 '''Budapest''' is the capital of [[Hungary]]. It is often abbreviated as BP, which is easier to see for car drivers on a [[signs|sign]]. 

(These directions are for leaving the city centre. See [[Budapest Ferihegy international airport]] for hitching from there.  === Northwest towards [[Bratislava]], [[Vienna]] M1 {{E|60}} & Southwest towards [[Zagreb]] M7 {{E|71}}, Lake Balaton === ==== Option 1: Motorway service station M1/M7 (OMV) - '''Kelenföld''' ==== This petrol station is the most popular spot with hitchhikers in all of Budapest, many young people use it to go to Balaton.. It is at the very beginning of the motorway that splits after a few kms into motorways M1 and M7. Some cars stop here only for the McD, so positioning yourself somewhere at the exit and thumbing or holding a sign works well. Asking around at the gas station is even better, ignore the clerks telling you to thumb. There is another petrol station around 200m down the road, but it gets so little traffic that it is not worth going there. Ways to get there: # Take bus 8E from ''Keleti pályaudvar'' (Keleti train station) in the direction of Kelenföld vasútállomás M, (and change at BAH-csomópont for bus 139), or take bus 139 from ''Széll Kálmán tér'' in the direction of Gazdagréti tér, and get off at ''Nagyszeben út'' (not Nagyszeben tér!). Walk back 100m east in the direction the bus came from along Budaörsi út and you will see the OMV petrol station and McD on the right. # Take metro 4 from ''Keleti pályaudvar'' to the last stop ''Kelenföld vasútállomás''. Walk through the underpass and up the steps in northwest direction. Continue along the footpath till you reach the main road Budaörsi út. Cross the main road and turn left and walk west for 250m along Budaörsi út till you reach the OMV petrol station / McD. '''Personal experiences''' ''A friend and I wanted to hitchhike to Vienna from here. Upon arriving, we encountered a couple of other hitchhikers going to Balaton. We found a single seat going to Vienna within 30 mins. Upon speaking to the other hitchhikers, I found them a ride within five minutes by asking at the gas station. Another hitchhiker arrived and together we found a ride to the Austrian border within an hour. - [[User:Rebew|Rebew]] (Aug. 2021)'' ''I was able to get a ride in under an hour going to directly to Vienna. It was early morning so there wasn't that much traffic (1 car every 2-3 minutes) but seems like a good spot. I think it's worth holding out for a ride across the border if you don't want to end up in Western Hungary somewhere. I had a sign saying "Wien" but the ride was from a Hungarian. - [[User:AloysiusDente|AloysiusDente]] (March 2024)'' ==== Option 2: OMV petrol station BAH-csomópont ==== Take bus 8E, 110, 112 from ''Keleti pályaudvar'', or 139, 140, 140A from ''Széll Kálmán tér'', in direction of Kelenföld vasútállomás M and get off at ''BAH-csomópont''. Alternatively, trams 17 and 61 stop here. Also, you can walk ≈4.5km west from Keleti train station to the beginning of ''Budaörsi út''.<br/ >This place is relatively close to the center and there is a lot of traffic to the M1 and M7. It appears like this is the only option in the list that nobody has specifically spoken against.  ==== Option 3: Motorway service station M1/M7 (Agip) '''Budaörs''' ==== Take metro 4 from ''Keleti pályaudvar'' to the last stop ''Kelenföld vasútállomás''. Take bus 172 or 173 and get off at stop ''Budaörs, benzinkút'', which is right at the Agip service station. It has a lot of traffic to both motorways and can be a great place if you get a chance to talk to drivers, though the staff of the petrol station may not allow it.  ==== Option 4: Motorway service station M1 '''Biatorbagy''' ====  Take metro 4 from ''Keleti pályaudvar'' to the last stop ''Kelenföld vasútállomás''. Then take a local train to ''Biatorbagy'' (it costs about EUR 1 (HUF 370)). From the station, turn right for 20m, and then right again at the roundabout under the railway tracks along Dózsa György út for ≈350m until you reach a main road. Turn left (northwest)and follow this national road 1 for 2km to a turning on the right. Walk north along this road for ≈750m under the motorway bridge to the service station on the north side of the motorway.If you are ready to invest some time to get to the first petrol station after the motorway splits, you should do so because it is a perfect spot as essentially all the cars there are going towards Vienna/Bratislava. ==== Option 5: Various spots near the city centre ====

