Great location to hitch a ride out of Athens to the north in the direction of Lamia, Larissa, Thessaloniki. This street is directly going onto the highway, so every car that's passing you is going in the right direction. I was there during the week at 9AM in the morning. Because so many people go to work, there is a traffic jam on this on-ramp, so you can easily talk to drivers. The on-ramp also has a sidewalk, so it's completely safe to stand there. Most drivers don't go far but they can drop you on the highway at ha toll station and from there it's very easy to hitch a truck that's going all the way.

Solid spot as there are lots of tourists going back to Athens from their daytrips to Delphi. I ended up finding a ride with an Albanian living in Greece who was going to Athens to visit his mother in the hospital in Athens.

Not a lot of traffic with a small pocket to pull over. It is not on the main highway. A driver pivked me up and drove me to a gas station on the highway itself.

Didn't get a ride here, this is not the main highway and a lot of cars are going to their villages. While we were walking towards the toll road a car stopped and bringed us 60km north from there. To arrive here we took a Train and then walked 3km

Tried the other spots at the other harbour for around 2 hours first, but wasn't successful as there were no ferries arriving there, but at this spot I waited right at the spot where the cars come off of the ferry and found some nice guys who took me all the way to Athens (which was pretty lucky I guess)

Very wide road, a lot of people go to Athens, especially on Sunday. Plenty of space for cars to stop. You're visible from the far. A greek took me to Kifisia in Athens, nice ride.

It's a difficult place for cars to stop, but there is a traffic light and a little space at the side to stop quickly. A Greek took me from there to Chalkida and we even went for lunch and swimming. Lucky day 🙌🏻

Spot is good if you need to go to Athens, there's a little parking area for cars to stop. I waited at a traffic light at this intersection. A Georgian worker stopped and brought me to Athens, Syntagma. Nice ride

Not much traffic, but got a truck that drove to Thessaloniki within the hour.

Plenty of space for cars to stop, traffic light and quite some traffic. Got a quick ride up the road and got out next to the BP gas station along the highway. Big hole in the fence (can't miss it) so easy to enter station.

Waited a minute to get a ride up the road parallel the A1 near Afidnes.

Took quite some time to get here from Athens by public transport, but worth the hassle.

By European standards, terrible. Three hours for a short ride. Next time I'm in town, I'm searching far and wide for a better spot.

That's a very bad point to start hitch-hiking north. Better try the spot in Agios Stefanos, at the terminus of the bus 509, when you are already out of the city.

The only spot for going north described on the "Athens" hitchwiki page, recommended to get any short ride to first toll station and then try to get long-distance ride

(did some mistakes in the story anyway, Greece can be hard for hitchhikers, peace)
