Thought it would be hard to get on the right highway past Frankfurt but it was quite easy. Just look out the for the right License plates.

Got a ride fast in the direction of Frankfurt

We wanted to walk to the train station and start hitching there, but then we asked a man who just parked here and was willing to take us down south. He was headed further east from the spot he dropped us off

Took us a long time. A lot of traffic but most had their car full of stuff or people so they couldn't take us to the border or beyond.

We were very lucky that a couple could take us all the way to Frankfurt, there we needed to go south and they were going east

I think location is generally good, especially going south (I was going East). Lots of traffic on a Wednesday at 4:00 pm. I was standing in the bus lane near traffic. The bus comes infrequently when I was there so it should be fine, just be careful since traffic is going fast. Giving it 3 stars because my experience went a bit rough. First hour had a sign that said “Ost” (East) and looked like a mess, it didn’t work. Changed my sign to “A3 Wurzberg” and cleaned up a bit, had 3 cars stopped and finally had one take me to a service station (better loco for going east).

I would say this loco is okay. Not too much traffic. Maybe because it was a Sunday. Funny enough, I got a ride to Frankfurt because someone was going to church. Stood on the sidewalk positioned towards the exit of Frankfurt.

Almost 3 hours of waiting with sign “süd a3, a5” no one stopped, switched for a sign darmstadt and still almost half an hour until a nice pair took me just for fun there cause they felt sorry, so no i dont recommend this spot

We Were hitchhiking to the North on a Sunday morning. Incredibly we found someone after 50 min to Rotterdam all the way to our destination in the Netherlands.

It worked very good.
We talked to some people and someone took us to Hamburg.
Even over us a place to sleep if we wanted which we gladly accepted.
It was a very nice experience!

A good spot to start from the city, but many people go just to the Uni-clinic, which is directly on the next street

I stood there for almost an hour with a sign saying Köln and Essen on Monday at 11. many cars passed by but the vibe was not great. Frankfurt is a banker city and the people gave me weird looks. However one van stopped after 20 minutes, they were going to Hannover though. After a while a guy driving to Bochum (city right next to Essen) took me along and we had a great ride :)

It was getting dark so I felt like my chances were getting pretty low. Quite some people ignored me when I came up to them, the vibe of the place doesn’t really help being there with a cardboard. I wanted to go to cologne but went to Frankfurt airport instead and stayed in the city for the night.

Really few people on a Sunday afternoon. I was also dropped here although the person said he would go to Frankfurt. I managed to ask someone to take me to the next station, he would have taken me to Frankfurt city but I stilled hoped to get further.

Pretty good to go south out of Frankfurt. There’s a lot of space for cars to stop right before the entrance to the gasstation. Stood there with a sign „Darmstadt“ and eventually someone took me there. Asking around the gasstation didn’t work for me here as most people stayed in Frankfurt

A lot of people going to Frankfurt, also you can cross the highway via a bridge and go north