=== West towards [[Bratislava]], [[Vienna]]Starting from inside the city (between Moszkva tér and Kelenföld) is a possibility worth trying, [[Zagreb]] especially because there are some good spots that are quite popular among local hitchhikers. Pros are that you don't need to spend any money on transport; cons are that there is a lot of local traffic and so waiting times could be very long. (M1In real nobody will take you, M7go out to the edge of the city) {{European Route Number|60}} {{European Route Number|75}} ===.

There are several possibilities. It is best to use a sign "M1" or "M7"=== South towards [[Szeged]], according if you want go to west or to south.[[Serbia]], [[Arad]] ([[Romania]]) (M5) {{E|75}} ===

# The best option, tried several times. This gas station is at the very beginning of the highway that few kms later splits into highways M1 and M7. Many cars stop here also because of the McD's (thumbing at the exit works well, as many cars go only to McD's and do not tank). To get there take bus no. 8 (starts at Keleti railway station and stops e.g. at Blaha Lujza tér, Astoria M, Uránia) or from Buda side bus 139 (starting at Széll Kálmán tér) and get off at Nagyszeben út (not Nagyszeben tér!). From there you should see the OMV and/or McDonald's sign, it's 100m away. Alternatively, if you find yourself at the Budapest-Kelenföld train station (Kelenföld vasútállomás), the gas station is ~8mins of walk from there. At the train station, walk through the underpass and then follow in that direction until you reach the big busy road Budaörsi út. It's the beginning of the highway, you should see the OMV sign. [Edit by fidradikoj: This spot works great but info about how to reach it by bus is misleading. The correct bus to take is 139 (towards Gazdagréti tér), if you want to get there from Keleti then hop onto bus no. 8, and change to 139 at BAH-csomópont. I didn't tried it out, I went for metro ride to Kelenföld and walked.]#When heading west (M7 to [[Balaton]] or M1 to [[Austria]] and [[Slovakia]]), you should take bus 272 from ''Kosztolányi Dezső tér'' or ''Sasadi út'' and get off at the stop ''Budaörs, benzinkút''. It stops right in the Agip service station with a lot of traffic to both motorways. The journey takes 20 minutes. It can be a great place if you get a chance to talk to drivers, though the staff of the petrol station may not allow it. Note==== Option 1: This is a bad spot, even though it looks perfect - it's next to the highway, but most cars come there from the small local road and are driving only in the vicinity. Went from there 4 times, waiting time from 1h to 3.5h.#Starting from inside the city (between Moszkva tér and Kelenföld) is a possibility worth trying, especially because there are some good spots that are quite popular among local hitchhikers.# There is another OMV petrol station which is even closer to the city center. It is situated at the beginning of the street ''Budaörsi Gyáli út''. You can reach it easily by walking across the big white suspension bridge, from Pest towards the Citadel, or by taking tram 61 from the square ''Moszkva tér''. Coming from the Pest side you could also take bus 112. There is a lot of traffic to the M1 and M7.====

=== South towards [[Szeged]]Take tram 4 or 6 to ''Boráros tér'', [[Serbia]]then take bus number 54 or 55 to the stop ''Gyáli út''. Walk straight for 75 m and then turn left on the street ''Gyáli út''. After about 150 m there is a curve in the road, [[Arad]] turn right there and walk to the motorway ([[Romania]]it's not yet a motorway officially, so you can hitchhike there) (M5) {{European Route Number|75}} ===. There is no road or pavement leading there, but it's easy to cross. You will see a half complete ramp on your right going on the motorway. It's basicaly a 100 meters long lane with no traffic on it, it's ideal for cars to stop, and you are also visible from a long distance. As of January 2017, there is some construction which leaves no space for stopping except on the exit lane of the petrol station nearby. The spot still worked quite well

