A good spot, not great. If you’re coming from Krakow, hitching at MOP Aleksandrowice, I would recommend you continue hitching there. The flow of traffic here is much lower; a steady trickle rather than the gushing flow of Aleksandrowice. Still got a ride in less than an hour more than half the distance to Berlin, all the same.

Arrived at midnight and asked drivers pulling in for rides toward Germany. Lots of false starts and difficulty given the hour, but a good ride to Berlin (Michendorf) within about two hours in the early morning/late night I consider reasonable. There was quite a bit of traffic given the time, though much of it couples with packed cars. Hitching in the day I don’t think you’d be waiting very long.

Lots of people going different ways (Germany, Netherlands) and far away. The did not always have enough space but a guy that went to Berlin took us in less than 30 minutes.

Great spot, the traffic is constant, I hardly had time to even make my sign, the cars and trucks passing without pause. I had an offer to near Katowice within five minutes and took the second offer ten minutes later when they said they’d take me to the next big gas station. I was on my way to Berlin and I would say that this was the better spot than where they took me (Miejsce Obsługi Podróżnych Wirek). I took the city bus from Krakow, there is indeed a fence you have to jump. In the forest to the right of the gate (facing it) you can do so unseen. There’s a spot with a cement post that makes it a bit easier, and I took out my wrench and undid the top screws securing the fence to the post there, making it even easier. Lots of holes that have clearly been repaired, check to see if there’s a new one.

We are been there for 1,5h and no one go to Berlin. We are take the bus to another spot

Realy nice spot. We have writen Berlin and Hamburg. We are two man.

Perfect to Come to Berlin

This is THE spot to get to Dresden/Berlin. Did it a few times now. Not a lot of german number plates, but the vast number of cars going in that direction compensates for that.

waited for more than two hours on a monday morning, inscriptions on the nearby column are telling the stories of other waiting hitchhikers and my ride told me that she had to wait longer and longer on this spot during the last years, the circuit still seems to be the best option towards Berlin

Great rest area towards north, decent amount of traffic, few trucks, wait times of 5-25 minutes expected, most cars are doing long distance, easy to find a ride to Berlin

Wanted to go North, to Hamburg. Lot of cars go east to Berlin. Decided to change spot. A young couple kindly drop us of near A352 at airport. Thx Assan who work at gas station for advices and help.

Hitchhiked in a group of three on Easter Monday and asked around at the parking lot/picnic area. There were plenty of cars heading to Berlin and we were offered various lifts for just one or two until we found a car with space all of us. If you are arriving from the South on the B 195, your driver doesn’t even need to enter the A 24. The route shown on Google Maps would mean an unnecessary detour if they just want to drop you without using the gas station. Instead, tell them to drive up to the rest area from the back via the street “Am Heisterbusch”. The street is blocked for cars just at the entry to the rest area so this is a great spot to be dropped off and will save them 15 minutes of unnecessary driving on the Autobahn.

good spot to get out of berlin, I got dropped here by a friend. Not many cars on a morning but still enough.

Was easy to hitchhike there. There were a lot of cars, and the could stop right behind me. Good spot for Berlin or Leipzig, Chemnitz

We had a sign for Berlin but were aiming for Denmark, got picked up by a lovely couple who took us all the way to Flensburg and let us stay with them overnight.

Likely a good spot for Berlin and Leipzig, but I had little luck here going in the Chemnitz direction. It was one of the last hitches of my journey. I looked a bit desperate, but one elderly couple took mercy on me and took me in.

Good spot, i got a ride to Berlin. the bus station is a very nice help because the cars can stop there. i had a sign "BERLIN" with me

Waited with a sign for Berlin, Leipzig, Erfurt. There is space to pull in and lots of cars. Enjoy!
