nice gas station! At the dressing there are tables where you can eat and relax and if you stop in the summer can even sleep! We were thrown here at about 6 pm and by night we could not find the car, although we went to ask almost everyone, although in the morning (from 6 to 7) we were found to Dyorthmund. Most cars went to Amsterdam, some to Belgium. This is a good spot because everyone goes somewhere far away from Hanover's license plates. In general, the drivers of cars and trucks rest in the parking lot, many people can be asked―Anonymous

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.―Anonymous

In theory spot seems good, but I had no luck. Ended up getting picked up, by misunderstanding in wrong direction―Anonymous

At the entry to the gasstation. First tried a sign "6km" to get to Garbsen, than "Osnabruck". Eventually got a ride to Auetal without using a sign.―Chris9012

Very big service area. Great place when heading to Berlin or Dortmund.To get there from Hannover, take the U4 to Garbsen, then transfer to Bus no. 126 to the last station (Waldschänke).
This takes approx. 30 Minutes from central station.

Direction West.Very little pace to pull over, but at least during rush hours, this works pretty well.
A sign saying 'A2 - WEST' is good.

Direction East.Tramp-station is directly next to the tram-station Wiesenau of line 1. The place for the cars to stop is the old, unused and closed entrance of the military barracks. tram-ticket from hanover center costs 2,10€.

'rastanlage hannover-garbsen' is an excellent interchange between the autobahn linking germany from east to west "A2" and the north - south autobahn "A 7". i was hitchhiking from this spot to berlin in october 2009. you can change easy from one side of the autobahn to the other via a tunnel. there is plenty of drivers that can take you. this place is so good, WAI for a car that can take you the whole way through to berlin, poland, hamburg or wherever - don't just take the first one...―Anonymous

I was dropped off here from Munster as there is a campsite a very short distance away as you can see on the map. In the morning it took 2 hours to get a hitch to Berlin.―Willochrome

Not easy to get the ride to the south (direction Hildesheim) but I stopped the car coming from the town by the road beside this petrol station―Urbanekto

A nice spot with a lot of traffic. Take from Garbsen the bus 126 and stop to the last station (Am Blauen See).―Alexan

A LOT of cars to Berlin. Fewer to Hamburg or south but still enough to find a ride easily enough.Use this spot to change cars if you're coming from the west and want to go further than Hannover.
I even met two fellow hitch-hikers (one of them with a dog!) who found cars to Berlin really, really fast.
I was going to Hamburg and it was no problem at all.
