I was really lucky. I got dropped off at the gas station but I wasn't in the mood to ask people after a long day of hitchhiking. I wanted to try the ramp to Nuremberg but a guy picked me up on the way there.rating: 5/5, wait: 0 min, ride: 63 km ↖

This is a great spot for hitchhiking! My original plan was to hitchhike to Kaiserslautern via Nuremberg. After just five minutes, a car stopped, but I turned it down since it was only a very short-distance ride. Twenty minutes later, I got lucky with an 80 km ride to Augsburg, which I gladly accepted and decided to adjust my route for the day.This spot is also excellent for night hitchhiking from Munich.

Got dropped on this bus station. Cars there are going really fast! Nobody was stopping and mostly local traffic. But I was very very lucky and caught a direct lift to Nuremberg!rating: 3/5, wait: 40 min 👍, ride: 690 km ←

I arrived around 20:30 on a Friday in summer, very glad for the free bathroom (not super clean but not too bad) and free drinking water. Had a bit of a hard time finding a ride into Nuremberg despite lots of traffic since most people were going to Munich. Found someone to take me to an U-Bahn station nearby (Herrnhütte.)rating: 2/5, wait: 30 min 💬, ride: 15 km ↓

Despite being quite a big service station with a big parking it was hard finding people going to Nuremberg - lots of other friendly travellers though who seemed genuinely bummed to go a different way (even got some van coffee.)I think I did pick a fairly good day and time with a Friday in summer between 18:30 and 19:30 but still. Bavaria just doesn't seem as hitchhiking-friendly to me (as a first-time hitcher.) Found two nice older ladies to take me eventually.

It is a spot on traffic lights. We stood next to crosswalk. We had sign Wurzburg and thumbs up. Its good place, because there is big traffic and also cars have to stop at traffic lights, so it is easy to interact with them and they have also time to decide. There is a space behind the light to stop, so i think it is not dangerous or risky for drivers to stop. Also people from Nuremberg told us that this spot is good and kind of “famous” for hitchhiking. I recommend you to write a sign and be funny, use your hands and smile. Impress drivers, it really works.Finally we drive to Bamberg instead Wurzburg, because we just wanted to go away from Nuremberg, but it is possible to catch something this way.

This place is incredibly busy but.... not effective for some reason. There is only one gas station for both sides of the highway so only a little part of the traffic will go your direction. I waited 3 and a half hours for a long ride to Nuremberg. It is good to sleep over though. Plenty of space to pitch your tent!―Emanuele19956, September 2016

June 2016, plenty of ants, but this is one of the best spots I've even been to. Two guys, a car stopped after 5 mins, going to Stuttgart (although we had a sign Nür), and then after next 10 mins a guy took us to Nuremberg. Get a sign!―ESko, June 2016

This is a great spot if you need a ride to wards nuremberg. Been there for a couple of times and it has always been a good spot. You can also walk toward the parking spot from the local super market and try your luck there.―Anonymous, September 2015

It's a large gas station with a restaurant and a parking lot. A very good place to hitchhike as you have the parking lot and the station to talk with drivers.Directions: From Nuremberg take the S2 (mostly not controlled) train to Schwabach. Go through the Laubenhaid forest/park and towards the highway, follow the paths.

monday night at 5/6 pm:many going to czech republic, munich, austria. i needed A9 north (berlin) - no chance! but it's easy to get a lift to A9 southwards and then be dropped off at an "autohof" (the gas stations with mcdonalds and such by the exits, so can be reached from both ways of the highway) 2 exits south of nuremberg. from there it was easy to get up north. half an hour detour i would say, so definitely easier than waiting for cars going north here!
