What hitchhikers said along this route

“A good spot in direction to Dresden. We stayed there only 5-10 minutes and got a ride directly to Dresden. A lot of cars are passing by, even on holidays. Just don't forget to stay before the gas station as it's better for drivers to stop there.”

“I used this spot as filter from Berin drivers... here stops only people who goes to south (Dresden, Czech) or east (Poland). If you are going south you can ask drivers at Berlin ring going to Poland drop you here. Just filter.”

“It is a little, normaally frequented place. The people here are nice and usually go direction Dresden, you don't have to ask often. Once I had a good experience here”

“10 minutes and to dresden, pretty sweet”

“This spot had a surprising amount of people even at 8 pm. We had only asked a couple of drivers of we could hitch a ride to Dresden before we were approached and offered a ride. We saw a lot of families stopping here, so finding a ride as a pair could be more difficult.”

“Some people from Dresden asked us if we wanted to join. We were 2 people. Alot of Chech cars too.”
