== Hitchhiking out ==
 
=== North towards [[Tulcan]], [[Colombia]] ===
Get a bus from the Carcelen-Terminal in the very north heading towards [[Cayambe]], [[Otavalo]], [[Ibarra]], or [[Tulcan]]. Get out at the first "peáje"([[Tolltoll-Station]])station. The bus will take 15min. (If There you take one of the buses from the terminal heading to a city further can easily ask for lifts going north.  === North-West towards La Mitts del Mundo, they'll charge at least $1[[Mindo]] === Take a bus to the neighborhood of Carcelén. From there, but if you can walk about 1km down the road east to reach the bridge, you can get a local bus for $avenue Simon Bolívar.35Start hitchhiking there, as of March 2015.) There you can easily ask for lifts going norththere is several good spots at the roundabouts
=== South towards [[Ambato]], [[Cuenca]], [[Loja]], [[Guayaquil]], [[Peru]]===
 
There are two options:
* Get the trole-bus to the '''Quitumbe-Terminal''' in the very south, from there catch any bus in direction south and get out at any point of the Panamericana. The first "peáje" ist quite far ($0,75), so it is probably better to get out before (for example in Tumbillo, there is a gas station).
* Go to '''El trebol''' (big junction near "La Marin" in the center, final station of the Ecovia-bus). From there catch a bus in direction Tumbillo/Machachi and get out in Tumbillo (~$0,50). There is a gas station nearby.
== Public transportation ===== Blackriding ===The turnstiles Get the trole-bus to the '''Quitumbe-Terminal''' in the very south, from there catch any bus in direction south and get out at the exits any point of the stations for the rapid transit buses seem Panamericana. The first "peáje" ist quite far, so it is probably better to often not lock get out before (maybe the couple I tried were just brokenfor example in Tambillo, there is a gas station) so . The bus from Quitumbe to Tambillo is 0,55 cents per person you can just walk in will find it at the bottom of the exitstation. This trip is about 21 Km. There do not appear to be ticket controls on the buses(May-2022 @patagonia.almundo)
== Personal Experiences ==:Go to '''El trebol'''I arrived very late at night(big junction near "La Marin" in the center, and this was final station of the first time I got Ecovia-bus). From there catch a ride without asking for one. The cops pulled over bus in direction Tambillo/Machachi and asked me what the hell I was doin walking get out in that neighborhood and was I crazy? They gave me Tambillo. There is a ride to my friend's placegas station nearby.'' -[[User:Chael777|Chael777]]
:''Going south from Quito, I arrived to the terminal Quitumbe. There is possible to take a bus to Tumbillo for 0,5 USD which is on Panamericana. But I walked in the direction of Panamericana by Avenida Mariscal Sucre and started to hitch there, it took me 3 cars (including one lift from a taxi) and a bit more than 1 hour to get to Tumbillo, where was a good spot to hitch further'' -[[User:che.apelsin|che.apelsin]]== Nomadwiki & Trashwiki ==
