“Before the construction around 5min to 30min (dependant on the time of the day) direction Frankfurt. Ask at the gas station and/or at the restaurant”

“Good and crowded place, there are many options: stay by the road, ask drivers... It convenient to hitch-hike from here towards west and south directions. Also you can meet here a lot of other hitch-hikers in summer. The best option is to come here in the morning.”

“2-6-2016, around waited around 20 minutes in a sunny day. I left around 15:00 and got a straight right to Amsterdam. Some intercity traffic, but the traffic light made it a perfect in between of a hitch-spot and parking-place/gas-station.”
