On a Tuesday in September maybe 1 in 30 vehicles was heading west. Get to St. Pölten and try a different spot if you're heading for Linz/Salzburg/Germany.

Quiet spot, mostly locals. Like other commenters suggest, getting a ride to St. Pölten is best.

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.

Tried to get a ride to Nuremberg at night without any luck. However, I got really lucky in the morning and found a truck driver who took me about 60 km from Vienna.

A good spot for heading to western Austria; benches, toilets, and water are available. There were two of us, and we arrived around 4 p.m. Arriving a bit earlier would probably be better for finding a ride. (You don't need a sign.)

Sign PL to get to the rest area. Sign Rastplatz didn't help.

Very good spot, go on the ramp and use a cove by the road.

It looks great, I was just probably unlucky. Waited 1h20 and got a ride only to St Polten.

Yet another gas station at the snail-trail through random Austrian villages. there is a bus stop a bit further down the road which might be better
