Very nice spot. Got there on a sunday morning at 7:30, it looked extremely empty, but after 30mins at the on-ramp with a "HANNOVER WEST" sign a nice man stopped trying to take me to Helmstedt, but right as I was putting my stuff into his backseat, another car stopped after seeing my sign, saying they'll take me to Duisburg. Obviously I took that offer. Very nice people, even the ones that didn't take me. Very nice experience for my very first time hitchhiking―B5Scheuert

Waited ~1 hour here―Anonymous

Took a bit of time, many people sloped and offer a ride to Magdeburg, but I refused as I needed to get on A9 highway. Eventually, I got a ride with a truck to crossroad of A9 and A4, as I was going to Weimar. Truck was going to Lyon actually.―estasbien

Arrived at midnight and asked drivers pulling in for rides toward Germany. Lots of false starts and difficulty given the hour, but a good ride to Berlin (Michendorf) within about two hours in the early morning/late night I consider reasonable. There was quite a bit of traffic given the time, though much of it couples with packed cars. Hitching in the day I don’t think you’d be waiting very long.―Movethathoof

There is little traffic, (we were here on monday at 4pm), but it is worth the wait. People are going to Leipzig, Hanover or somewhere further west.―drzdnk

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.

Two guys hitchhiking in the afternoon. We were picked up by a local heading to Michendorf. We were visible and there’s room for the drivers to stop, but we hiked to this spot from Potsdam and travelling along the road the amount of cars passing by would vary.―Ledan

Quite a lot of full cars with holiday-goers, but enough traffic atleast! Got a lift that went close to Berlin after around half an hour. A few people were also going North.―Mazi

Big station, many cars standing on the parking lot, few cars going. People going either to Berlin or North, truck drivers either somewhere local or in pairs (so no place for another person). After two hours of standing with a sign at the exit I went back to talk to people in front of the restaurant. One person who earlier said is not going my direction approached me saying they used to hitchhike and it's good if I move to am Fichtenplan, so I went with them (they were going to the airport to pick someone up)―Martynan

Got a ride to Berlin fast (with a person going there to bring back a piece of big furniture). Lady at the shop spoke no English but was very helpful with getting the paper for the hitch sign (after we managed to communicate somehow)and even run after me to give me a better one after a minute. Easy spot to get to by walking half an hour from the train station, a bit uphill though―Martynan

On Saturday afternoon it was basically empty, got a lucky ride with a sign "Magdeburg"―Martynan

Not too many people but spot seems ok, got a ride to Berlin with a sweet Kazach guy, had a lot of fun trying to get to know what Kazachstan is like trying to communicate in a mix of poor polish english and russian―Martynan

It's a great spot to go West. On a quiet Saturday morning, I got a ride all the way to NL within half an hour waiting, asking drivers and no sign.The Michrndorf rest area is easily and quickly accessible by the multiple bus lines from Potsdam Hbf and a short walk.
This was the starting point of my first long-distance solo hitchhiking journey: from Berlin to Belgium. It couldn't have started off better than with this 589km, 6h15 ride :-)

Best spot to leave Berlin south or west.Ask around for rides west or(!) south and respekt common etiquette if there are other hitchhikers. I hitchhiked 15 times from here (mostly alone) and it always worked.
Waiting time 5-90 min.
60% of the time you end up 50km further at a big rest stop in Michendorf where A3 and A9 splits. While there might be another 45 min waiting time awaiting you its still worth it to go there. After Michendorf it will get better!

An excellent spot for going South and West. Get her by taking the regional train into direction Dessau, and get off at Michendorf for a walk of half an hour.―Anonymous

Very difficult to get to Berlin city from here. Most cars were going to Poland here so possibly a good place for this destination.―Anonymous
