Walking and hitchhiking here feels unwise and dangerous here, but it is legal I think (no highway). Police doesnt like it, but i never had issues with them here (they shouldnt see you crossing, I think). It is an unpleasant place I dont want to use to go to Apeldoorn or Utrecht. Sometimes I am here on my way to Nijmegen, it does work, I like the place under the bridge just before exit to Arnhem sounth and nijmegen

Very small gas station, didn't get as much traffic as an average gas station, but it was okay. It's just before the highway junction, so you can change to the A28 here or stick to the A1. I didn't have to wait all that long for a ride towards Hilversum. Also got an offer towards Utrecht

Find someone who is dropping people off and hope they are leaving utrecht, lots of people with full cars and not leaving the city.

Okay so we we arrived at Gare du Lyon at in the evening, got some kebab and continued our journey north. We knew about this station from the hitch south. From gare the lion we took the train to fosses and than a connecting bus to survilliers. The public transport trip took about an hour and costs 7,50 pp. We think it's worth the effort, considering the fact that we had a tent to camp at the station. From survilliers it's about 30 minutes walking through the industrial areas, which was quite scetch in the dark with all the cars racing by. Once we got to the petrol station we found a hole in the fence to enter the station, which was unnessecairy since there was also just a walkway a bit further. There are some nice grassy bushes to camp a bit away from the people on the station. In the morning we started hitching at 9 and after an hour we got a ride from this cool Canadian band all the way to Utrecht. Shout-out to Cola™️ for putting us on the guest list, you guys are great.

Great spot if you need to go towards Utrecht, especially during the morning rush hour. There's a traffic light, and most people turning right will be heading for the N11. There is a small 'inlet' next to the road where a car could stop while not hindering other traffic.

Great spot to hitchhike out of Amsterdam towards Utrecht. Walk up next to the highway ramp and then there is a wide shoulder. Had a big sign and waited only 3 minutes.

Bus stop direction east to Wageningen, close to Rhenen trainstation (train to/from Utrecht). Cars drive slowly and can easily stop at the bus stop. The bus to Wageningen didn't go, so I put my thumb in the air, got a ride to Wageningen almost instantly once the traffic lights turned green.
