Good spot, we think. It seems to be a regular spot for hitchhikers heading south/southwest/west. We stood by the western on-ramp to the autobahn. Not a lot of traffic, but we also arrived late in the day. P.S. There’s a shower: think about using it you bum!We were two guys hitchhiking late in the afternoon/evening. We were signaling to go for Leipzig/Magdeburg. The hour was late in the day, so when a driver offered us a ride to Leipzig we accepted. In hindsight, we should probably have headed straight west towards Magdeburg/Hannover, since it was difficult to plan the route after stopping on the road to, or in, Leipzig. We were heading northwest after Leipzig towards Göttingen/Kassel via the A38. We did however get onto the A38 by sheer luck, the driver’s poor sense of direction and him being a bit creepy (esoteric guy that let us lie in the back of his van). Stay safe out there folks.

In and of itself probably a good spot for hitchhikers, seeing as many people going far on the highway stop here. However, be aware that there are very few other stops along the A38; if you end up at Querfurt and don’t find a ride to wherever you’re going, you’re going to be stranded. There is nothing within walking distance. I would also avoid going there at night. We were dropped off at 11 in the evening and didn’t end up catching a ride until early morning.―Ledan

Definitely the best spot in Halle to hitchike East via A38, even though the spot is not perfect because you miss all cars comming from the North. But after the traffic light there is a bus stop where can easily stop and pic you up. I recommend to use a big sign so people can already see you when they stop at the red light.―Nbakalki

Best place I could find to go eastwards on A38. On working days you can ask people at red light. I waited with a sign for 15 min on Saturday afternoon.―Anonymous

Very good spot to hitchhike East to Leipzig or to the freeway entrance ramp of A9 (North and South). There are lots of cars and they can easily stop at the bus station and pick you up. You can walk there in 5-10 min from the main station.―Anonymous

Lovin the spot to go east or west on the a38. People are reacting and are willing to help. Try to get at least to the eichsfeld gas station.Do not take lifts to Leinefelde/worbis since its rly bad!
