Got a ride without moving a finger. People here are very nice.

Good spot. A lot of cars. Many of them just go back to the city and taxis will ennoy you with their honking, but someone wil eventualy stop, probably even further then for me.

You can get here from Marrakesh by bus for 8dihrams. Good spot if you want to go to the mountains.

I can recommend going by this road along the coast if you aim for the south(Essaouira). It's a little slower then the highway probably, but it is a beatiful landscape and you get picked up pretty quickly by locals only. People took me for just a few kilometers everytime, but i think it's way more fun and it really was worth it. Also if your late on time or tired, you can get taxis from every bigger city for 30dihram maximum. Try it!!

Didnt work out for me, in summer, mostly family cars go through here. A lot of cars though, so probably could catch a ride if i stood there for little bit longer. Ended up going by bus to Marrakesh (60dihrams only!!)

We were hitchhiking in a group of four. We tried to hitchhike at the roundabout near the highway entrance, but there was also a police checkpoint and the police officer told us to go to the toll gate and hitchhike there. We were quite surprised, because walking onto the highway is, of course, forbidden. The police officers on the toll gate were annoyed at first, but when we explained the situation they let us hitchhike there. After a short time we got a ride to Casablanca. The driver took all four of us. He spoke only Arabic, but he was able to use a translator. He dropped us off at the coast and bought us dinner.

Practically all the cars were taxis, full or going only to nearby villages. After 30 minutes of waiting, we decided to take a taxi to Demnate for 30 MAD.

Midnight on a Sunday, five of us hitchiking up to Taghazout Bay with no sign. Against all odds, got a lift within two minutes. Hitchiking is extremely common and makes more sense than hailing a cab and getting scammed

Good spot to head north. Bit of space to pull over, Moroccans will always find a way to stop regardless of this. Lift to Imsouane within 5 minutes.

Waited quite a while with a sign, only got to the next village 20kms down the road, there waited way over an hour, got a minor heatstroke, turned back.

Waited here over an hour with a sign, noone stopped, boiled to death on the pavement, turned back to Essaouria to take the bus. :(

Post multaj malfacilaĵoj tiun tagon, mi fine alvenis al ĉi tiu granda stalo, kie multaj homoj haltas survoje al Marakeŝo, kaj post duonhoro mi sukcesis trovi rektan buson, feliĉe. Ĝi lasis min en Medino, proksime al la gastejo kie Chay loĝis, por ke ni povu komenci niajn aventurojn en Maroko.

Kelkaj kamionistoj haltis por ni, kaj ili pensis, ke ili povus helpi nin eĉ pli proksime al Ĥauen, sed la komunikado estis tre malfacila ĉar ili ne parolis bone la francan kaj mi ne parolas la marokan. Fine, post rigardado de la mapoj, ili lasis nin tie ĉar ili iris pli supren laŭ la montoj. Estus pli bone se ni elirus pli frue. Do Chay kaj mi piediris al la benzinstacio, sed ne antaŭ ol Chay aĉetis rozkoloran ombrelon por protekti sin kontraŭ la suno kaj ankaŭ por altiri atenton.

Ni restis tie provante aferojn kaj parolante, ni amikiĝis, kaj unu knabo provis haki mian Graphene OS sen sukceso... la aŭtoj pasis tre malrapide kaj iu kondukis nin al la alia flanko de la ponto, ankaŭ ĉar Chay ne plu povis elteni promeni en la suno je ĉi tiu horo.

Lots of place for a car to pull up. Judging from my previous experience and knowledge now my short wait was just luck. Abdul, a desert camp owner from Merzouga. He was registered to take tourists. We still got pulled over and asked for registrations three times adding an hour to our drive. Managed to just get my lift before sun set and Abdul let me stay at his desert camp. Book with Morocco Tours Now!!

this spot is from hitchwiki. we wanted to go towards algeciras/morocco, there was very little traffic and kind of hostile drivers. also 43 degrees in the shadow. gave up and ended up taking the train, whicj was around 30€. I think it should be possible to hitchhike from here, but certainly not easy. consider other options maybe. good luck!

A good spot to pull over. We hitchhiked here twice (in March 2024 and February 2023), and in both instances, we waited for about 45 minutes. The waiting time heavily depends on the time of day. It's one of the places in the desert region of Morocco where we waited the longest for a ride. Nevertheless, we had some of the most memorable hitchhiking experiences here in Morocco (with a film producer heading to a Netflix film set in the middle of nowhere and with a super lovely Moroccan couple heading towards Zagora very late in the evening).

Not surprisingly, it's super easy to pull over. That's where we caught one of the coolest rides we ever had in Morocco. (March 2024)

Got a ride, from Marc and Eve, that initially should have just taken me to Salamanca but ended up taking me all the way to Seville on my way to Morocco. Good spot honestly.

For Trucks to Morocco. If you check google maps, you'll see this is just in front of a roundabout where trucks are slow, some are stopping there for a while. The ones that are driving though go strait on the ferry (based on one experience).

Low traffic due to road end in Mhamid. After a struggling hike i got a ride directly to the desert. Dont waste your time. Better take a bus from Zagora, Morocco is cheap!!!

Huge petrol station.You can easily catch a truck going to Spain, Portugal, even to Morocco. Many people use this highway to get to Lyon, Marseille and Nice.

I arrived at 18.30 and it was almost dark on that time. I waited one hour and some guys from Morocco pick me up to Stockholm. You can walk around 10 minutes to the bigger road. It's not a big airport and that might be a problem to catch a car.

Coming from Morocco, you can feel it instantly, it's another pair of shoes! We waited here for an hour to go north to Seville, but fortunately a guy stopped and suggested another spot. This spot is not good at all, lot of traffic, but no eye-contact, no one really cares about hitchhikers here, plus we totally missed the place.

Gas station, not so much traffic through this road, but got a lift with some tourists and their private guide tour. Nevertheless you can meet some locals and get shown around and hosted just by chance. Wonderful Morocco :)

The Border at Mauritania side close at 18:00 so please try to arrive there earlier. I got there at 17:00 and there is no place to sleep on the Mauritania side only in the Morocco side (at least when i was there Summer 2013)

Haven't tried the place yet, but it seems to be an excellent spot: Ferries from Morocco and elsewhere spit out a vast number of cars that head further north. This is the one spot inside the city where there is no local traffic and plenty of space and time to stop.

The place to stop when you come back from Morocco. Me and a friend waited for a car going to France from here at the end of the summer. Lots of cars, lots of full cars full of Moroccan families but after 6 hours, we got our car to Baiona (Bayonne) ! Pretty sure you can get it faster, especially if you're alone hitchin' ! If it doesn't work at all, there is a bus going to San Sebastian for 50 euros, leaving around 5 p.m everyday if i remember well. (i'm not sure of the hour, but sure of the price, which is the 2010 price)
