===Direction north ([[Basel]], [[Zürich]], [[Biel]], [[Luzern]])===
From the train station, take the bus #11 to Neufeld P+R to the last station (You can use a short distance ticket for 2,- CHF.). Walk 5 minutes to a roundabout with a nice hard shoulder. You should use a sign, as there is a lot of local traffic.
From the train station, take the bus #20 to the station Wyler (buy a ticket 'zone 1-2' for 3.80 CHF). Walk 200m on the left side of the street (on your right you see a huge stadium, then cross the big crossroads. Right there you see a bus stop (Bus #28) where there is enough space for cars to stop. Use a sign! Cars driving past there can go to Zurich, Basel, Biel, Luzern,... You can take any lift to get onto the highway (A1), right after Bern (3min) there is the service area "Grauholz" where you can change quite easily.
'''update September 2008:''' there are construction works and therefore the bus stop is much smaller than normal. Hitchhiking is still possible, but the place is not that good anymore. From August 2009 until 2012 it is not possible anymore to get on the highway in Wankdorf. The traffic will be led to Neufeld.
== Option 3: Ostring==
From the train station, take tram #5 to Ostring (final station). Just stand in front of the highway entrance. It's not the best place because cars can't see you from far away, but when it's raining you can place yourself under the highway bridge. And there is enough place for cars to stop.
