A lot of space to stop and drivers see you from a far so good spot. Got picked up by the car with a motor home so thats nice. It was very nice swiss couple.

Just Lofoten magic got picked super fast in random spot. Got drivem almost to the guys house. Not the best spot because a bit akward to stop.

It seemed like a good spot but it took a bit longer than usual for Lofoten to stop. It seemed that most of the cars shoudl drive pretty far from here but due to miscommunication I only got couple kilometres. Probably would have waited for better ride maybe but in Lofoten it doesnt really matter. But I would say the best stop to leave Svolvear towards mainland

On my second day of waiting I was very lucky to get rides in lofoten direction but on day before I waited here for half an hour till it was to cold for me to wait longer (before that I stranded on spot right before bridge). Normally basically everyone is going to Harstad so you should just get on other side of bridge with someone going there and continue hitching beyond roundebad. But for Harstad quite a good spot

We waited closer to roundabout but there was very little place to stop so we moved a bit further and the first car stopped and took us to Svolvear. It was pretty late so not a lot of traffic.

Good spot. Just good enough to stop. We started very early in the morning so there were 0 cars but eventually we got a ride. But after being in Lofoten I would say that most people arrive by ferry not this road to Lofoten but still it should be alright to get a ride.

First I waited at the bus station before this petrol station, it was small rain, but nobody stopped, and I changed to this petrol station, it didn't work, so i decided to walk forward and saw what would happen, and luckily, a Swedish lady and Argentine man picked me up after 3 hours !!!

It seems pretty good for hitchhiking, but I somehow spent a lot of time there.

I gave up pretty quickly, as we were 3 ppl, but alone it should be possible, lots of traffic
