There is a lot of traffic, but the traffic light is really fast. The people are not very nice and don’t easily give rides to strangers. However, some people are kind and might offer you a lift."

Pretty decent place if you can get dropped of here, not so much if you have to walk to it.

Because there is only a onramp no oframp I tried hitching to the next one. Road seemed a bit dodgy to walk. Gave up after 16 minutes and took the long hike to the onramp with the three roundabouts. Try to get dropped of there in the first place, because it's not an easy route.

I didn't enjoy hitching there, but you can't argue the results. I stood after the pedestrian crossing to stand out from the crowd, but I gues you could go before and ask the drivers waiting on the red light. I had sign "A10".

You can take a bus and like 20 minutes walking and you are there. Best way to go directly to Roun or Caen

I waited about 5 minutes at the exit of the station, with a sign saying "A10", and got a lift to Chatellereault (near Poitiers). A few cars even stopped before that but were not able to help me. Many people heading to the south, and a lot of truckers are resting. Go ahead and ask them, many of them go to Spain ! 👍

I waited there about 2 hours on a wednesday afternoon, but I think that it is pretty decent for Paris. Initially I had a sign with A10 / Bordeaux / Aire de Limours written on it, but then I switched to keep only A10 and much more cars stopped, until I was taken to the Limours gas station. Nice shady little wating spot, with space for cars to stop. Good luck 😉

good spot for paris, great spot for north east in the summer. many cars were full, loads of benelux and german license plates from homecoming holiday go-ers, if you are looking for a ride to paris, better to hunt down plates with 75 than to stand at the entrance to the petrol station. if talking to french drivers ask for direction paris as opposed to paris itself, they might be more likely to give a ride. we saw other hitchers here but they ignored us.

If you want to get on the A13 towards Normandie this is the only good spot. Stand on the sidewalk and hold a sign saying A13. Cars can stop on the right lane or drive off the road next to the parking garage.

I was dropped here by a friendly guy who thought it would be nice. I was stupid to rely this time : There is no place for cars to stop, it is dangerous, few cars are really going to the next toll station or to south, and... and gave up after 2h and took a bus back to Paris...

First petrol station on the A10, to Spain. Ask for a close distance first.

Me and a friend with HUGE packs because we are bringing our instruments were worried about getting a ride due to the size. I speak very very little french so I was also worried. We took the RER to poissy, slept on near the cathedral outside, the police were very nice and didnt bother us, we woke up the next day grabbed some old bread for free and took the bus to auberge. At the bus stop you take your first right (if your walking in the direction you were coming from. Set up at the rest staition, my friend held a sign and I walked up to people and asked if they were going west on 13, the second person I asked said sure thing. He was heading towards Rouen but he dropped us off at a nice rest area where he even found a ride for us because our french was poor. Really good spot to hitch from.

Around 30 minutes wait on a Wednesday evening (4:30 pm).

The traffic jam of the peak hour probably made me wait longer than usual as it puts people in a bad mood.
On the other hand it allowed me to talk to drivers while they were waiting for the traffic lights to turn green.
And that's how I got a ride to Vierzon.


I had a big back pack with me and 2 card boards. One with a "next gas station symbol", and the other with Orléans.

Good spot, very easy accessible by metro. Direct ride to Bordeaux! Waited an hour though and it was the first car that made a stop.
