== Hitching out ==
=== Direction North, South, East ===
====Option 1====
The [[A5 (Germany)|A5]] is passing Karlsruhe and connects it to [[Frankfurt am Main]], [[Basel]], [[Stuttgart]] and other cities.
The best ramp is Karlsruhe-Durlach. Take the tram '''1''', '''2''', '''S4''' or '''S5''' to ''Weinweg''. There is a gas station close by where you can ask people, or you can stand nearby the exit of the gas station - around 10 meters away from it. There is a safe place where the people can turn off behind you. You can also stand directly on the ramp, waving a sign or a thumb. The hard shoulder serves enough space for anyone to stop, but the cars go quite fast.

====Option 2====
Near [[Bruchsal]], there is a very huge service area at the [[A5 (Germany)|A5]]. It's about 1 hour by tram and bus and the fare is 3 EUR. See [[Bruchsal]] for details.
===Direction South, West, East===
The Bus Station ''Beiertheim West'' makes a good hitchhiking spot in direction south ([[A5 (Germany|A5]], [[Basel]]) but there are also many cars going in direction [[Stuttgart]] or [[Landau]].
It is served by the bus no. 062 from ''Hauptbahnhof'' or ''Entenfang'', but you can also take tram no. 2 to ''Welfenstraße'' or just walk 10 minutes from the main station along ''Eberstraße''.
Public transport is quite good. The tram lines go into all the neighbouring towns. Within the city, they go all night at weekends. Fares are about 2 EUR per trip. Tickets are checked quite often, even at night.
