Worth seeing is [http://www.egapark-erfurt.de/pb/site/egapark/node/192230/Lde/index.html EGApark], the official garden exhibition ground of Erfurt and Thuringia.= Hitchhiking out =
'''To Option 3: On B7, shortly before the interchange with A71 (Eisenacher Straße corner to Hersfelder Straße), there is a large IKEA you reach it by bus 80 (Friendstedt), 891 (Gotha Hauptbahnhof) or Eisenach 894 (westward on B7Bienstädt))'''furniture market where it should be possible to find more than a handful of drivers that can bring you to any place in the region or the Autobahn A71
There is a third alternative finding drivers = Hitchhiking in westward direction: On B7, shortly before the interchange with A71 (Eisenacher Straße corner = As most people tend to pass Erfurt on Autobahn A4 ask to Hersfelder Straße), there is a large IKEA furniture market where it should be possible to find more than dropped of at "Urbicher Kreuz". It's a handful of drivers that five minutes ride from the exit "Erfurt-Ost". There you can bring catch the tram number 3 which takes you to any place in the regioncity center.
If you are going from Erfurt to Stuttgart do not go and take a ride to city Suhl because they can only leave you on some rest parking place near highway. It is like in middle of nowhere and there is very hard to catch some ride and go back to high way. Even later on high way when you move toward Schweinfurt if somebody left you on some petrol station on the way it is also very hard to catch ride because there is so less traffic there, you must go and ask every driver, maybe it was just bad luck that day. When you come to Wurzburg there you have petrol station, very big parking area and restaurant with a lot of cars and it will be much easier than before.

Option 1: Take the tram number 4 in the direction 'Flughafen Erfurt''To reach Autobahn A4 (Frankfurt, Eisenach, DresdenErfurt airport) or Autobahn . Exit at "Volkenroder Weg" and you'll see two petrol stations. Between them there is enough space for cars to stop if you stand on the roadside with a sign "A71 (Schweinfurt, Würzburg)'''".

Exit and get off at "Volkenroder Weg" and you'll see two petrol stationsHaarberg. Between them there The bus station is enough space for cars about 1km away from the ramp and next to stop if you stand on the roadside with a parking lot. Better bring a sign "A71"that points out your direction.
Option 4: During rush hour (from 3pm to 5pm) a lot of cars are leaving Erfurt in direction [[Weimar]] or [[Jena]]. Go to '''Weimarsche Straße'''. There are two lanes and traffic lights and a bike path along the road. It does not have a border stone so cars can stop easily. Bring a sign "JENA" or "A4". People might take you along the Bundesstraße or to the gas station "Eichelborn" which is only several kilometers after entering the A4 eastwards.
== Only south towards Würzburg {{Autobahn|71}} ==
If you don't mind to take a train, take the regional one towards Ilmenau. Get off in Geraberg (40 minutes ride, ~5€, only once per hour) and follow "Bahnhofsstraße" in direction city center to it's end. Turn right on "Arnstädter Straße" and then the second left on "Talstraße". After passing the last house to your right, turn right and walk the field path approximatly ten minutes to the gas stations "Thüringer Wald Nord". On your way you'll cross beneath the Autobahn.
== West towards Gotha or Eisenach (Bundestraße B7) ==
Take tram number 2 from the city center to the commercial fairground and exhibition center [http://www.messe-erfurt.de/ Messe Erfurt] to the stop 'mdr/kinderkanal' or 'messe', walk over 'Gothaer Straße' to the 'Real' supermarket and ask drivers standing at the traffic light.
