Good spot, lots of charging cars, much preferable to when I was dropped off in flensburg.

Not much space for cars to stop on. Best option for them is to stop on the bike lane in the round about so not ideal.. However traffic wasn't busy so it worked out. Good thing is that in rural Denmark it usually pretty easy to find a ride. People are helpful and down to earth. Though.. I am a white cis man, so I can't say if it is as easy for everyone..

Good place. Stood outside the entrance to the shop because it was raning. Otherwise, I would recommend standing closer to the exit of the service area to have less of a 'facer'-vibe.

Good spot. Room for cars to stop in the emergency lane on the on-ramp.

Had just finished writing my sign when someone picked me up. :) Romanian guy working in Denmark. So friendly! However not much space for cars to stop on but they can park in the emergency lane at the on-ramp. So good but not ideal.

Was walking towards the Circle K up towards the highway and someone picked me up to give me a nice little ride to the high way on-ramp. Okay place because cars were slow due to the intersection and there is a not-much-used bike lane you can stand on. However, I highly recommend AGAINST standing on the bike lanes in Denmark in general.

Stood at the exit from the service area. Got a ride from there to Kolding (sign said Fredericia but I was going South so no problem). Cars are driving slow and there is good space to stop.

Pretty good. A little fewer cars than usual this Monday morning than there usually are. But ended up getting a ride out to Karlslunde Vest.

I don't like this spot. Never managed to get a ride from here. Both times I tried, I ended up going to the Q8 gas station further down the road and found a ride there.

Just walked by the side of the road with the thumb out. Said to the driver I was going to Klitmøller. She took me some of the way.

Traffic in basically all directions I usually prefer places with traffic in just one direction so if you have the option for that that should be better than here but got lucky after 40min Waited with a Kolding/Denmark sign and got a ride north of Kolding If your heading to Denmark always watch out to get dropped at the next gas station especially if you're used the the frequency of German gas stations because there aren't many Usually it's way easier to get a ride at a gas station than it is in a city so better get dropped off 40km before and being at a gas station than taking this 40km ride (just trust me i learnt it the hard way) Good luck and have fun :)

As I was hitching here, it was pretty late in the day and pretty late in the season as well, but still, a decent number of cars were going south. Some local traffic, some foreigners (plenty of fishermen going back south). Usually pretty stuffed cars, but after around half an hour, I found a car going to southern Denmark.

If you want to go to Denmark just walk up to cars with danish lisence plates and ask them. I got a ride from the second car i asked. Gasoline is currently cheaper in sweden than in denmark so many danish cars stop here to fill up their cars before they go back to denmark.

It was evening and suprisingly low traffic going to berlin. Liek eveyone were turning away on the next highway exit which is crazy. But eventually found a guy just sitting in a car and eating burger from mcdonalds and asked and he agreed because he was driving from ukraine border to denmark and would love company. And it was super nice for me because i was trying to go to hamburg

Going north, this spot doesn't feel so great, but it worked for me. I was looking for a car, taking the ferry when two guys pulled in, looked at the ferry prices, and decided to take the bridge all the way to Copenhagen. If going to Denmark, I would advise taking the A7 rather than the A1.

Got drop of here. Not that good place. There is small traffic. But I got lucky and some good spontanisu people from belgium made a trip for me. Btw asiking around is your only option here and it is easyer to go to denmark then north

Probably one of the Best Spots in Denmark, as it apparently is the biggest crossing in Denmark. Not Even 10 Minuten and I got a Ride near to Odense. Stand exactly there with a sign and try to Signal Both ways

―JamonWithRamon, August 2026

Stand there with a sign. Good spot, for picked up to Fredericia, one of the biggest crossings in Denmark and an amazing spot . Good if youre going to Kopenhagen.

Great place for getting across the bridge to Denmark. Lots of Danish, German and Dutch cars. We asked around at the gas station and were quickly offered a ride to Copenhagen by a Czech couple.

Great place to get over German - Denmark borders. Many danish people are going for groceries there (cheap beers and chocolates) But a lot of times very full, be careful on Sundays, the shops opens at 12.

―AdrianCheeseman, August 2026

52.38843, 9.9966

Great place but for some reason cursed. Many cars, slow cars a lot of place for stoping. For some reason all the cars were full so waited there for 6 hours. After that a guy took me all the way to the danish borders so that was fine. Good place for Amsterdam + (guy I met waited for 20 minutes) Not so good for Denmark - (me 6 hours)

Cara are very slow thanks to a speed bump. Not too much space for stopping but enough.Used a 5km sign to get at least on the next service area on the highway but git a ride to Denmark anyway.

―Tobias, August 2026

I was trying to get to Denmark but no luck here, waited more than two hours, a few cars stopped but nobody was going there or able to take me. Nice spot to nap though

Took us to Denmark. A lot of scandinavian plates, so just go around asking. We took a car on friday afternoon, so there were a lot of families. We had luck with an old couple that had 2 seats at the back.

Services were closed when I was there (and look like it could be permanent). Petrol station is open but most of the traffic was just going in to Hamburg. If you’re going for Denmark I had much better luck at Rastplatz Holmmoor on the other side of Hamburg

―Chriswally, July 2026

53.05195, 9.02376

When I got there it was pretty busy. Probably also because it was vacation season. Anyways after asking around I got a ride with some dutch people up until Puttgarden onto the ferry. Traffic towards Denmark will come through here. (246km)
