Arrived at the spot in the evening. We asked anyone who stopped but no one wanted to take us, either the cars where full or there where going to the wrong direction. After 1-2 hours we decided to call it a day and sleep there. Also not the best place to spend the night, it’s really loud and bright everywhere. In the morning we tried again, after another two hours we found a German guy who took us all the way to Valencia. It’s a tough spot. All in all there are a lots of cars but most of them a already fully packed. But maybe if you speak spanisch it’s easier to get a ride.At the end still ok because we are two woman and always felt safe.

Few Cars passing but mostly people on holiday with full cars. We asked a lot of people until 2 spanisch people took us with there van near Barcelona. Not the best spot, you need a lot of time and endurance.―Tina031

I was going for a hike on the next town, that's why I stood at the roundabout on the edge of town. It took very little till a car stopped , although the spot is not ideal to pull over. The driver told me it's better to just stand at the gas station, that people do pick you up.―Mandarina787

We first tried at the gas station, that was really bad, this spot is really good when there are no trucks parked there. The moment the trucks left we had a ride pretty quick―Daveswek

It's your best shot to get out of the village. Made a sign to Girona and in the morning there's a lot of traffic. Unfortunately there's 2 lanes and if you go to Barcelona maybe os faster, the Girona lane is the left one. Not the best, but is possible.―umajornadapelomundo

Took a bus from the city until here. It was a cold and rainy sunday, coming and back from station to the spot many times, until a guy pick me up and ride until near Barcelona. It was my first ride in Europe but it was better than expected.―umajornadapelomundo

Asked around towards Girona. Tried to sleep in the nearby forest - cant recommend because of wild boars. Driver was smoking cannabis, a bit of a desperate move on our side.―TillWenke
