== Hitching in ==
'''From East (A4):''' Ask the driver if he can bring you a bit closer to Eisenach to the old Autobahn ([http://goo.gl/maps/7K5oj]), it will be just 5 min longer for him to take this way because from there it is very easy to head on West as you see on the map. And you are now very close to the entrance of Eisenach. You can reach the city centre from there in an half-hour-walk. Or: Just leave the car at the exit "Eisenach-Ost" and try to catch a lift to Eisenach directly at the exit. Never took us more than 5 minutes!
'''From West (A4):''' Ask the driver either to let you out at the exit Eisenach West and hope for a ride to Eisenach or ask the driver to bring you a bit closer to Eisenach to the old Autobahn ([http://goo.gl/maps/1huwb]), it will be just 5 min longer for him to take this way because it he goes just over the hill East back to the A4, Eisenach Ost as you see on the map. And you are now a bit closer to the city center. Either you take the bus from Marktkauf or Eisenach Nord in direction Hauptbahnhof or you have an half-hour-walk.
'''West:''' To reach [http://www.autohof-guide.de/lomo-autohof-eisenach-sued.html LOMO Autohof Eisenach] from the city centre of Eisenach you can take bus number 1 to the 'Marktkauf' supermarket and shopping mall. Get off there and walk 10 minutes uphill to one of the many traffic lights on 'Mühlhäuser Straße'. It should not take more than minutes to find a (commuting) driver that can bring you to the 'LOMO Autohof' on A4. Build a cardboard sign indicating 'A4 / E 40' (or 'Autohof') on it. The Autohof is on one side of the autobahn situated for both directions, once you have reached it you do not need to change sides (east/west).
And 2 important facts: Don't wonder about the name "Autohof", its a propper gas station and its quite easy to hitchhike! And you can hitchhike two both directions from one side, but there are two gas stations! On on the upper level to the west and one on the other level to east. Or take Bus 5 to "Karlskuppe" and start hitchhiking directly at the bus station. From the Eisenach LOMO Autohof you should be able to reach [[Erfurt]] (30 40 minutes), Jena (60 minutes) or [[Dresden]] (one hour two hours and 30 minutes) in eastward direction as well as [[Kassel]] (60 70 minutes) or [[Frankfurt]] (one hour and 30 50 minutes) and gas station "Kirchheimer Dreieck" (45 minutes, where you can switch two A7 direction Hamburg) in westward direction.
