Large service station towards Lausanne and Geneva. Best is to stand on the exact marked spot with a sign, just in front of the gas station. Cars leaving the parking lot will pass by and whenever there are people filling up gas you can quickly go ask them.rating: 5/5, wait: 20 min 💬+🪧

Either ask around at the gas stations or stand at the side of the road, excellent visibility and space to pull over. We got to Geneva fairly quickly, probably even easier to go towards France, many french come here for fuel as it is cheaperrating: 4/5, wait: 12 min 👍, ride: 12 km ↙

Literally the second we arrived we got stopped by a police car and forced to walk back to the entry of the highway, threatening us to give us a 135€ fine if they saw us again. Anyway, little tip: All Swiss cars are on the right side of the péage, because the left lanes are reserved for telepéage which usually only french cars use. So, I imagine it's rather easy to get a ride towards Geneva as they all drive through the right lane and can stop next to yourating: 3/5

Very good spot to get far rides, because all the tourists from chateau de gruyère pass here. Nice place to stop for cars, but they can't see you from very far. Still, they are going slow and have reasonable time to pull over. We got lucky with a direct ride to geneva.rating: 5/5, wait: 10 min 🪧

It's a very shady place to hitchhike there. To get there you need to walk a lot, climb over the fence and run through very active road. It's not allowed to hitchhike there, but there are no other good options, but possible to go futher to Bulle/Genevarating: 2/5, wait: 30 min 🪧, ride: 25 km ↓
