Its one of the best spots to go south from Burgos. The cars are going quite slow and have a place to stop even though the trafic wasnt huge it was okay. Two cars stoped in like 5 minutes going to Lermo, but we wanted to go straight to Madrid so we waited for half an hour and than got a ride to Madrid

It is the best spot in Miranda. There are lot of cars going back to town but anyone going to Burgos have to go through here. The roundabout is nice and the care have a place to stop. We tried one nitght between 7-9 pm it didint work but than tried the next morning and after 2 hours got a ride to Burgos. You have to be patiet here the trafic isnt so big

It is a good spot, you need to have a big sign because the roundabout is quite big, but the cars have a time to stop. Lot of people go to Miranda then tu Burgos

One male 40+, no sign, one big and one small backpacks, very sunny day. On my way from Burgos to Subic.
A few metres after the "Thank you for visit"arch. A good spot. Just before a bridge, but enough space to stop. Not very busy traffic. After 15 minutes I got a long ride my destination - Subic.

A very good spot. Loads of space to stop and good visibility. There was very little traffic, considering it's the Philippines. A car even 1-2 minutes. After 30 minutes I got a long ride to San Filipe.

Well, it wasn't hitchhiking per se, since I was enjoying my walk through villages, towards Burgos, when I guy stopped and asked me if I needed a lift. So, since I got a lift it couldn't, right 😁

Last gas station in France before the border. I wouldn't recommend to stop to the border. I would recommend to have at least few sentences in spanish and portuguese to ask driver, it makes a huge difference (see hitchwiki.org)
I luckily got a ride to Burgos. end of august

On s'est mis ici suite aux différents avis de la carte, et bah on aura pas eu autant de chance...
On s'est fait refouler par tous les chauffeurs routiers de la station , il y en a beaucoup et dispersés partout sur l'aire. La plupart allaient à Tarragone , Valencia ou pas très loin de Barcelone.
Les voitures n'allaient pas très loin non plus. On est tombés sur un mec qui allait à Gibraltar mais qui n'avait pas de places dans son camping-car , la poisse...
Globalement on alternait tour des camions / tour des voitures / pouce à la sortie de l'aire. Un russe s'est arrêté et nous a emmené d'une seule traite à Valencia.
On visait Saragosse , Madrid ou Burgos; le spot semble pas trop mal pour bouger autour de Barcelone, mais c'est possible de tomber sur la pépite qui peut vous emmener loin !
5h30 d'attente.

I waited here for 2 hours and a half before giving up. It was on a Monday morning so maybe not the best Time to find a car. I tried to go Burgos the spot is ok just before the highway with some space to stop.

The gas station has the advantage to be accessible by foot in one hour from Burgos. However, it's quite small. I was there on a Sunday and there were not so many people. I preferred hitching at the entrance of the highway rather than the station to maximise the number of cars that could see me.

I tried asking around at the gas station but all the cars were full or we're going towards Salamanca. There are a lot of truck drivers and foreigners (France, UK, Portugal, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland...) at the gas station, but many are families. After I decided moving to the entrance of the highway, a Spanish guy exited from the highway, and promised me to take me to Valladolid (my sign). Turns out he was going further and I ended up in Burgos.

Not the busiest service station but I got suuuper lucky as I got a ride to Burgos from the first people I asked. There was maybe 3 trucks and about 20 cars at 11am on a monday. Camping here is a bit awkward too, closest woods are ~30min walk away.

There is a stop Light, where cars nee to stop, so you can throw your thumb out and walk along the cars to wait for a positive reaction. Just by the stoplight is also a big paper bin, where you can take some cardboard from to make a sign. I Made one direction León, (Bilbao, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Burgos). After around 10 Stoplight phases a guy took me to Arrasate/Mondragon near Vitoria.
