the spot is a bit complicated, it’s not clear when the driver just wants to enter the gas station or to pick you up.. and the waiting time was long, maybe it’s just the case in Germany

always tricky to hitchhike on a highway, but this spot turned out to be super useful and successful, coming from Strasbourg and wanting to go south to Switzerland. cars have room to stop (only) on the left hand side, and you can get a ride to any gas station or parking/rest place further on the highway.
i got there by being droped on the previous highway exit, and walking along the fields, coming up to the highway right at the beginning of the exit lane.

Best spot for going south, but it's very hard to reach by foot. Ask the locals to drop you off at "Offenburger Ei".

Not a great spot, good enough to go to Strasbourg. Not much traffic but enough people go to the gas station.

Coming from the Frankfurt area, I had a nice little break there. I think after 30-45 minutes asking at the main building, I had a ride to Offenburg. Will definitely come here more often.

The other place mentioned (300m NE) is useless, roads were heavily changed. Try it here at the Shell gas station to get a hitch to the A5. If people go north and you want to go south, nevertheless grap the ride and get out at the next gas station on the autobahn (Renchtal). There you can go over a bridge to the opposite station and get a ride there. at least thats what we did.

Waited for about an hour or so in the early morning to catch a ride directly to Frankfurt. Lots of local traffic tho...

Do not use this place to go north. Only the ppl coming from L98 can possibly pull over on the parking area.

two parking sites. waited there for 5 minutes to get a ride to freiburg. parking space directly behind traffic lights.
should be similar for other direction

Very bad experience because the traffic was mostly local. The only lift I got was to Offenburg, a mere 10km away

this is the only good spot we found to hitchhike out of Offenburg to continue south, not a great spot but someone can take you to highway

a big parking but difficult to get there by walking.
even though it is a car park but there is no people at all, you could only hitchhike the cars that are stopped by the traffic lights.
