Hitched from the Eastbound shell. Took only a short time for a lift to Köln. Our driver was kind enough to drop us at the front door of our friends house―Anonymous

This was a good spot for the Aachen direction. You can be clearly seen, and the cars are slow from the crossroad. They can also easily stop at the bus station.―Anonymous

Not the greatest spot. I needed to go in the Aachen direction, but I just needed to get on the main roads, so after a few minutes, I realized I just needed to get out of here, and Librar is fine.―Anonymous

A guy picked me up here and brought me maybe a few kilometers, which helped and definitely boosted my struggling morale.―Anonymous

I asked around and got a car to Aachen, although I got off at Köln. There is an okay amount of traffic.―Anonymous

Easy spot on the car parking near highway in direction of Germany close to the airport.There were no trains or buses to Cologne, the earliest would be in 4 hours, but I am impatient af. Saw it on Google map, came here, approached a truck with German plate numbers and got a direct ride to Cologne. Ez

Tried going in the direction of Aachen. But had no luck. Maybe it was because it was a sunday. Its probably better to take a bus and a train to the first gas station in the Aachen direction, its a short walk from the train station.―stepanfoj

Stood almost at the end, lots of trucks and cars coming through. The cars usually go to Köln and not further.―stepanfoj

May favourite starting spot to get out of the area to the Netherlands/Belgium/France. So far has worked out for me fairly quickly every single time.This review is super late, but I was there in May in the afternoon and found folks going my direction in half an hour by asking around. It only took half an hour because they wanted to finish their meal (which, totally fair.) I think the finding itself only took about 10 minutes.

There were two of us hitchhiking and we got a lift here after a 10-minute wait. Perfect spot before joining the A2 motorway―Anonymous

*The employees don't like hitchhikers here. So don't stand right in front the store as a tip.* Nevertheless, we asked about 50+ cars in 50 minutes maybe even more. Many people just barely going over the border (like Kleve or 's-Heerenberg, Netherlands) or the cars are already full with people. Right as we got told by the employees to stop asking people for a ride. We just got one 2 minutes before al the way to the center of Köln. 140km/90 minute ride. Another group of friends got at this shell at the same time as us and they got a ride all the way to Dusseldorf Airport in 3 minutes of being there. Unfortunately they didn't have room for 4 people, only 3. So that is why we had to wait for 50 additional minutes (we got to Köln earlier though). Many Hitchhikers come here do, just took us a lot of time to get a good ride. It's about luck here!!―Anonymous

Great spot! Asked one person and found a ride straight to Cologne (could've gone to Düsseldorf even).I obviously got lucky, but there seemed to be a good amount of traffic.

Good starting spot to get to Aachen and beyond to Belgium or NL, easy to reach with public transport too. I wasn't even there at a good time (Mid-November on a weekday, very foggy weather) and still found a ride to Aachen pretty quickly by asking around.―thebeekeeper
