just go along the road and ask around where most of the people are.i decided to do something stupid and went to Vienna by foot, which took me 14 hours, but at this place you get a ride just by existing. cross the border.

Good spot to go to ViennaGot picked up by the third car, got taken close to Vienna.
It's in a shade, cars have nice spot to stop and people are going to the direction of Vienna. Feels comfortable.

Hitchwiki recommeds this spot for catching a ride towards the A5 Autobahn in order to get further north to Czechia. Do not make the same mistake as us (me and my friend), and try to get a ride from here on SUNDAY!!! Kaufhaus is closed on sunday, very little traffic, the locals who drive here do not like hitchhikes and will treat you like UFO (mostly ingoring you tho), however, miraculously we managed to stop two young fellas in a mercedes after like an hour of suffering and zero hope.―slavomirScholz

From citycenter go to the Florisdorf district. There take tram to the end of street Brünner Strasse. Don't try to hitchhike in the city - everywhere are symbols to disable stop. Go on the end of the city and find the spot - you can stay everywhere―Anonymous

It can be excellent place but I advise to use sign like A2-SOUTH, A2-SUD. We have done it with my girlfriend and 2 young Italian women stopped :) Some Czech drivers going to south during summer can stop, but they often have only 1 seat free. Try to get over Wien at any rate, hitchhiking there can be a problem!―Anonymous

My advise - walk 100 metres more out of the city (see the map), and get to a much better spot at a small bus stop.―Anonymous

Front of the Merkur is it very good place. The cars are slow because there have a light, and also can stop for you. But if you are going to Czech maybe try to go first to Mistelbach, this is the last city in Austria. And in 2012.aug here was the highway end.―Davidkuski

Waves of traffic, due to traffic light further back, so is a bit slower than most spots. But you can hitch the lane turning to the shop which works well, more than enough room for cars. Traffic lights also give you a chance to speak to some drivers.―Unrooted

Over one year later, I was here again, and have to take back what I said before. The place where I hitchhiked last year is not a good spot. This time I hitchhiked right next Mercur and ofter 20 mins got a lift to the highway. Unless it is Friday and lots of Poles and Czechs are going home the chance someone will take you to the Czech Republic is low, so hitchhike without a sign, and get as far as you can ;)―ESko

I was actually standing right next to the Merkur shop on Bruenner Strasse - arrived there at 4 pm and after 1 hour I managed to catch a car directly to Poland, and that was in November 2011 :) so that means it's a good place to hitch !―Krzych machinehead

I walked a bit further than recommended. Wiki says its a good place, but I couldnt really see it, but if you walk further there's a place to pull over. I was there about 35 min, and then a woman took me to Mistelbach. ps: if you wanna buy food there's Mercur and then further on your way Hoffer. Choose Hoffer, its much cheaper.―ESko

If this is the bus stop... It was difficult for us! We waited like 8 hours, only one car stopped.―Anonymous

I wouldn't advise choosing this spot for hitching south. A new motorway has been built (S2), practically ALL traffic going through the city concentrates on that motorway.―Anonymous

Me and my friend (two guys) got here around 21.00, we got nobody that evening, but we didnt mind, because, as we were told, it was a great spot to hitchhike. We slept nearby, and in the morning tried to get a lift towards Linz. It was hard, since most of cars goes to the next town - Stockerau, and if someone goes further they head towards CZ. Anyway, we got a ride to St. Polten after 2 hours of asking. Interestingly, a girl (going to CZ) got there right when we got our ride, and a guy who was willing to take us towards CZ gave her a lift, so she was waiting there a mere minute.―ESko

Hard to find, and it's almost senseless to hitchhike there, if you would like to go further than the next small towns. I waited 4 hours, but only got a lift to the next town, where it's even harder to hitchhike.―Aaaarrrggghhh...
