“I waited two times directly in front of the Jet gas station and both times I got a ride within 5 minutes. There is no better way to travel.”

“Aside of a Jet fuel station, so you can wait with a sign (cars can stop at the small intersection behind) or ask people. Still lots of local traffic, unfortunately.”

“Very good with a Sign. Asking People at the Petrol Station is not very helpful beause of much local traffic, but maybe you are lucky.”

“from the city take the S2 direction to Petershausen and get off at Obermenzing, then just follow the Verdistraße to the end, it's a 10 minutes walk to get there, but you can already try hitchhiking during the walk...”

“Tried to get a ride to Nuremberg and Frankfurt (with sign) and waited 3 hours including asking people at the gas station … without success”

“Had a sign (A8 Westen) took about 50min to get a ride. Asked people at the Gas station and stood next to the rode with a sign. Not the best place to stop as the rode has two lines. Two women took me and where so nice to drive me a bit further than their destination. Had to wait 50min, loads of local traffic and rich Munich people that don’t look at you”

“I keep having great experiences at this spot and frequently found rides straight to Stuttgart and beyond. Absolutely recommended. If you're hitchhiking with 2 people it's usually best to have one person asking around, and another one with a sign a bit before the gas station.”
