Just walk on the ring of '''Leuven''' to the ''Tervuursevest'' and hitch along the ''Koning Boudewijnlaan''. You will see many cars parked along the road, so you can start to hitch from there.
=== East towards [[Liège|Liege]], [[Genk]], [[Germany]], [[Netherlands]] / West towards [[Brussels]], [[Gent]] ===
The E40 is passing at quite a distance on the southern side of the city, but there is a service station which can be a good spot to hitch a quick ride east towards [[Liège|Liege]] and [[Germany]] or west towards [[Brussels]] or [[Gent]]. The service station direction west is also the last one before the ring of Brussels.
Another option, if you are already in the Eastern Part of the city (such as Bierbeek or Kessel-lo), is to walk to the junction of the N25 (Tiensesteenweg - Meerdalboslaan) which leads to the E40 at Exit 23. You can either try to hitch a ride at the junction or simply walk the 2-3km along the Expressweg to the E40 itself and hitch on the On-Ramp (which is having a large shoulder).
If you're heading east into the city, you can get off at one of the main highway service stations and just ask people there if they are continuing on to your destination. i.e. Genk is the next major city heading East.
=== North towards [[Mechelen]] ===
