Mainly local traffic but luckily it was a sunny day so we were snacking, asking, hh with sign. We got taken by a couple in campervan.

Nice spot, enough traffic but probably not for longer rides.

We got dropped here by our previous ride but I would not recommend it here, it felt dead, so we just started asking people to take us a bit further and one girl took us after few minutes.

Service area with a lot of trafic going through in both directions. Perfect when hitching to Saarbrucken, Metz, Paris and in the other dir. Mannheim, Frankfurt AM. Waiting time: 5-45 min.

the only possibility to get into the south directly, cars see you late, but can stop very good, you have to write your destination (North or south)

good point to get on the highway, many people are there, but some of them only stay in the region, so you have to ask a lot :-)

good point to go to the north on the highway, not many cars, but friendly people, good possibility to stop and just after the traffic light, so people can see you very early

lot of traffic, but not to many drivers stop. maybe better in the late afternoon. there is an interchange after several kilometers, so you have the oportunities to go east, west, or north. many drivers are heading to france!

I got lifts to Saarbrücken or at least to the Rasthof RAMSTEIN or Raststätte WALDMOHR. Looks calm, but absolutely easy-going.

NIGHTMARE!!! Towards Netherlands, as of april 2014, there are construction cones before the entrance, nobody stops here. We have seen less than 10 cars an hour.

Good spot in the north direction - there are driving trough people going from south (Stuttgart, Switzerland, ...) and east (Heilbronn, Nürnberg, Czech republic, ...) to the north (Köln, Aachen, Netherlands).

from Malaga,ES to Prague,CZ

15-16:40 12.8.2015

We got here on a way from Metz dir. Nürnberg.
Petrol station with a big parking for trucks, McDonald with parking for cars. A shop is nearby. All the complex is vast.
Not a best place, as there is a lot of locals and the station itself is a bit far away /2 roundabouts) from A6 highway.
A lot of locals and trucks going to Strasbourg (surprisingly).

In one hour a german driver Herbert agreed to take us to Nürnberg. He couldn t speak other language, so I had to practise german (good!). When he was having a shower, we talked, ate and drunk with Hamid, a Persian driver (with very few english he knew and few Turkish words I remember). It was a wonderful communication. He wanted to marry Nicol, but than we went away to Herbert's car.
