=== SouthwestThere are two bus stops on Mannerheiminkatu (road 12) between Vesijärvenkatu/Uudenmaankatu and Iso-Paavolankatu, [[Riihimäki]]as marked on the map. The first of which is a better location to hitchhike from due to it being close to a junction where cars will be travelling at a slower speed. There is another bus stop with good visibility on Mannerheiminkatu (road 12) just West of Hollolankatu/Helsingintie, [[Häeenlinna]]as marked on the map. <!--I removed this text as it's confusing and suggests almost leaving the city to be able to hitchhike, which is not necessary.Walk about 2km to a bus stop from the railway station. Next to the station under the railway there is a road called Vesijärventie that goes to Launee. Walk on it to south about 20min until you see a McD's and a K-rauta (hardware store). Next to K-rauta there is a bus stop, which is a good hithc-hiking place. you can also try to find a bus from Kauppatori that goes to that bus stop.--> === West towards [[TurkuHämeenlinna]], {{Vfi|12}} {{Vfi|10}} and North-West towards [[Tampere]]) {{Vfi|12}} === There are several bus stops along Mannerheiminkatu (road 12) which are suitable as hitchhiking spots.

Walk from the marketplace on a road that goes by the conservatory and by the bus station on al hill. This road is the old road to Helsinki (if you want experience the real country life :). From the top of the hill there goes a road down to right, it leads to Tampere. Walk along it about 5-10min, over the railroad and over a walking road. There is a traffic light next to a bus stop, where you can usually catch a ride to at least Hollola.
The road going to Riihimäaki goes left right after Hollola. This road takes you also to Turku.
Later there is a chance to take a turn to Hämeenlinna and Jämsä
