niort/ La Roche s/ Yon in the south.The spot is a toll. I got a ride to Angers in 15 min even if the traffic was quite slow (in the beginning of the afternoon in week).
If it does not work for Angers, you can try on the national road just next to the toll.
