Seems like, in the reverse of everyone else, the spot at the entrance of A1 near Encarnação didn’t work for me after an hour. I walked to the gas station and got a ride in 5 minutes

Nice spot, lots of traffic and good visibility. I was looking to go back to France, but decided to get a ride with a couple going to Caldas da Rainha in order to reach a gas station.

Viajando pro norte de Portugal pela primeiríssima vez, Já vinha do sul e percebi que Portugal é bem melhor que Espanha. Preferi não perguntar muito no posto por ser brasileiro e saber que algumas pessoas têm preconceito e não tenho tempo e energia pra drama. Li bastante aqui os comentários de geral e decidi por este ponto. Funcionou bem. Parou um motorhome com 4 malucos indo prum festival eletrônico em Torres. Me deram frutas gostosas e fizemos muitas piadas, foi top, paizão. E claro, peguei a manha de não aceitar carona pros lugares ruins, Ou, a dizer, boleia.

Depois de dormir no carro verde abandonado no posto Prio, já que era uma noite meio fria, ao despertar já segui pra pista e o Mestre Marco de Sampa parou pra mim e me levou pra Lisboa. O ajudei também com algumas cargas já que ele trabalha com transporte. Foi massa.

We (Girl & Boy) started asking around 14:45 and got a ride in 1 1/2h ! There were two other hitchhikers with us and they also got picked up relatively quickly. One with a sign and one asking the cars directly. I recommend doing both or atleast talking to them, that way they see how you are and you can google translate. Great spot 😁🌱

If you want to head north of Lisbon this is the place to start! Ask to head towards Highway A1

If you want to head South of Lisbon you can start here. You will depend on people stopping for you only. As far as that goes it's a great place!

Drivers going here are probably headed to Lisbon city or to Caparica beaches. At this place cars are going slow. Cars will stop for you only, and having a cardboard with your destination can make it easier.

Its easy to get here by public transport but we didn´t get a ride within 1,5h and then went to another spot a few kilometers down the road and got a ride within 20min. Most people from the gas station went back to Lisboa.

good spot. traffic is mostly local/regional though, therefore we took a lift to the next service area at the A1 called "aveiras". There it was no problem to find a lift going further north.

Very very BAD spot! First, because cars that stop there are from neighborhoods from left and right of that gas station, and most important - if cars want to go on highway north of Lisbon from that place, they can't go straight north, but have to go on "round" way ABOVE hightway (like 50m from gas station), then BACK towards centre of Lisbon some 1km, then again on "round" way above highway to return on the direction for north! That means, people who are going north are NOT STOPPING at that station, unless they made a mistake. I waited 6 hours, and two Polish guys I met there waited 12H!! I had luck with some French couple who made mistake and stopped there. Also, some Portuguese people told me that I have to be careful at that gas station cuz it's in bad neighborhood, but to be honest, I didn't see anything suspicious.. Good luck!

good spot, i use it often. waiting time can go from 10 min to 2 hours..! anyway prepare to ask a lot of people, as many drivers are not going to the A1 motorway.

Good spot. No worries, also it seems that the road splits 50 metres before the gas station, there is a possibilty for cars to directly enter the highway again after it!

Another try there, 2 h to get a ride. My boyfriend and I were going direction Coimbra, another hitchhiker we met on the station - to Santiago de Compostela. The two of us managed to find a ride from a driver going to Braga, who also agreed to take the other hitchhiker. Speak, speak, speak with the drivers, be as polite as you can, they might not be very familiar with the idea of hitchhiking, but when addressed personally in the right way they are very friendly in majority of the cases.
