Not much space to pull over; they have to go into the side road but it was getting late and I thought I would try my chances. Got a ride with a couple going to Wils SG in 10 minutes! Not sure if I would recommend this spot though even though there is decent traffic it is a bit awkward.

Great spot with some space to pull over and lots of traffic towards Saint Gällen from the border. Met another hitchhiker here going the opposite direction! Got a ride to Saint Gällen using the other hitchhikers sign for Zürich with a German couple in 30 minutes.

Super friendly people stopped quickly. McDonald’s, gas station, and traffic circle nearby.

good spot to ask around at the gas station. you could also signal people from the road but they go a bit fast. got a ride to st gallen

kinda a funky spot but there was enough room to safely pull over but not too much traffic. hard to find a ride east. i got picked up but there was a miscommunication and he ended up taking me south

impossible to rate this spot accurately because we got a lift from the first people we asked straight to zürich. probably helps to have german, there was a few cars parked here midday on a weekday, but not more than five. places for sleeping behind the rest station if youre in a pinch.

hard to believe but maybe this is a great spot. no space to pull over rlly but cars stop for the red light so you have some time to charm them with your great sign and pretty smiles.
fair amount of traffic and ppl were really friendly - we even got handed a wedge of cheese from a guy waiting at the red light because he was so excited to see hitchhikers.

loads of traffic for switzerland, a lot of people cross the border for work so getting here early you catch commuter traffic to st gallen etc. also a few swiss cars driving by with sg plates, bathroom at the petrol station right behind to refill water and bins filled with cardboard for all your sign making needs :-)

Directly in front of the gate for the first parking lot. It took a little, but it worked out really well (obviously also a bit lucky). You can also try to ask at the parkin lots, people offered us rides but not in the needed direction.
