'''Karlsruhe''' is a city in [[Germany]] in the federal state (“Bundesland”) [[Baden-Württemberg]], located close to the French border and connected by the [[A5 (Germany)|A5]] and [[A8 (Germany)|A8]].
== Hitchhiking out ==
The [[A5 (Germany)|A5]] is passing Karlsruhe and connects it to [[Frankfurt am Main]], [[Basel]], [[Stuttgart]] and other cities.
The best ramp for the directions North and East is Karlsruhe-Durlach. Take the tram '''1''', '''2''', '''S4''' or '''S5''' to ''Weinweg''. There is a petrol station close by where you can ask people, or you can stand nearby the exit of the petrol station - around 10 meters away from it. There is a safe place where the people can turn off behind you. You can also stand directly on the ramp, waving a sign or a thumb. The hard shoulder serves enough space for anyone to stop, but the cars go a little fast.
__TOC__
==== Option 2 ====
==== Option 3 ====
There is a service station in [[Baden-Baden]], 30 km south of Karlsruhe. Be aware that this station is only situated on the southbound side. From Karlsruhe this is about a 45 minute journey with public transport or a 1.5 journey if you have to walk from the station in Baden-Baden. See [[Baden-Baden]] for details.
''Cholopacker: despicted the fact that takes time to get to Option 3, I think is the best option if going South to Freiburg, Switzerland or Lyon (but not throught Switzerland), once here I found a ride quite fast to the last gas station before Freiburg and then to France.''
=== Direction South, West, East {{Autobahn|5}} {{Autobahn|8}} {{Autobahn|65}} {{E|35}} {{E|52}} ===
It is served by the bus no. 062 from ''Hauptbahnhof'' or ''Entenfang'', but you can also take tram no. 2 to ''Welfenstraße'' or just walk 10 minutes from the main train station along ''Ebertstraße''.
== Hitching in ==
The most practical place are probably the exits ''Zentrum'' and ''Durlach''. You driver will loose about 5 minutes, but you will get dropped right next to a tram station that is served 24/7 (10 minutes journey to the city center).
== Internet Access Resources ==In the town center, between ''Europaplatz'' and ''Marktplatz'' there are a some info terminals called ''blue spots'' where you can see town maps, send emails and surf the internet for free.{{nomadwiki}}