#Take tram 4 or 6 to ''Boráros tér'', then take bus 54 or 55 to the stop ''Radnó utca''. There is a petrol station on the other side of the noise barrier wall. You could also thumb at the bus stop on the bus-only lane. If you want to go any further, option 3 is about 800 meters down the road. ''I got a ride to a rest station near Kecskemét within 30 minutes. My driver told me that thumbing at the bus station would've been a better idea. Kecskemét was good to hitchhike, but the tourists are annoying. This is also a perfect route to go to Kosovo, as 90% of drivers will be going there. - Rebew (30/07/2021)'' ==== Option 3: Start of M5 motorway ==== Take the metro to ''Határ út''. Then take bus [http://www.bkv.hu/busz/84e.html #84E], [http://www.bkv.hu/busz/89e.html #89E] or [http://www.bkv.hu/busz/294e.html #294E] to the stop ''Naszód utca (Használtcikk piac)''. You Here you can start to hitch (you should see a Citroen car lot on the other side of the road. Here you can start to hitch. A sign "Szeged" is useful. If you take bus 84E, you can continue straight onto the motorway to a OMV petrol station that you can hitch from.(This information is unconfirmed; maybe this is the OMV in option 2.) ==== Option 4: Motorway service station M5 Inárcs ==== #Take tram 4 or 6 the metro 3 to ''Boráros térNépliget'', then take . Take bus 54 or 55 [http://www.volanbusz.hu/en/timetable/lines/line/?menetrend=2204 Volánbusz 608] to the stop ''Radnó utcaInárcsi elág (M5-ös út)''. There is a petrol station on After approximately 30km, it will leave the motorway and go to Inárcs. Remember the other side of way and get off the noise barrier wall. You could also thumb bus at the bus first stop on (shortly past where the town starts) and walk back to the OMV petrol station where the bus-only lane. Don't go any further, this road will change into a left the motorway in few hundred meters.#Take tram 4 or 6 to ''Boráros tér''care, then take bus number 54 or 55 to the stop ''Gyáli út''. Walk straight for 75 m because there is no sidewalk and then turn left on the street ''Gyáli út''cars/trucks can be quite fast. After about 150 m there It is a curve in the road, turn right first big petrol station on M5 after Budapest [http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/47.2750/19.3289] and there will be cars and walk trucks to all the motorway (it's not yet a motorway officially, so you can hitchhike there). There is no road or pavement leading there, but it's easy to crosssoutherly destinations - just ask around. You will see a half complete ramp on your right going on the motorway. It's basicaly a 100 meters long lane with no traffic on it, it's ideal can look for cars foreign plates if you want to stop, and you are also visible from a long distanceleave the country.

To get out of Budapest, get to the public transportation hub ''Móricz Zsigmond körtér''. You can take Take tram 61 from near the train station ''Déli Pályaudvar'', or tram 6 from ''Blaha Lujza tér.'' , or ''Ferenc krt''. You can also take bus 7 from ''Ferenciek tere''. Once you are at , to ''Móricz Zsigmond körtér''. From here, cross the street, and walk further on for about 20 m and get on 20m. Take bus 33 or 33A. After approximately 27 minutes, you’ll see a big shopping mall called Campona on your left. Get and get off at the next stop, ''Budatétényi Sorompó''(the stop after the big shopping mall Campona on your left). From the bus stop, turn back and walk in the way direction the bus just camefrom. Cross the street at the first crossing to your right(Növény ut. There’s no street sign, so no name). That street has a railway overpass that crosses over it. Walk under the overpass and in a couple of minutes you'll arrive at a busy road. This is road #6 that goes south to Pécs. Turn left on that road and start hitching before the traffic light near the bus stop. There is enough room for cars to pull over there.

