Get off at ''Pratteln'' and follow the ''Zehntenstrasse'' (parallel to the railway tracks) in the direction of the train you took, for quite a long short time. Go left at the ''Obermattstrasse''little steps, go which lead to a road underneath the tracks, then straight. Left Turn right at the ''Krummeneichstrasse''main road, that then continues into on the road ''GiebenacherstrasseHohenrainstrasse''. Follow streetsthis road for 5 minutes, keep righton the left footpath, and you will go underneath the ''Bundesstrasse'', at the other side you go then see a small commercial area. Turn left to ''Götzisbodenweg''onto this street , through the ''BahnunterführungZurlindenstrasse'' (thing going underneath railway tracks), and the service station should be visible from there. Continue the ''Götzisbodenweg'' walk down until there's you reach a little forest with a crossing in path going down. Follow the garden fence and path. Then you will be at the motorway service station '''Pratteln-Süd'''. It is open 24 hours a day.

*A helpfull cutout === North towards [[Mulhouse]], [[Strasbourg]], [[Luxembourg]], etc === Go to the Basel “Hauptbahnhof” (main train station) and take the number “50” bus, direction “Euroairport”. The second last stop ("Frachthalle") arrives at the St.Louis area which is beside the Swiss-French border. You will see that there is a police check point for cars. If you make your way to this area and stand at the side you should be able to interact with vehicles’ at a very slow speed. Look out for the police as they can be a nuisance but I had no problems. Alternatively, you can walk straight down through St. Louis, or take the bus, down to the other end of town. Eventually, you will be at a small petrol station. Not exactly the best place, but there is a round-about that leads straight to the A35. There is only a [httpsmall parking space for vehicles to stop, so not so ideal for trucks, however when I was hitchhiking there, there was heavy traffic coming from all directions and vehicles had to slow down as they turned. I only stood there for about 20-30mins. I found the atmosphere a lot nicer than around the border patrol. (On googlemaps://map47.search59372,7.ch/?x=-26526&y=-46151&z=512 map]555225)

===North towards You can also take the bus number 50 to "Friedrich-Miescher-Strasse" and walk down the hill.

A bigger rest area is just on the border to Germany! There it is very easy to find rides. You have to take the Regional express train to "Weil am Rhein".Then walk back in the opposite direction the train was driving. You see a bridge leading over the railway lines. Cross the bridge and walk straight ahead till there is a second street turning right. Just follow this road to the rest area! (You can see it soon so it’s impossible you don’t find it!) *Update (11-Aug-2014): If you want to try hitchhiking directly out of the city, walk from the trainstation Basel SBB (exit city) towards the tramstops. Once you reach the busy street (Nauenstrasse) turn to the right and follow this street. This street leads towards the highway entry, so you can start thumbing once you walked past a big bridge that goes to the right (Münchensteinerstrasse). After that turn, cars can stop easily on the sidewalk and can either take you to your desired direction or leave at the service station "Pratteln-Süd", where you can also cross the highway and find rides in all directions (see first paragraph). * A helpful cutout of a [http://map.search.ch/?x=-42442m&y=73842m&z=512 map]   == Sleeping == In summer it's usually no problem to camp in one of the Parks (f.e. Kannenfeldpark) or go to the nearby Forest Lange Erle. {{anarchopediaIsIn|Switzerland}}__NOTOC__ {{Template:Cities Switzerland}}
