Canberra is the capital city of Australia.
Hitchhiking out
Heading North
Catch a bus that goes up Northbourne Ave to the intersection of Federal Hwy (route 23) and try to catch a ride going down Federal Hwy, which connects back on to the Hume Hwy (route 31) straight to Sydney. There is a nice stopping lane along the first kilometre or so of Federal Hwy, which makes it easy for cars to pull over, plus the speed limit is not very high at that stretch.
Heading South
Catch a bus that goes up Northbourne Ave to the intersection of Barton Hwy (route 25) and try to catch a ride going up Barton Hwy, which connects back on to the Hume Hwy straight to Melbourne. Alternately, you can get onto the Monaro Hwy (route 23) south of Canberra city, but this route will probably be more local traffic and less likely to find a ride straight through to Melbourne.
