Hitchhiker

Pretty great spot for heading East or West. So much traffic and there’s a place where people can pull off into. Got a ride to Wien/Vienna in 20 mins.

Nice spot if you’re trying to get into Munich. I had a local pickup and took me 40 min to the other side of the city. Was very nice. Idk if ppl need a good spot to get inside the city but hope this helps.

Very chill spot. Right by the entrance to the highway and right next to a shopping plaza where people can pull. The locals are very friendly, always smiling and waving at you. Hitchhiked pretty late too, 6 pm on a Thursday. Was heading to Munich.

I think location is generally good, especially going south (I was going East). Lots of traffic on a Wednesday at 4:00 pm. I was standing in the bus lane near traffic. The bus comes infrequently when I was there so it should be fine, just be careful since traffic is going fast. Giving it 3 stars because my experience went a bit rough. First hour had a sign that said “Ost” (East) and looked like a mess, it didn’t work. Changed my sign to “A3 Wurzberg” and cleaned up a bit, had 3 cars stopped and finally had one take me to a service station (better loco for going east).

Got a ride instantly at the Shell and asking the first person. Got a ride to Regensburgs. I got really lucky I think. Pretty normal place for hitchhikers, I met a few. Not much traffic though for a 6 pm on a Wednesday.

Had a local take me to the rest stop near the Mondsea. An interesting spot, lots of traffic and it’s an intersection so people can pull in easily. Would def recommend heading to the Mondsea if you have no luck at this spot. Also the sun is beaming at you in the summer so just be aware haha.

This spot is decent. Small rest area but plenty of people stopping there. Had a guy take me to Salzburg because he was returning back home. Might not be the best spot though because again it’s kind of small.

Pretty good place to start your hitchhike out of the city. I was trying to head East and local was able to take me to road stop near by. I had 2 locals stop as well.

After reading the comments idk I guess this place is just a hit or miss. Got here around 6 PM and tried asking around a bit, stood by the exit, and stood in front of the gas station for about 3 1/2 hours and had no luck. The place is beautiful though so I camped by the lake and tried again next morning. Next morning I waited another 3 hours until someone offered to take me near Wien/Vienna. There was a good amount of people in the morning but idk they didn’t really care to see or look at me lol. So yeah I think my luck was dwindling and you might have a better experience than me. I think it’s still worth to hitchhike here as one of the primary spots people stop at and head towards east potentially.

Very chill spot with gas station and McDonalds next to the highway towards Eastern Europe. Givin it 4 stars since there wasn’t a lot of people on a Sunday around 9 AM. Lots of local plates but I got very lucky with a family go to swim near Bratislava, where in which I wanted to go. Probably help’s askin around too.

Spot close to the “ Staumauer Sylvensteinspeichersee”. I think it’s as good as you can get being close to the bridge and not having to walk far. I wanted to go towards Karwendel. I tried using my thumb for the first 30 mins and it didn’t work. Used my sign sayin “Karwendel” and 30 mins more someone came and dropped me closer to the direction of it. Hitchhike as early as you can because I believe a lot of people go towards there in the morning since they wanna do whatever weekend/daily activity.

Pretty much the only spot to reach any of the spots in Karwendel. It’s a nice spot, a large area where people can pull into and people aren’t driving that fast. I probably choose the worst time to hitchhike at 4 pm. Some people there told me that usually people come in the morning and do their weekend/day activity and go back home since no one lives there. Hitchhike as early as you can otherwise you will most likely have a rough time. If you get unlucky there’s a guesthouse/restaurant right across and some woods on the other side that looks like you maybe be able to camp (idk though). I got pretty lucky since a couple was siting in the outdoor area at a restaurant and felt bad seeing that I was still stuck hitchhiking. They already paid for the toll but they were so nice that they were willing to go back in just for me. Leads me to my other point, (here’s also a toll fee too so be advised. Hope this helps.

Great place. Right before the Shell so people can pull in easily. Locals are very nice.
