In summer crowded place with a lot of ppl heading west of Spain or Portugal (mainly Porto). Out of the season maybe not that good place. After few minutes I found a couple who give me a lift to Guimaraes.―Filip

Last roundabout before the highway, good for both ways North (Braga, Valença, Spain) or South (Porto, Coimbra, Lisbon)―Anonymous

We didnt have good luck and actually would disadvise that place as people running the station threatened to call the cops,and even though it is busy,not many trucks and mainy people going to Braga.―Jorgegalicia

Not the best place because you can't talk to people and not a lot of space to park but we got a ride within 30min - several people pointed us in another direction - maybe it's better on the Avenida de Sao Bento?―Anonymous

Waited there for about 1,5 to 2 hrs to get to Porto with a lot of traffic passing by and finally got picked up by a Port family. the spot itself is not bad, cars drive slowly and have place to stop, but you cannot talk to people which in Portugal definitely is a disadvantage. Maybe the nearby gasstation would have been better.―Anonymous

Very good spot to hitchhike north (to Braga, to Galizia [Vigo, Santiago]...). Take the train to São Frutuoso and walk 800m to the gas station in the A3. You'll have to look for the good place to climb over the fence. Make sure no one sees you!―Anonymous

Its is a very popular place to hitch hike if you want to go towards north in direction of Gerês, the national park.―Anonymous

This is a gas station on the way to Porto and Barcelos. You can get there easily if you walk through the hidden stairs on the back of the train station. Once you get down you will see a bridge to cross the highway. The first time I went there I got a ride the first time I asked a driver! :)―Anonymous

A decent spot to hitch a ride towards Vila Real/Mirandela. A short walk from the train station; when we arrived there, a friendly man from the café nearby told us how to get to the station - just before the main gate there's a path to the left between the bushes. Take it and you'll get to a brick wall after around 5m. Climb it (easy with the help of the fence) and you're there! The 3rd driver we asked too us directly to MIrandela.―Anonymous

Good place to ask truck drivers not so much the locals. Got a ride to porto after 45 minutes.―Sebby

Couldn't even get into the station. Unlike the previous comment, a person at the cafe essentially told us we can't enter and to go away. Waste of time unfortunately―That_sid_guy

Litterally asked 3 people before someone was able to take me and a mate all the way to Guimaraes. Very good spot for going further West into Spain or even Portugal.―saundy
