You have to wait a little but it's fully doable. I rejected fiew rides to Hamburg itself and went with driver who was going towards Bremen however during ride I found out that my driver was actually going towards the Netherlands so I decided to go there with him. At the spot itself there is nice forest for camping at night, you can access it by first crossing first fence using an open entrence for service road located in between two fences, then go litte bit north till you se place in which fence has been cutted. Then you are here, actually I would say that this spot is much better for sleeping than previous little bit up north of here and yes, thumbing at the exit works, you just need to be patient so if you are shy like me just stand there and somebody will stop―Autostopeks

First I tried to get behind Hamburg towards Hanover but only people who stopped were going into Hamburg itself. After some waiting I decided to accept ride to another gas station little bit closer to Hamburg―Autostopeks

About every 20 min. there would be somebody stopping. But all went towards Oldenburg or Osnabrück. We (2 guys) were trying to get to Lüneburg. No success…Cars were coming pretty often but it doesn't seem to be a good spot for hitching.
Cars to Lüneburg probably rather go down the A7. Or maybe walking in the city and trying at the Bundesstraße B75 which also crosses the river Elbe and is pretty close would've been better?

good spot for leaving hambourg but hard for long distancei tried with a sign ‘flenburg’ and ‘kiel’ and the kiel one works
perhaps it’s still really good for getting to the north and they’re is space for cars to stop
don’t forget to get a sign they’re getting fast
good luck😸

It was a quiet evening, not a lot of cars, but still got a lift quickly. There was road works, and no space to pull over, but because of the road works and low traffic a car stopped anyway so i just jumped in.―Frederik

Got off here from a lift to Hamburg thinking i might be able to catch a car going north, skipping the city, but that was the worst decision of the day. Almost all traffic going to Hamburg only, and few filled family cars going north, so ended up jumping on a car to Hamburg and was dropped off at an entrance to the A7 heading north which was a much better idea and got a lift north instantly from there. So if you are going north, dont fight it and go to Hamburg first.―Frederik

Did not seem like there was a lot of traffic, but a guy offered me a lift quickly. Stood at the exit of the autohof 100 m before the intersection, there cars can pull over in the driveways. No space to stand or for cars to pull over after intersection.―Frederik

Saw a NL(Netherlands) plate and waited by their car until they came from the restroom. Friendly older couple going towards south of Netherlands. Probably one of the most used gas stations near Hamburg and super easy to get a ride. Some people a little grumpy―Anonymous

Decent spot for getting North out of Hamburg. Probably would have been better with a sign.―Chriswally
