testé à deux et ça marche !!

Going South/Grenoble: I like the spot, lots of space, but people in this area always seem to be in a rush, both times I stood here I had to wait a long time. (First time I was going to Lyon and had to go to another place) Though people coming from north and from sout who want to go on the highway south have to pass here, so it seems to be the best option around.

Going South/Grenoble. Better to go a bit north, there is like a gravel lane for cars to stop. A lot more obvious for the drivers that you can stop here.

Going West/to France. Super easy spot lots of space, but only cars coming from Austria are covered. But I always got a quick ride here

I found a ride to Thônex, right before Genève, but waited for 40min - I think most of the people passing don't drive as far as Genève or go south to Annecy.

You can wait under the trees in the shadows and there's a good place to stop on the right. The cars also drive slowly because of the traffic from the people turning left to the gas station.

be fast and discreet to get to the spot at the money exchange building.

I wasn't (waving at the cars on my way there), and a Swiss police dude came to say it was forbidden to hitchhike there ('cause supposedly its a highway), and that I had no choice but to walk away to the nearest town (where I d be screwd, since I wanted to stick to the highway on my way to Portugal).

luckily, I asked the truck drivers waiting at the douane park, and one took me.

even if people don't go further than Annecy, take a ride to the nearby rest station Aire des Pont-de-la-caille (there is no gas station until Annecy), where it should be easy to find people going further.

Good spot, even marked by an official autostop sign. I tried hitchhiking from further in the city center but probably best just to walk all the way up here bcs didnt have any luck there. Also tried the parallel road to the east, which is more busy but cars are going too fast to stop

This is the best spot towards chamonix, but very little traffic going out of the city in the morning on weekdays, people mostly drive towards chamonix in weekends. I went to the speedbump at one point but after some time the border control came over and asked me to move further away so i recommend just staying at the round "no pedestrians" sign.

Having hitchhiked a lot out of geneva, it is so much better to just go straight to the bardonnex douane than trying from here. Either just take transit, or like me rent a donkey bike, which can be returned in the small towns close to the douane. To get into the douane there is just a small gate to the west, out of sight, that can be jumped easily

Decent spot, space to pull over, but cars are going fast even though it is a turn. Best option if you come from courmayeur like we did. We walked up here to join the big road because the traffic out of the town was non-existant, but it was also on a sunday. It isnt possible to walk all the way up to the tunnel from here, I wouldnt risk it.

Très bon spot, les voitures peuvent très bien s'arrêter
Un pu d'attente tout de même et beaucoup de chance car des locaux allant à Bonneville nous ont amené jusqu'à Samoëns

40 minutes of walking on the road, quite dangerous, good amount of cars but noone stopping even if there's only one way
But the guy that took us was really kind
