Trying to go to Brussels with another sign with Rotterdam and got took after 1h30. Still a really good spot just not the good people

It’s a very good place, we’re going to Hertogenbosch, a man take us really fast, and we spot in front of trafffic lights who’s going to motorway

Quickly found a ride towards Antwerp

Almost all local traffic to Breda or Den Bosch/Eindhoven

we stood there by 8:15 and got picked up with very little waiting time! though this may be dumb luck

Lots of folks. Got offered a ride pretty quickly to Hasselt, which was halfway to the French Ardennes we were heading to. Still rejected it, figured we gotta stay on the Brussels-Luxembourg corridor to get to the Ardennes. As always when here, we considered accepting a ride to Eindhoven Airport to luck into a ride to Belgium there. One day we’ll try it!

First person we asked was very kind and took us all the way to Brügge.

Nobody stops

Easy to Arnhem and Apeldoorn, not so good for Utrecht

Great spot, going to Amsterdam took us on gas station behind Leiden

Great spot in front of a station, next to petrol prices. Way more people see you and take you to Hauge

Great place to be but unfriendly staff made us go away

Great people, very nice vibe here! But almost exclusively local trafic to Breda and Tilburg, so we had to wait quite a bit to find a ride to Belgium.

Got picked up after 1 car, brought me until Essen. Plenty of space for cars to stop here

Many cars there but almost noone goes to Amsterdam on a friday evening. We got picked up by two people who drove there just for us :)

there's a hotel parking lot and cars are really slow coming down this road, I decided to hitch from here after seeing there's not lots of space on the on ramp

YESSS I loved this! bus stop cars are tbh bit fast maybe but there's plenty space and I got a lift to Enschede withing minutes and it was such a sweet one as well

not lots of cars but it'll work, got a lift to zwolle

I sometimes just run around with cardboard in hand and people offer me lifts, zero work put in whatsoever; seemed fairly busy I foolishly accepted a short lift

Super nice spot, many people stopped but they were going to nantes and around and not orleans, what i was trying. A worker from the station gave me free food and a piece of cardboard to signal better, and a girl from the netherlands came to talk with me for a while, she was lovely, sadly she wasn't going my way.

Wanted to go the netherlands, someone took us to Moers. Decent spot, cars can see you, but people rarely stop

People were nice but no one really wanted to take us. At some point we were lucky to find someone who was on his way to the airport. He was so nice to drive a bit further to „Aire de Vémars Est“ from where you find maaanyyy cars that go to belgium and the netherlands :)

After only a few minutes someone took me all the way to Holten. I needed a ride to the very East of the Netherlands, so this was veryyy nice

There was lots of traffic and commuters that were driving to the Netherlands. Got dropped off right at the train station.

The people who took us told us the station is never very busy. Very few cars! Don't go here in the evening!! Not a lot going to the Netherlands, the 2 who did were full. A man heading to Emden was kind enough to bring us to the train station where we got picked up by family (this was the last day of our hitchhiking trip)

I took the train to weiskirchen and walked to this stop due to its great ratings. And it lived up to it. I was there on a Tuesday around midday and only asked maybe 6 people until I found a person with an Austrian plate (I tried to go to Vienna) and the person was heading to Nürnberg and dropped me off at a gas station before entering the city. There was quite a few people from the Netherlands who also drove to Austria but didn’t have any space left. One person also offered to take me to Würzburg. If I’m in the area I will definitely come back to this spot to cover greater distances.

Great spot towards the Netherlands. If you’re heading to Amsterdam, it’s best to get close to Utrecht – from there, you’ll get to Amsterdam easily.

Great spot if you’re heading towards Hamburg. For Amsterdam, you might have to wait longer. But once you pass Hannover, there are more cars heading towards the Netherlands.

Really good to go to the Netherlands! I was going to Germany and found a french guy who was going there to visit friends. But many people in the holidays going north. Not so many truck drivers but some.

There was some really nice shadow from the gas station pricing sign when I stold there, and the gas station was perfect for people to pull in tgo pick me up. However, I waited for what felt like an eternity, while most drivers didn't even aknowledge my existence. Not sure whether it's the spot or the Netherlands in general, but a tiring experience it was. Eventually a really cool woman picked me up in her 1987 Toyota and took me to Eindhoven

Nice spot to get out of Duisburg towards the Netherlands, but I must say it was probably more about luck than a good spot. There's no shadow to stand in during summer btw, I got quite a sizzle on my neck after that half hour. The driver was really nice though, drove me all the way past Venlo, when he didn't even plan to cross into the Netherlands at all, and even bought me a coke and gave me some cardboard for a new sign

You have to wait a little but it's fully doable. I rejected fiew rides to Hamburg itself and went with driver who was going towards Bremen however during ride I found out that my driver was actually going towards the Netherlands so I decided to go there with him. At the spot itself there is nice forest for camping at night, you can access it by first crossing first fence using an open entrence for service road located in between two fences, then go litte bit north till you se place in which fence has been cutted. Then you are here, actually I would say that this spot is much better for sleeping than previous little bit up north of here and yes, thumbing at the exit works, you just need to be patient so if you are shy like me just stand there and somebody will stop

Good spot! I was asking around for an hour and in the end met a couple from the Netherlands while filling up my water. The took me all the way where I needed to go. I spent 6 hours travelling with them. Really perfect. I asked at the parking lot at the end, not at the gas station. 1 male

Lots of traffic, refused a few rides to Warsaw to try and go further towards Germany without getting stuck. Found a guy going the Netherlands that unfortunately couldn't take us all the way but took us to another big MOP near Konin. Couple F/M stood by the exit with sign and thumbs.

Really complicated to get out of Rouen for me, some people dont take the highway and leave you in random place Waited three hours, almost lost hope but someone took me fit the north Nb; my father was blocked two times while going to the Netherlands, in the exact same place for a whole day. Stay away if you can

Was hitchhiking at the end of the gasstation for about ten minutes until a mother and her daughter picked me up. I was heading to the Netherlands and they happened to be going all the way to Dijon. I got lucky, so I don’t actually know if it is a good spot for heading north.

Stood there for about 20 minutes. Many people heading to the Netherlands but often with packed cars. Saw someone I knew at the petrol station who gave me a ride to Rotterdam.

There passes enough cars. Asked some people but not many wanted to take us or didn’t go far, but a really friendly couple of the Netherlands took us to Rothenburg Germany and took us the next day again to Linz Austria, they even bought us food and gave 20 euros
