Cars here goes slow and one by one from the control station. There is als palce to stop. Was stoping on the croswalk.

Easy like Sunday morning

Not much space on the roundabout, but they can stop on the side and go slow. Maybe I got lucky, but the first car that passed in direction Lleida stopped and took me there. People coming from the airport or the beach towards C25. Should be a good alternative to go direction Zaragoza without getting stuck in Barcelona.

There was quite a lot of cars going up the mountain pass so we did not even stop from our walk, just showed my thumb and the first car next to us stopped. Unbelievable. The spot is alright. Not that much of space to stop in the north direction, but it is visible and cars are going slow.

Place is good, it is on the junction of roads and in the corner, so cars do not go so fast. We were there in the totally dark evening were wery lucky that a car came down from the mountains and went to our direction. We saw the guy in the previous village so he recognised us and took as.

It was already late and the sun went down, but we tried to get to the mountains. All the cars were stoping in the village for the hotels, so only few cars continued our way. Spot is good, visible, at the end of village, but the timing was terrible and we waited. One guy could take us, but we did not understand what is his plan, so we let him go. We took another one, he took us just u few km to the next junction in the middle of nowhere, but there, a few minutes later, we met the previous guy that took us to the destination. What a unbelievable luck.

Good spot, I was going to Girona but couple of people offer me lift to Barcelona. I just asked in the airport bar for some cardboard and had my marker, you need no more mate

Got super lucky and was taken as soon as I came there. There's plenty of space for the cars, so if you're ready to stay under scorching sun, it's the best spot. I tried Repsol couple kilometers before, but nobody went out of the city

After 10 minutes I was picked up (with dog) and dropped in Auritz where I 'needed to be.

Looong wait, recommend to ask around, theyre friendly, but you got to get lucky

From my experience not the best spot in my life. I had sign "Portugal" and "Tui". Most of the cars are locals, I would say 90%. 2-3 cars stop and offered me a ride 10-15 km. At the end I accept ride to Vilagarcia. It wasn't good idea

Ok so this spot is really tricky, I’ve tried at at the bus stop, but people don’t really need to stop there so they just past. After a while I just thought screw it and went right into the big round about. Traffic was crazy and there are a lot of red light so I waited, and then after 30 min I got picked up. So I guess be patience:)

Plenty of climbers pass by with Camper Vans, so It is easy to get a ride during high season.

Great spot. Traffic goes slow after exiting the roundabout and there is ample space to pull over.

We were a guy and a girl with hiking backpacks. Traffic goes slow and there's enough of it. The third car that went by stopped for us.

Amazing spot, got a ride right ahead for 2 people

Well, we firstly tried to stop to Zaragoza, that didnt work out too well, then we switched to Valencia, after an hour we got a ride to a gas station near tarragona

Got picked up by a holidaying couple who dropped me off in Pont de Suert on their way to Aiguestortes

Got picked up by the third car to pass (second to stop) and taken to Castejon. Cars slow due to the roundabout and pedestrian crossing and most traffic from the valley passes here.

this was probably my bad or unluck, but i've noticed that if you pick the last gas station on the way to the city, no one will actually go the city in question. i had many offers to spain or further then montpellier, so in the end I accepted one and had to climb over the highway fence. wasn't hard or anything, but note that for Montpellier it can be problematic

The hardest thing about this place for you will be the competation. I found 3 others hichikers here who wanted to go the same direction. But even thou I got picked the last it was stil in a good timr. Most people goes to spain so it would be eseyer go to Barcelona from her but I wanted Carcasson (and got it)

Big station lots of traffic and a McDonald's, full with families today because vacation but also lots of trucks going to France and Spain. I waited at the end because it was too much for asking, but I'm sure it'll get you something faster. Had sign France, rejected a couple of rides to Strasbourg took one to Colmar.

Big Parking Space with a lot of cars. Mostly people on vacation. We (2) ask around and after half an hour found a long ride almost to Spain.

Got a ride fairly quick, there's enough space for cars to pull off but barely. Gotta be ready to jump in quick. Overall hitchhiking in and around Cuenca seems to work a lot better than the rest of Spain.

Difficult spot, lots of local traffic and people not stopping, tried with Spain, A2, Evora, Badajoz... Even próxima área de serviço, just to get on the move to a better spot, but didn't work either. At the end I srarted talking with a very nice trucker that happened to go same way as me and could drop me in Mérida.

I came to this spot after trying the other gas station on the second highway. Here I got a ride but after 4 hours. I think Tuesdays are weaker days, but who knows. Truck drivers denied me with answe that it's prohibited for them in Spain to take people. In the end old French couple gave me ride to Zaragoza. It's fairly good spot to stand with sign, but no shade.

