'''Verona''' is a city in the North of [[Italy]]. It is close to the famous [[Lake Garda]] (Lago di Garda), where many german tourists can be foundgo. Maybe you can also try to hitchhike from there (but [[User:Quarim|Quarim]] found it difficult in June 2009), though maybe he was in the wrong spot.. Check the quite well built [http://www.atv.verona.it/flex/cm/pages/ServeBLOB.php/L/EN/IDPagina/1?54becaac19b5a public transport website] in english for any information about [http://www.atv.verona.it/flex/cm/pages/ServeBLOB.php/L/EN/IDPagina/7 lines, timetables] as also [http://www.atv.verona.it/flex/cm/pages/ServeBLOB.php/L/EN/IDPagina/91 ticket prices].
== Hitch-hiking ==
===East towards [[Padova]], [[Venice]], [[Trieste]] and [[Slovenia]]===
You have (at least) two options from the city:
I haven*the cheapest but probably slower one: take bus 61 from the centre (1.30€) and try thumbing from the entrance of the motorway (Verona Sud) which is straight some 1-2 km after the bus stop, ask the driver for "casello Verona Sud" *the slightly more expensive but probably much faster one: go to Sommacampagna, there's a petrol station (named Bauli like the famous "panettone", christmas sweet) right on the motorway few km west of the city (you can check it better on gmaps, it displays the name). Take from the main railway station the bus to Sommacampagna or Villafranca (should be n°160, not sure though) and get off where the driver will tell you. Turn right from the bus route, then left at the first stop sign, should be about 1km walking, the gas station fence is very easily jumpable. ===West towards [[Brescia]], [[Milano]], [[Torino]] and [[France]]===Didn't tried hitch-hiking directly try this way yet, though should be easier from the motorway entrance "Verona but have from Nord". Quite near, west of the city, reachable with public transport. ===Other Options===From Peschiera, that is a place near Lago di Garda (and Gardaland). The the train from Verona to Peschiera is about 5 euros and there was no control in the train because the distance is really short, but if you pay (and keep) the ticket you can store your luggage in Gardaland for free.When you get to Peschiera it is about 2-3 kilometers walk from the center to the entrance on the highway and you can hitchike might try hitchiking from there.

Be sure to go to the tourist info office near the Arena because you can get a free map and discounts on different things such as tickets for the shows in Arena or Gardaland.
There is free wi-fi at every major square/street in Verona but you need a password which you can get at the National Library (also in the center, ask for directions at the tourist office).
