After one hour someone took me to Eibar Train Station. Decent spot but from the metro its quite a walk. With the Bus its quicker but you have to pay

Tried hitching to bilbao with the thumb didnt work at all. After 35 minutes i used my laptop as a Bilbao Sign. After 5 minutes someone picked me up. Even at a late time it worked. Decent

Quickly found someone to take me to Llodia. A nice guy that really helped me find a good follow up spot.

I arrived there with the bus A3515, I then asked around and the first car I asked took me to France!! 🇫🇷

The gas station has the advantage to be accessible by foot in one hour from Burgos. However, it's quite small. I was there on a Sunday and there were not so many people. I preferred hitching at the entrance of the highway rather than the station to maximise the number of cars that could see me.

The spot is good, you can see drivers from both roads and they are driving slow. It's still before the highway sign (so legal). Anyway we tried twice before success. In the end we removed all signes and got a driver who was willing to drive us to the next gas station on A-8.

We (Boy/Girl) we didn't ask around the Restaurant just at the gas station and the fifth person was willing to take us to Bilbao !! Really good spot even for going to france or so - yes people have full cars but you just have to wait and be patient and maybe a sign isn't smart at this station :) 🌱

Almost impossible, I wasn't able to find a car there, look best at the other entrance of the city.

Better than San Mames, the other entrance of Bilbao, but complicated though.

busline A3514 or 3515, ticket for 1,85€
easy to get ride towards donostia even though there is not that much traffic.

I'd say if you are lucky you could catch a ride very quickly in the direction of Donostia. There are a lot of cars going to France or to Germany. I was waiting for 30-40min and then took a ride directly to Donostia.

Good spot, easy to find a ride to Donaostia and France. PErfect to reach: From the bus terminal take a bus to Leteiko and get off at "Boroa". Jsut walk some 50 meters on, cross the national road over the bridge and in roundabout turn left to climb down over the broken fence.

It¨s still working. Getting out of Bilbao its very good to get to that station near Amorebieta. I waited 10 Minutes the last time.

I was not very lucky with this place.
Make sure you know the timetable of the bus ( I had to wait 1.5h for the next bus going there) and you are at the BUS TERMINAL (not the Central Station)...

Once you made it to the gas station (well accessible from bus station BOROA) you should be able to catch a ride to San Sebastian.

I planned to get to Bordeaux but only made it to San Sebastian from where I hadto take the train...

not really good. Not space to stop. Separation in two ways of motorway and cars go fast.