Biggest parking for trucks I've ever seen, maybe 200-300 of them. Every single one was going to France or Spain so it was s perfect spot to catch someone that direction. But we were going further into Italy There was mostly traffic from trucks but also a few cars going through. We've been waiting there for 2 hours asking around and caught a 300km ride somewhere around 23:00 by a guy that drove a Porsche there for some rich kids from Monaco For me the best spot in that neighborhood to go hop on the highway

Stood there right after the toll station. Cars going to Montpellier might have a problem to stop for you cause they need to cross the way of people on the right. Police came in 15 minutes and told us we need to move before the toll station. We stood right before the toll station with a sign pointing to people. I believe it's best to just stay on the little brick island between road's lines. Trying to pick someone from roads corner might be trickier cause many people pointing to the right on toll station are going the direction of Spain and we wanted to go Italy. After 20 minutes a nice 20years old solo lady invited us to her car (it was a technogirl speaking no English but loving techno)

In a normal country for hitchiking it would be a perfect spot. But in Spain we waited 3 hours till some Italian guys took us. My mate was even talking Spanish and asking people around the gas station but everyone seemed to be afraid to take hitchikers. Been asking around gas station, staying with a sign on a bus stop near gas station and also trying to get someone on the entrance to highway and not much luck. Police came and said that we got to leave the highway's entrance. A much more traffic to Barcelona though so maybe it would be better and we were trying to go to France

it serves both directions so it can be tricky, besides fuel is more expensive than in spain. and yet i was picked up by a german whose mother, in another car, needed fuel. there was a lot of people, the spanish were telling me they were unfortunately coming from spain but would take me

I'd say it's a pretty good spot if it wasn't Spain. Plenty of traffic, plenty of people going my direction. But thr Spaniards don't take hitchhikers so no success here. Better go to the station and ask directly, it seems like they won't decide to take you by just standing. Even with a sign "Córdoba)

A lot of cars and trucks passing by slowly. People that only stopped for gas dont come here though. Found a lift with a truck driver going to Pamplona (I was heading for spain so this was great)

The gas station is quite busy and almost everyone goes to madrid. You can find toilets, showers (broken atm) and a small shop with chargers. The prices are the usual. There is a small restaurant but not many people come to eat. Most stop for a quick pause as there is a small park nearby. Its as good as it gets for spain, many people are freaked out by hitchhiking but we managed to catch a ride to madrid within 30min.

To go towards Madrid/Andalusia: You reach this spot by the public „metrobus“ 430A from Valencia. Its not the red city busses but the yellow metrobus. It starts from the main bus station but dont try to catch it there because noone knows where it departs. We caught it one spot down from there and it came by the time stated on google maps. Its like 3€. The spot itself is not great but okay. There are people going to Valencia or other local towns (many), some to Madrid and quite a few to Andalusia/Sevilla/Portugal. Many cars are full. We arrived at 20:00 and tried for 2 hours and got close to a lift to madrid multiple times. We went to sleep in a field nearby which was perfect. Next day it took us another 2 hours to go to another service station 1 1/2 hours towards spain. I don't know if we just got unlucky but I think its just spain. Many people are shocked when you ask them for a lift.

The spot is alright, with a lot of space for cars to stop. Iwas a bit afraid for my first hitchhiking experience in Spain as I read that it would be significantly more difficult than in France. I was on my way to a village close to Girona which is a bit of an awkward way from Puigcerda so I wrote Ripoll and Vic on my cardboard. Eventually someone stopped and said he would take me to the place where the road to Ripoll starts. After talking a bit it turned out he would be going all the way to Girona in the afternoon after having lunch with his wife. I had to kill a few hours but was very lucky with my direct ride.

Glad to see other comments replicate my experience. The truck driver who dropped us off here said there were going to be a lot of spanish trucks that could take us directly to Spain. We had our hopes up in the beginning, but we slowly lost hope... Basically, this is a good spot to go to Geneve. After some hours, we were just trying to go past Lyon into the A6 or A7 highway. Took a long time, but in the end we found a truck driver from Spain who, after a little bit of conversation, became willing to take both of us (a couple) all the way across the border. Lucky! I don't know what I would have done otherwise.

the staff is friendly and helpful. the spot was empty during the night, as pretty much all in spain. and mind you it was during the apagón. it works for several directions, namely murcia, valencia, one trucker even said he was going to badajoz. eventually a romanian van driver took me all the way to porta de barcelona, even a bit out of his way. thanks, mihail

Really good spot to reach Spain, Bayonne
