Siegburg Ost
On an early monday evening during summer it took me 15min of asking half a dozen peeps to find a ride north towards Düsseldorf.―Anonymous, July 2021
It was easy to find a lift ( asking the driver) there was a lot off traffic ( wensday afternoon) who bring me to the next petrol station direction aachen...

Can confirm that. If you want to go to the A4 (Aachen) direction Netherlands or Belgium it's handy to use a sign for "Aachen", most of cars go to Köln or Ruhrgebiet

Finding rides towards A4/Aachen or A61/Monchengladbach/Venlo is harder in my experience as most drivers go further on A3 or into Koln or Ruhrgebiet.

Sorry, just read the first comment to the end. It were dutch cars :-). It was in the summer holidays.

Can confirm. Went to the south once. Had to wait 1 hour, but only because many stuffed tourist cars. another time about 30 (?) minutes, but definately OK. Much traffic in both directions.

Got a lift very quickly all the way to Nurmberg (SE-wards), on a Friday afternoon, Sept 2012.

not a good place to go to northeast (dortmund, hannover) tried two times and didn't work, everybody is going to the northwest...

Also nice to go back in the direction of Netherlands or Aachen.

in general long rides. many dutch people on their way to the south make here their first break :)

Excellent rest-area and petrolstation with a bridge connecting both sides. Great for hitching onto the A3, into both directions. Siegburg main trainstation with connections to Bonn (20 minutes) is half an hour walk.
