There is a little cutout just before the roundabout. Ist short, but the cars are slow. Waitet here for 15 minutes with a sign for Göttingen.

Sunday afternoon:
Nearly everybody was going south here, but only a few people had 2 free seats for us. After 20 minutes we found a couple that gave us a lift to Göttingen.

For Chemnitz and the center of Leipzig, this is a very good spot. But for Kassel/ Göttingen we waited 1,5 hours. It was the thrid car to head this destination in this period of time. The journey from Leipzig took us very long as well. Pack some food and a good load of time for this one.

you can go there from göttingen hauptbahnhof by taking bus 130. it costs 3,20€ and takes you to "raseanger", which is the closest bus station near the roadhouse/gas station.

Going to Göttingen/Hannover, better get off one place before, in Guxhagen.

The fuelstation has closed in southern direction(northern it's as it was). There is still a parking lot and I had luck with a truck driver, but, coming from Göttingen, you better ignore this station imho. (next on A7 is Hasselberg).

A lot of people going only to Hildesheim or Göttingen, but in the end got a ride more south.

This is also the place to change cars if you're going south to A7 (Göttingen) via A39.

55min wait for a ride to Göttingen. Mainly traffic into Hannover city and mainly no single drivers!

If I'm not mistaken, this is the main service area between Erfurt and the A5. You can change directions here, and get towards Berlin/Saxonia/Poland or Frankfurt/Göttingen

a busstop on 'dresdener straße' (L 3237) you can reach with you own "hitchhiker's busline" no (???) from the city center of kassel. cars on this road are driving here sometimes too fast, there is a lot of traffic and every third- or fourth car will continue its journey on autobahn "A 7" (north in the direction of 'göttingen'/'hannover' or south to 'frankfurt'). the busstop makes it very safe (for drivers) and legal (for you) to stand on. on my personal rating from "1" (very-very poor) to "10" (excellent) i will rate this spot a "7 to 8".

a lot of traffic comming through on "A 7" at 'tank und rastanlange göttingen'. you can also north/south change the sides of "A 7" via a bridge. safe even at night with enough traffic even later in the evening. you should not be waiting for longer than 10 minutes on any side ('göttingen east' or '- west') of this 'rastanlage'.

Petrol station southwards. A great place to head south to Hannover, Göttingen, Kassel. Or maybe east towards Berlin.
Waiting time: 5-? min.

Direction: Leipzig, Halle, Magdeburg, Hanover, even Göttingen

small gas station, but last resting place before leipzig. To be closed within a year from today. Not too much traffic but asking people helps you out
