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

There were many cars in the south direction (---->Bazel, München)


Many cars did not stop for us, althought there was enough traffic.

It really depends on where you wanna go. If you wanna go to Frankfurt, this is a great spot and you will find a ride in no time.
If you want to go west on the 45 you just landed yourself in an impossible position. It's an unnatural stop when going that way, I only landed myself there because I wanted to get out of a car asap. If you need to go west I advice you to immediately accept that that is not gonna work from here. Although, I wouldn't be able to rule out that things are different in the summer. It's busy with a lot of nice people, telling you they would have taken you had they gone that way. I waited too long to accept my fate. It was snowing and getting dark, but in that sense it was a perfect spot, because I could hitchhike inside in "the glass hallway" and catch everyone there. I eventually had someone take me back to Frankfurt. After making some good conversation, that he enjoyed because his grandparents are Dutch and he could practice his Dutch, he was kind enough to go out of his way to "turn me around" in Frankfurt, such that I was on the right side of the highway again. From there on I quickly got back to Amsterdam. It eventually turned out that I had actully been lucky and made all the right calls, because I missed an appointment because of the delay, and that turned out to really work in my favor ;).

I think you would also be fine going east, but I can't remember. It's too long ago and that wasn't where I needed to go.

Good if wanting to go to Marburg. It's not a practicle place for cars to pull over, but many just stop directly on the road since there is not too much traffic. waiting time: 15 - 30 min.

A good place if you want to get to A5. It's perfect to pull over and easy to reach by bus.

bad place for getting to A5 over the Ring; at least mid-week before noon and it's not very good to stop 'cause it's the left lane in front of the traffic light

Quite a steep ascent from the station though... (albeit the beautiful view over the dill valley)
