→West towards Hoek van Holland and ferries to England
=== West towards Hoek van Holland and ferries to [[England]] ===
The ferries from the Hook of Holland to England do not often carry trucks and therefore do not always offer free options. To get to the ferry terminal you can blackride the train to Hoek Van Hollland Haven. You can also hitch there from one of the many service stations on the A20 with someone going on the ferry. After speaking to drivers on the A20, most trucks passing through there terminate at the port, which means no free ferry. That being said, you could hitch to where they terminate and continue to Calais, though I have not tried this;
At the Hook Of Holland you can ride a ferry to [[Harwich]], England. It is hard if not impossible to get across without paying. On the ferry you can ask around to find someone driving to your destination, even walking around with a hitch sign, and possibly start a conversation ([[therobohobo]] did this and got a great ride to [[Liverpool]]) In Harwich there is an abandoned gas station you can sleep in.
