Easy ride out to A1 toward north and Belgium , some traffic and trafic light for cars to stop. Picked up in 20 with a cardboard that said A1. Should be easy to get north once you are on a highway stop―Anonymous

A guy and a girl without a sign. We got there quite late, at 11.30pm, and tried to get to "Aire de Limours/Briis sous forge" south of Paris from here.Did not work at all : some people were trying to help us, but only went to morth-east of Paris, and there was no one there after 1am so we went to sleep. The staff was very friendly and offered us some pain au chocolat and hot chocolate because the machine didn't work well for us, and we could set the tent at the back of the restplace without anyone bothering us at all. In the morning we waited one more hour before somebody took us to Saint-Denis' train station, as everybody else ignored us.

Cars are going very fast,for us not even ten minutes past,
before a friendly driver slowed
and added us to his load.
This spot is good for Beauvais
or anywhere north on your way,
just be sure to bring a sign
and youll leave paris in no time :)

Free toilets (thank you, France) and a busy gas station with lots of traffic to Lille and Paris. Look out for cars with the numbers 75 for Paris proper or 91/92/93/94/95 for the suburbs. Found a ride to St-Denis in less than half an hour. Generally really helpful and friendly folks there.―thebeekeeper

Traffic-lights, many cars go to the A1-North highway from here. I asked drivers if they go to the highway and if they can drop me off the petrol-station 200 meters further. Shouldn't be that hard if you speak some French.―Anonymous

Lots of hotels around here, we tried asking around on the parking lots, pretty good to go to Calais or Lille, maybe some plaace else, lots of foreign cars and such...―Anonymous

Cars are passing too fast to stop. Even though there would be enough space.―Anonymous

If you want to go on the A1 towards Lille/North.Perfect spot to stop, but cars a rather going fast (45km/h). Took us 45 minutes to leave.
Otherwise you may try the big traffic light or the onramp a few metres higher.

The traffic light is here. Many cars are going to A1. But to me it's not that easy to get a car. I ask to get to petrol station... and waited there 1hour. But I think it one ot the best way to get of from Paris to A1―Anonymous
