__NOTOC__<map lat='47.883197023516125' lng='1.9068145751953125' zoom='11' view='0' float='right'/>'''Orléans''' is a city in the [[Centre_%28France%29Centre (France)|Centre]] of [[France]]. It is may be extremely difficult to get out of if not dropped off in a decent spot for traffic heading out of the city and everywhere seems to be a continuation of a suburb or industrial complex. [[User:Whisperingofthestars|Jason]] has got stuck here for hours quite a few times.Fortunately you can easily reach the highway by streetcar  == Hitchhiking out ==Try to get as far out of the city center as you can, its a little comparable to [[Paris]] but not as huge. === North toward Paris ===Head to the start of Rue Nationale http://bit.ly/SctEuZ. From here there is either the opportunity to hitch at the beginning of the highway or at the start of the national road to Paris. The national road seems to have more small trucks going on it to avoid the tolls of the highway, but you have to walk a bit further north (100m or so) to a driveway or something for cars to be able to pull over. === North/South/West/East towards [[Nevers]], [[Montargis]], [[Sens]] and [[E60]] ===The only advice that can seemingly be found is on [http://www.hitchbase.com/ HitchBase] - Take the bus number 8 (=> going to ''Herveline'') , and get out of the bus just after it turns left (when you are really out of the city, after ''l'avenue des droits de l'hommme'') then go back to the roundabout and go straight: it's really easy for the drivers to stop because they can park safely on the right.

==Hitching Out= A10 ===Try Take streetcar (tramway) line 2 from the center until the end stop "Georges Pompidou". Go back to the roundabout and the highway will be on your left. Stand at the [[péage]] (very easy, no need to jump or climb anything) that goes to get as far out of the city centre as A10 where you can, its easily get a ride towards [[Bordeaux]]. It's also a little comparable very good way to go further south towards [[ParisSpain]] but not as huge, west (Tours) and North (Paris or Montargis).

===North/South/West/East towards [[Nevers]]Went to Paris from here, [[Montargis]], [[Sens]], [[Osten]] and [[E60]]===The only advice that can seemingly be found is on [[hitchbase]] - Take the bus number 8 (=> most people are going to "Herveline") , and get out the bus just after it turn left A71 (when you are really out of the city, after "l'avenue des droits de l'hommme"towards Toulouse) then go back or to the roundabout A10 but headed for Tours. I waited an hour and go straight: it's really easy for the drivers had to stop because they can park safely on the righrefuse a grand total of 7 cars that were headed south/west. -dws49, April 2021

==Public TransportSleep and fun==

==Places A river runs through Orleans. It is possible to Visit==sleep along the river as long as you find a good spot with not too many people walking by. The downtown section near the river is the place to go for some fun on a weekend. People are great and open, as they've probably been drinking. Share a drink and listen to some good music with the locals.
