'''Nürnberg''' ([[England|English]]: ''Nuremberg'') is a city in [[Germany]].
== Hitchhiking out ==
===A73 and then onto: A9 direction [[Munich|München]], A6 Directions East ([[Prague]]) and West ([[Heilbronn]], [[Stuttgart]]) ===
There is the [http://hitchwiki.org/maps/?place=6201 Aral gas petrol station spot] to get out of Nuremberg onto the A73 at entry/exit "Zollhaus".
Cars will be going onto the A9 direction South (Munich etc.) and onto the A6 in both directions. The spot is Münchner Straße across the road from Burger King, you can get there by taking the bus 65 to "Bayernstraße".
There is the exit lane to the gas petrol station after the big crossroads so cars can stop for you easily. A [[sign]] will probably help, since people here go in many directions.
=== A9 direction [[Berlin]] or [[Munich|München]] from the service station Feucht ===Go It takes about an hour to get there, but from the [http://tank.rast.de/standorte/suche/detail.html?ID=274 Raststätte Feucht/Nürnberg] (service station)South of Nuernberg you can easily hitchhike North or South along the [[A9_(Germany)|A9]]. From You''Nürnberg Hbf'' (the main train station) you ll have to take the ''S-Bahn'' to ''Feucht'', where you have to walk through the whole neighbourhood out of the train station walk in direction of "parking" for cycle just after you will find a small patch following the motorway until the entrance trough the wood, at the entrance go on the other side of the road from where the car leaving the motorway are, (you can't access to the service station from the side of the entrance it's not really safe to cross the road after and anyway the cops in the police station will see you from their windows) walk to the motorway pass the first bridge 15 minutes and go down where there is a small stair you can then just walk between the motorway and the train line another 30-40 minutes to the service stationarea.
=== A6 Directions East ([[Prague]]) and West ([[Heilbronn]], [[Stuttgart]]) ===
When you go direction Prague, use a [[signs|sign]] "[[Amberg]]". There will be the [[petrol station hitchhiking|petrol station]] "[[Oberpfälzer Alb South]]" shortly before that city. So it's not a bad idea to wait for someone going across the border at the petrol station.
Otherwise you can go with local traffic from Amberg to the border, hitching from one motorway entrance to another. In this case, you're likely to end up at [[Waidhaus]], the last German village before the border. If you were dropped in the village, instead of going back to motorway, you can take local crossing, leading to the town of [[Rozvadov]]. Once the other side, cross the town and about a km further will be a motorway entrance with a huge petrol station.
=== A6 Direction East ([[Prague]]) (alternate method) ===
There is green space to wait just before the "Hans-Kalb-Str." bus stop and the bus stop gives cars space to pullover. There is a traffic light right beforehand so cars will be going quite slow and be able to see you. [https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/49.43229/11.13169 maps link]. Not all the traffic hear is going East as there are a couple highway interchanges to leave the city so a sign is recommended. I held a sign reading "CZ" and got a ride within half an hour to the above-mentioned service station. I have not tried the above-mentioned strategy but I believe this one is good because it is closer to the city-center and traffic volume is quite high, and I saw several Czech license plates. There is also much less walking required as you can take the 44 bus directly to that stop, or take the S-Bahn S2 or S3 to the Frankenstadion stop and walk the very short distance from there
=== A3 direction South-East ([[Regensburg]]), ([[Passau]]) and ([[Austria]]) ===
From Nürnberg Hauptbahnhof take the S-Bahn in direction of Altdorf (b Nürnberg) and get off at WEST Altorf. The ticket costs 4.70€ but you can try to get on the train for free since it takes 20 minutes to reach WEST Altdorf. For my part, i haven't seen any controllers. From there walk uphill on Fischbacher Strasse for 300 meters, turn right on Schulstrasse Strasse for 300 more meters and turn right again on Nürnberger Strasse. It's the Boulevard leading to the A3 motorway going to Regensburg, Passau near the Austrian border and Linz. Walk along the boulevard for 200 meters where you can see BMW and Mercedes centers and until you see the motorway. Walk under the motorway and right after you'll see the entrance on your left. The spot is perfect to hitchhike and you can expect to get a lift in less than 25 minutes. Also trucks have more than enough space to stop.
===A3 direction West and North-West ([[Würzburg]], [[Frankfurt am Main]] and [[Kassel]])===
There's a service station called "Aurach" on the A3 between Erlangen and Herzogenaurach.
From train station Nürnberg Hbf you can take a local train or S-Bahn to Erlangen train station, from there on take Bus 287 direction "Westfriedhof" - exit at last but one stop ("Sankt Michael" in Steudach). From there you can easily walk in 10-15 minutes to the gas petrol station (check spot on the map). ==Sleeping== If you dont find any place to crash on you can take subway to the airport, it takes like 30 minutes to get there from centre. There are few really nice spots on benches without armrests, there is also free wifi and bathroom. Nobody bothered me there during night and also there was some other sleeping people. == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
