A nice Catalonian couple picked us up, and took us a short train ride away from Barcelona!

Most drivers were local, but exceptionally friendly. People kept stopping to apologize they were getting off at the next exit, one guy circled back to offer food. Asked a swiss number plate and he offered a ride as far as the swiss border. I opted to get out south of Lyon, but should have stayed with him until east side of Lyon.

So far best spot on the journey from Madrid to Barcelona. But probably got lucky with ride in 10min. I was here at morning around 9:00.
Great visible spot to stand with sign and under tree with shade.
Not so busy but some flow of car is there.
I got there with bus 214 from the city. Don't take cards, better have cash in coins.

Amazing spot. After just about 10 Minutes a couple brought me to San Cugat del Valles. Stand there with a Barcelona sign.

We (2 people) got a ride to Barcelona after waiting about 100 minutes and asking people at the parking area and gas station. Most people were heading south or towards Zaragoza. Still, it’s a good spot because you can easily talk to people and there’s a steady flow of cars.

Perfect spot. Sunday morning, lots of international and long distance cars, going in all directions. Couldn't find cardboard so just thumbed, and got a ride all the way to Barcelona, my ultimate destination.

Lots of people offered a ride, but a short one. The fourth one offered to take me to Figueres and I took it.

I tried hitchhiking at the road exiting the village for around 20 minutes but no one picked me up, so I gave up and went to the bus stop. While waiting there, a group of three british friends offered me a ride to Barcelona on their camper van, which is where I was going. Does it count as hitchhiking if I didn't even ask for it?

This petrol station is surprisingly quiet and pleasant (compared to the rest of the Jonquera industrial area). A constant flow of cars stopping by, but not super busy either. The right amount of traffic. Eventhough I had a sign saying "Figueres", where I was planning to take a train, a middle aged french couple took me all the way to Barcelona, my destination.

Convenient spot. All cars leaving the station pass by you.
The description on the website for the way to get here from the station is spot on. Took me 20 mins to walk. Had a roller bag with me, no issues, except a 40m dirt path.

Talked to people at the gas station, found someone going to Perpignan almost immediately.

Was just standing at the end of the station because I'm lazy, sign Barcelona. Still got a ride within 20 minutes. Less friendly cars than before, but lots of them (very good steady flow, it was also lunch time).

Good spot to go to the airport(why'd tou do that) but terrible to go anywhere else, waited for 2 hours standing with a sign and occasionally asking people on the gas station. Literally tge inly good thing about this spot is that i was given a bottle of water while writing my sign.

We stood on a gas station without thumb or sign and some nice catalunyan guy asked us where are we going, we told him we need to get to the countryside so we can sleep and he offered to us that he will took us to his home so we can build up a tent on his garden. We were lucky, it was evening and a weekday, Lots of truck drivers and I think it is not the best spot..

Stood there with a sign to smaller town on the coast, but get a ride in direction Barcelona with a funny german guy in caravan.
Mainly locals went here, it was a weekday in the early evening, a boy and a girl

When i was dropped off by the Mallorcans i was initially nervous, it didnt look like much, but this seemingly empty (albeit very pretty) view point is a surprisingly excellent spot!
You can stand under one of palm trees, behind the barrier before the exit from the view point, be in perfect view of the drivers and in the shade; functionally hitching directly off of the road! I got a ride in under five minutes from a fantastic Catalan man called Juan-Ramon, who took me all the way to Barcelona!
My aim for the day was Tarragona, so being able to make it all the way to Barcelona was absolutely amazing!
In Barcelona i would meet a Greek girl and we would take the train together to Montserrat for El Dia De San Joan..
