Good spot for going north, easy enough to stop and you don't need to signal all the time, but in intervals when the traffic light turns green

A lot of traffic (incl with French license plates) and free bathrooms, but still took a very long time.

I was waiting for a while to go south, but I think it would be easier to head north. Lots of trucks, McDonald's, showers and a hotel - big truck stop. Had a sign for Bordeaux but got a ride to Spain. I stood at the roundabout and it didn't work (little space to stop), but when I went to the end of the truck stop parking lot I got my ride in 15 min.

I literally was walking to find a spot with a little bit of space with my sign for Toulouse under the overpass towards France and as soon as I put up my sign, the second car stopped. Turns out they were an Italian couple going to Turin but they dropped me off in Toulouse.

At 2 am two very tired guys handed us the key to their vehicle (after asking if I have a license). Got a ride to Bordeaux.
Asked everyone in all the language we know
Reaching the place at night was not easy at all, we walked through the industrial zone with the truck then had to reach the truck rest area through a thin path seemingly drawn by a previous hitchhiker, climbed to the bridge and walked on the side of the highway entrance.

I started to ask around in English and after around 10min the workers at the gas station made it their personal business to find me a ride and asked the drivers in Spanish, which worked great. They found me a ride to Irun after 15min.

Not bad for short distance, there is a place for cars to stop and roundabout right after so they slow down. But for longer distances it’s not the best, most of the trafic is local. We had a sign to Bordeaux and were brought to the entrance of the highway. We were two with a dog.

Cars can stop at the entrance of the gas station but a lot of local trafic. We had a sign "Bordeaux", a girl took us to Biarritz but it was not very convenient because exchanger there is not a good spot for hitchhiking

Great spot to go north. We asked directly and the first people we talked to (french couple in a camping-car) took us and brought us after the border to Saint Jean de Luz. We were two with a dog.

The other spot isn’t so good now because the majority of people in the vicinity are Portuguese cars that come to the gas station for cheaper fuel. Asked around and got incredibly lucky, a ride all the way to Irun with a French/Portuguese man. Don’t know what the alternative would be, maybe at the border crossing works better

Best spot on my trip yet. Getting there was a bit rough but managable having to go through the Woods and over highway crossing car bridge from the industrial zone. Consider hitching a ride there instead of the bus. But once there i talked to 2 different people. And the second were some portuguese Guys that took me all the way to toulouse at 19:30! It doesnt really get better than that.

Ride to Bayonne after 1min. Probably easy to find longer ones too.

Took me a while but eventually got a ride to the border. Used a sign with "Francia". The traffic lights before this turned out to be better as they were red way more often and had a slighlty better placw to pull over.
