I was waiting for a while to go south, but I think it would be easier to head north. Lots of trucks, McDonald's, showers and a hotel - big truck stop. Had a sign for Bordeaux but got a ride to Spain. I stood at the roundabout and it didn't work (little space to stop), but when I went to the end of the truck stop parking lot I got my ride in 15 min.

There is a small way to get there. But the third person asked instantly took me( young male) to swiss.

Little road with a stop at the exit of the station
Not a lot of passage
The station is accessible with the bus bu11 then walk past the roundabout then past the houses and follow the mud path you'll arrive behind the station

At 2 am two very tired guys handed us the key to their vehicle (after asking if I have a license). Got a ride to Bordeaux.
Asked everyone in all the language we know
Reaching the place at night was not easy at all, we walked through the industrial zone with the truck then had to reach the truck rest area through a thin path seemingly drawn by a previous hitchhiker, climbed to the bridge and walked on the side of the highway entrance.

I started to ask around in English and after around 10min the workers at the gas station made it their personal business to find me a ride and asked the drivers in Spanish, which worked great. They found me a ride to Irun after 15min.

Cars can stop at the entrance of the gas station but a lot of local trafic. We had a sign "Bordeaux", a girl took us to Biarritz but it was not very convenient because exchanger there is not a good spot for hitchhiking

Great spot to go north. We asked directly and the first people we talked to (french couple in a camping-car) took us and brought us after the border to Saint Jean de Luz. We were two with a dog.

The other spot isn’t so good now because the majority of people in the vicinity are Portuguese cars that come to the gas station for cheaper fuel. Asked around and got incredibly lucky, a ride all the way to Irun with a French/Portuguese man. Don’t know what the alternative would be, maybe at the border crossing works better

Good spot for going to France!! We had a dog and Two big backpacks. And a older couple took us to Bordeaux and they were ready to take us all the way to Paris! Ask people and write a sign.!

Best spot on my trip yet. Getting there was a bit rough but managable having to go through the Woods and over highway crossing car bridge from the industrial zone. Consider hitching a ride there instead of the bus. But once there i talked to 2 different people. And the second were some portuguese Guys that took me all the way to toulouse at 19:30! It doesnt really get better than that.
