Easy to hitch to Clifden. Maybe a little bit harder for the way to Galway but lots of space for traffic to stop. Plenty of traffic as well for a rural area.―Anonymous, September 2018

A bit long to go there from the city center. But I really think this is the best place to Galway.―Scry, July 2016

Good spot to reach Clifden and Galway. It's a good idea to wait tourists getting out from Inishbofin's ferry, more chances to get a lift ! Waiting time : 20min―Anonymous, June 2016

The motorway junction was super busy one afternoon so I decided to walk up to here. Got a lift all the way to Galway pretty quickly!No hard shoulder, but I stood in front of a wide entrance...

Got a ride all the way to Galway from here! Visibility is not great as there is a hill in the way, but cars are going slowly as they turn left from the R344 (most cars will go in the Galway direction).―Anonymous, June 2016

Towards Galway/Sligo/Mayo. Stood by sliplane. Took a while, but might have been bad luck. Maybe better to walk up R407 a little...―Anonymous, June 2016

Great place to go to either Limerick city, M18 Ennis/Galway or M7 Dublin. A sign might help because drivers might be going in any one of the 3 directions. Its almost the last stop before the motorway starts.―Darach, September 2015

A 10 min walk out from town but it is worth it, hard shoulder for cars to stop. Toward Limerick, Galway.―Anonymous, September 2014

Good place to hitch if you want to go in direction of Spiddal, or Connemara by the coast road. You can take a bus, to get closer, or it's one hour walking from galway city center.―Anonymous, November 2013

Great for getting into Galway, just follow this road until the sidewalk ends. Loads of cars, plenty of room for them to pull over, we got picked up in less than 5 min :)―Anonymous, May 2013
