On the road just outside the gas station is also a good spot. The highway onramp seems to be useless.

On a saturday night, the only people stopping for me were going back to Aachen. Eventually I took a ride back to the border, used the pedestrian bridge to change sides, and hitch hiked to Liege.

Took me two hours to find someone to go in the direction of Liège. To be fair, it was a bad time, Mid-November on a weekday when it was super foggy, but most people were just going to Aachen or North to the Netherlands or Antwerp. So if you wanna go there, it's a good spot, I guess. However the person who took me was super nice and even made a small detour for me.

Good starting spot to get to Aachen and beyond to Belgium or NL, easy to reach with public transport too. I wasn't even there at a good time (Mid-November on a weekday, very foggy weather) and still found a ride to Aachen pretty quickly by asking around.

Tried to get a ride to Aachen, waited about 2 hours and gave up. Instead took a train.
A lot of people travelling to Belgium.
For some reason today (15/08/24) isn't a day for hitchhiking. Had to wait a (very) long time for my other rides as well.

Walkable from the nearby S-Bahn Station for fellow hitchhikers that prefer to start at a highway service station.

Got a ride to the station before Aachen (first car I asked) right away, and easily made it to Ghent (my final destination) in Jan 23.

You can hold up a sign at the street and there is good space to stop. Lots of cars though did not go to Aachen. One can also ask directly stopping cars at the gas station.

Cars can see you from afar, they are relatively fast, but as it is going uphill afterwards, they stop. There is also enough space on the emergency lane. Never waited long, I always went direction Aachen.

I was trying to get a ride towards Aachen and failed. When I changed the sign to Cologne, I've got a lift in a few minutes. Although I agree that it is not the best spot.

More cars seem to take the E34 to Turnhout and Eindhoven than the E313. Also very few cars that pass by Liège. Most German cars take the E313 and 314 to Aachen.

A rather big petrol station. Some cars are going to Aachen or anywhere else. Just read the license plates and ask drivers heading to your direction.

Good for getting towards Hasselt/Genk/Liege/Aachen.
Mostly local drivers, so you can hop from ramp to ramp.
