Cannes
Cannes is a city in southern France.
Very rich city full of luxury people and cars.
Hitching out
Option #1: Roundabout
It's easy to get out of this city. The roundabout of the motorway E80 is connected with the city via Avenue du Campon and the Boulevard Carnot. From the train station there is a Bus 630 Valbon (frequency one each hour) that puts you directly before the roundabout. Stop in "Chemin Belvedere" or ask to the driver. Also you can take the Bus 1 from the same train station (frequency 10 minutes) but you will need to walk all the Avenue du Campon around 1 km.
At the roundabout you can go to both directions, east to Nice and west to Marseille.
Option #2: Aire de service on the A8
If you want to hitch a big distance or it is simply too crowded for cars to stop during rush hour at option 1, it might be better to start hitching at the closest autoroute rest stop. Take Bus 1 until stop "Mairie du Cannet" and then Bus 24 until "Julia." Or take a very long uphill walk.
- If you want to go west towards Marseille, cross the bridge to the other side of the autoroute, turn right and walk until Aire de Les Breguieres Nord
- If you want to go east towards Nice, walk straight past the bridge instead until you reach Aire de la Côte d'Azur
Both rest areas are quite big with good traffic, getting a lift from there is very easy.
