REALLY UNDERRATED SPOT!!! I waited 5 minutes just across the border on the Austrian side with a sign for Munich and got a ride with a Polish van driver going to Vienna. You can get really long distances here its a very commonly used border crossing from Switzerland to far away with lots of traffic.―Arcturus

I had to wait here because of construction but still I was getting all the traffic coming from Liechtenstein. Waited with a sign for Au SG and got a ride there with a cool Swiss person coming home from work.―Arcturus

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.―Arcturus

Pretty quickly got a ride to the Swiss Austrian border in Lustenau. Lots of space to pull over but some cars go fast and there are 2 lanes. Still I got a ride with an Austrian person who was coming back from Dornbirn after composting his rotten fruit.―Arcturus

I was heading west towards Switzerland with a sign CH. Lots and lots of traffic and some space on the roundabout but many people are going different directions or not willing to take you. Eventually I made a sign for Feldkirch and was switching between the 2 when I got a ride (with the Feldkirch sign) with a lovely Austrian couple going to Germany!―Arcturus

Excellent spot! Plenty of traffic going in multiple directions. I succeeded in getting an Austrian who was going to Bregenz to take me across the Swiss border. I even turned down three other offers within the 17 minutes to closer destinations. Good luck:)―daniellorell

Horrible spot with basically no cars. I got really lucky someone was going towards Switzerland where I was going near Liechtenstein (the second car). Would not recommend this spot though.―Arcturus

Had a sign FL for Liechtenstein right next to the petrol station entrance where there was plenty of room to stop. No one stopped except one person going in the opposite direction. Eventually I got a ride with an Austrian living in Dornbirn to a petrol station near the town on the motorway. Ok spot but mainly locals and Germans. Difficult to find someone going south.―Arcturus

I want to find a car direction Sankt Anton / Innsbruck, but no one stops.Although it is close to highway, I think it's not a good place, most of the cars went back home from work I think because of the time (16 pm)

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―Johj

Good place even in evning. All cars from lindau goes thru this point on the highway + there is a lot of option where to hichhike. I did crosswalk but could also talk to people on gass station or waited next to mcdonal―Sova

we’ve tried asking on the gas stop, standing with the sign before and after the roundabout. it was quick enough, we got a ride to dornbirn because we didn’t have any particular direction in plans, just to reach the mountains.―vikv

VERY VERY quiet on a tuesday evening, but the first man i asked was super kind and helpful and took me to a great spot on the border towards munich:)) The Lustenau crossing, he told me, is much better if you want to catch the traffic going to munich, as the höchst crossing is less used.―Frederik
