“Not a very good spot to go south, most people here were going towards Vienna and Graz or into Salzburg.”

“Got a ride on a truck headed to Vienna. It's easy and offers many options (most drivers going West/North will stop here since fuel in Austria is about 20-30 cents cheaper than in Germany and even those coming from Germany will wait to get into Austria before refueling for the same reason), you just need to know where to stop.”

“It's a good hitchhiking place depending where you go. Traffic mainly flows to South Europe. Wien and Budapest is very rare... Try Nurnberg -> Passau instead.”

“tried to catch a lift to Vienna, that I got after 45min but generally most of the cars go south. it is probably a quite good spot: many cars, parking place, gas station and mc donalds restaurant :-)”

“We waited 10 minutes but we got many reactions of drivers who just didn't drive far enough for us.”

“1,2 and 3 guys, weekdays, direction Wien, Linz This seems to be very good place, but only if you are heading south, not many cars are going north. We had to spend night there and then hitchike for next three hours to get a ride at least in A1 directin. We were three, then two, but I only managed to get ride when I was alone, cars were usually completely full and all trucks were heading south.”

“A huge petrol station at the border [[Germany]] /Austria. A lot of traffic is going South to Trieste, [[Slovenia]]. Definitely not a good spot to Vienna or Budapest.”

“Not very legal but everyone leaving has to pass you, so there's tons of traffic. There's a small spot where the car can stop to let you in before returning to the A1.”
