On the begging of the parking next to a street. Thanks to this and bicycle lane on road there is small place for stopping here even if parking spots itself are occupied. Direction Cannobio/Switzerland

This is a very good spot I take all the time when I need to go from Boudry to la Chaux-de-Fonds or Biel/Bienne or further. Cars have a lot of space to stop and they don't come too fast :). We were once 4 with big bags and we travel toward Ticino !

It took us quite a long time for a ride to Chur. Better option is to go to Zurich from here. But the place is amazing for hitch-hiking as it's crowded with people going north!
Many cars we asked were actually full so have that in mind

I had to wait the whole night till i got a ride in the Chur direction. Should be much better for Zurich or Basel as most of the cars passing by headed there. If you get stuck, like i did, it's a good place to stay the night because it's Restaurant and Toilets are open 24 hours and theres many places to take a nap around the station.

I stopped here thinking it would be a good place to get a ride north on the A13 on my way to Munich, but after 40mins of people saying they were going on the A2 towards Basel, I gave in and took a ride to 'Gunzgen Nord' to continue east towards Munich on the A1. This turned out to be a good stradegy (even though a fair detour) as i go a direct lift from there to Munich :)

A single female hitchhike had luck here and the first car that saw her picked her up until 25 KM from Milano, but that's no more then an avarge spot.

A good chance for a long lift, german and swiss tourists passing, but also local traffic, go on the ramp where you'll find a large hard shoulder to stand and stop on.
