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?

It was raining and only every few minutes a car. So no success.

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

Services were closed when I was there (and look like it could be permanent). Petrol station is open but most of the traffic was just going in to Hamburg. If you’re going for Denmark I had much better luck at Rastplatz Holmmoor on the other side of Hamburg

Better for asking with a sign, thumbing is kinda hard

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.

Lots of local traffic when I was there, but two guys who went to Bremen, took me to the next gas station on the highway.

Got a ride with a truck all the way to the Netherlands, while trying to hitch with a sign, close to the entry to the highway. Male/summer

Got a ride to my destination Buddikate. A sweet young couple brought me there after I asked the man for a ride towards Lübeck.

Got a ride to Stillhorn really quick after having a long distance ride from Trento with my new danish friends. Its good for going northwards on the A1/A7.

After waiting 4,5h in Peschiera, I was brought here. This service area is quite big and very good to go northwards. I asked truck drivers and others at the gas station, but went to the service shop after 5min. I met two Danes who were traveling from Milano to Kolding, so I got a long distance ride for over 1000km in 14h to Hamburg.

Asked people if they go south and Olaf took me to Würzburg. 4/5 because it's a little less traffic
