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 :)―Arenwithane

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―Anonymous

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

First day noone going south, only Frankfurt or Frankfurt airport. Next day we had a sign saying A5 SOUTH wich was very helpful and got picked up in 20-30 minutes, and drove close to Landau. Got dropped of at gas station near Edesheim. 20 minute walk there, and a store, so you can buy food etc.―Stokars

Got here in the evening at 6, had no luck for the rest of the day, so i slept in the woods ( lots of nice spots). In the morning it took 15 minutes to get a ride to Wurzberg. Good spot.―stepanfoj

Stood at the end with a sign, a lot of cars park near the end so you can ask around and use the sign or a thumb at the same time. After 30 minutes a turkish guy took me to a gas station after Frankfurt. Pretty good and lots of traffic.―stepanfoj

Two guys hitchhiking to München. We got a lift to Regensburg (north of München). We were picked up after a while by a nice lady heading to Austria. We stood by the on-ramp to the autobahn. It’s not a perfect place for the drivers to pick you up, as they can easily block traffic, but if there’s a will there’s a way.―Ledan

All the truck drivers were either resting or having a break of 2-3 hours, so I had my lunch here, ended up having barbecue and vodka with the Ukrainian truck drivers and then after that found an Afghani couple heading to Frankfurt, who had never heard of hitchhiking but who were happy to take me.―Anonymous

it’s a very good spot. Many card heading to the East and South. There are mostly German card but also Czech and Polish. Worth a shot. There are a few reataurants so people stay for a quite long time. Higly recommend!―Monomisia

Extremely lucky lady came up to us as we were making our sign. I can see it not being bad. Not too much traffic though―Anonymous
