Perfect spot for going to Tampere, everyone going from Pori to Tampere go past here, and there's a great bus stop and great visibility to see you. Cars also slow down a lot if they are going to Tampere right here. Was picked up by a lovely couple, retired firefighter and a first aid medic :)―Jarnohitchikes

Really long wait this time, think I got unlucky. But the luck reversed itself because got a ride all the way to Helsinki with some doctor guy! He was speeding the whole way.―Jarnohitchikes

Spot keeps being good and reliable. I turned down a ride to Lempäälä, then turned down a ride to some other place and then I got a ride all the way to Helsinki. I would have accepted a ride to Hämeenlinna.―Jarnohitchikes

Waited for 1,5hours with a sign to Turku before giving up and taking an overpriced bus. Maybe most of them were going to helsinki but there was a lot of cars and it was a good place to stop.My experience about hitchhiking in finland is that eather you get lucky and find a ride in less than 15 minutes or you stand there for hours..

Two people. Traffic lights and the bus stop make it pretty reasonable for cars. Not bad, sun was shining behind the cars so they had less problems seeing us. Maybe too much traffic (drivers thinking someone else will take us) and a lot of drivers propably on their way to home from work either in Helsinki or Vantaa. So would propably find a place further up the highway maybe in Vantaa if using it again.―hiidenhuora

Bus stop is okay to dorection of Tampere, the cars lower the speed as there is a speed camera over the hill just before the bus stop. Got a direct car to Tampere from here.―Anonymous

Very good spot going south from Tampere. Didn't feel difficult to get a ride. Sign: Hämeenlinna / Helsinki―Jarnohitchikes

Tried other spots of Tampere trying to go to Helsinki but no luck after like 2 hours. Idk if it was luck but I just feel like this was the best spot since we got it almost instantly. Tampere road infrastructure is hellish so I think this might be one of the more coherent places to get south.―pate88

Most drivers go either long way south or north so potentially a good place. Me and my friend ate lunch on the bench of the ABC outside and asked drivers for a ride(granted we are finnish so that probably helped tremendously with trust and shit) eventually two Toni's took us to Tampere. 5/5 loved the place―pate88

Got stranded here in 2025, before I knew what hitchwiki was :D Asked around on the gas station and eventually gave up and just held a thumb at the exit. I got a ride to Tampere eventually.―Jarnohitchikes

Great spot for the Tampere direction. A lot of cars going from nearby gas station, a lot of space to stop and slow cars.―martih

This spot was great for me, although I think I was just lucky. A car just across from the spot waved at me and got me to Jyväskylä.―martih

Space for car to stop and some traffics, you need to go up a small hill to arrive there but really good stop for Jyvaskyla―Emilien

With a sign, you can have car which enter the highway and the car on the highway―Emilien
