Many people to ask, a vibrant Raststelle. Seems good to trevel to the north (Kassel and in the direction of Hannover)

Mostly LKW, but managed to find a ride to Kassel for a Swedish guy going to Italy and then I found a Polish bus going towards Wroclaw.

Here I met a Swedish guy who was hitchhiking for the first time to Italy! Managed to hitch a ride together with guys from Kosovo going to Hannover.

Me and my friend got a ride around the sunset straight to Hannover with a guy who was driving to Düsseldorf. So we drove the whole night until the sunrise, which was perfect. :)

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

On a holiday (Karfreitag), so not to much traffic. Eventualy got a ride to Hannover in a touring bus.

this service station seems to be highly frequented by other hitchhikers. there is a huge sation on the side which leeds to the west and you will be able to find a lift in direction dortmund within a few minutes to the west, this is almost excellent). a bit more difficult is to find someone who changes to motorway to the a7 to the north. and even more difficult to find someone heading to the south from here. there is a small service area on the other side on the motorway which enables you to find a lift in direction east (berlin) too

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 2,10â‚¬.

Direction North.
200-250 Cars per Hour pass by. Only ~15% of them will enter the highway. Go there by bus (line 692 -> Mellendorf. Stop: Autobahn). That busstop is where the cars can stop for you. Busticket: 2,70â‚¬ from Hanover center. That place to start is in nature, so it's nice :) If noone picks you up, you will find a place to sleep at a construction site (there are many) in the village Weiherfeld.

Walk out of the airport in direction highway along the "Flughafenstrasse", when the two roads merge together there's a huge bus stop, perfect for hitching into Hannover or everywhere around

Very bad place. Mainly trucks but not enough.

I experienced almost the same. Its almost impossible to get a ride to the A7 southwards. I waited for 2 hours, trying to get a ride with a sign and talked to people directly, nothing. I then decided to change my route and go west on A2 and got a life within 5-10min.

had no difficulties to get to the A7 to the north, waited only 15 minutes, but it's true that the majority goes to the west (A2).

If you want to go to the north, just write Bremen/ Hamburg on your sign and let yourself dropped of at Rasthof Allertal at the A7 if you want to go to Hamburg and your driver goes to Bremen or vice versa. Big Station for Truck Drivers to rest.

Second car I asked went to Amsterdam and wanted to take me. First car I asked also went in that direction but had no place left. Note that this was on the end of a Dutch holliday though