For food, bathroom, and buses, get dropped of at the Tesco in Pécs. There's a bus station there where cars can stop.  

#==== Option 1: Junction & Petrol station on M3 bevezető ==== Take trolleybus [http://www.bkvbkk.hu/trolleybusen/timetables/#74.html #74] from the centre ''Károly körút (Astoria M)'' near the Astoria metro station .

#Take metro line 3 to the end of the line where you will find a bus station. Take the airport bus, it will stop at terminal ==== Option 1, stay on the bus until the second to last stop before the airport. You will notice that the city ends quite abruptly. Prior to this you will see a : Agip petrol station, this is the last petrol station for at least 10–15 km. From the second to last bus stop you will have to walk back to this station. There is no good place to hitch after this point for around 10–15 km as the on national road is motorway. Later on there are more hitching opportunities and it's easy to get dropped off somewhere useful. #Take a regional train from the train station ''Nyugati Pályaudvar'' to the station ''Üllő'' (it costs about HUF 550 and takes 30 minutes). You can walk through the town to a big roundabout where there is a MOL petrol station.4 ====

Follow it for about 200 meters until you get walk ≈400m to the highway and then just stand entrance sliiproad over the motorway bridge. Stand on the highway motorway hitchhiking instead of the onramp sliproad as there's a a lot of space to pull over and people don't really drive to too fast at that stretch of the road.  ==== Option 2: Motorway service station (Shell) ==== Take a train from ''Nyugati Pályaudvar'' to "Dunakeszi Gyártelep‎" (HUF 150/300) and walk 3.5 km to the petrol station on the E77 (Hungarians call it Road Number Two). The walk is 40+ minutes but its pretty straightforward - check this [http://goo.gl/maps/bCKPV map]. From Pipa st. you can see the sign of the petrol station in the distance, and it will help you to navigate.

AlternativelyThe motorway only has two lanes and cars are going pretty slow, you can take train from Nyugati to "Dunakeszi Gyártelep‎" (150/300 HUF) and walk 3.5 km so it's not a problem to the Gas Station on the E77 (Hungarians call cross it Road Number Two). The walk is 40+ minutes but Once you get there its pretty great spot to catch a long drive! You can be picky, so best wait for someone going straight-forward - check this map: http://goo.gl/maps/bCKPV From Pipa st. to Poland because once you can see get to the sign of Slovak border, the petrol station in the distance, road is getting bad and it will help you to navigatethis is your best shot.

The highway only has two lanes, and cars are going pretty slow, so itIf you's not a problem re heading to cross it. Once [[Poland]], you get there its great spot to catch 'd most likely be better off finding a long drive! You can be picky, so best wait for someone going straight direct lift to Poland because once you get from the Hungarian- Slovak border rather than getting short lifts through Slovakia. Trucks go until the road is getting bad Chyzne border crossing between Slovakia and this is your best shotPoland, where it's easy to get a lift to Krakow or further to Warsaw.

Budapest has an extensive public transportation system consisting of a metro, buses and trams. A single ticket is about 1.15 € (a set of 10 tickets is about EUR 9.90 €). After you buy your ticket, you have to validate it. There are red machines on buses and trams that punch a hole in a different place on your ticket each day, which is how they determine if you validated your ticket that day (or at least not the day before...).  Inspections on buses and trams are rare except for the most popular lines (e.g. buses 7, 7E, 173 and 173E and trams 2 (very frequent), 4 and 6). Rush hours are usually safe when the trams/buses are too crowded for the inspectors to walk through the vehicles. If you want to be safe, hang around the machine and if you see an inspector coming, punch your ticket immediately. You can usually also get off the carriage when you see inspectors getting on as usually at least some of them will wear uniforms.

Inspections on buses and trams are rare except for Be careful: the most popular lines (e.g. buses 7system has changed, 7E, 173 and 173E and trams 4, 5 and 6). Rush hours are usually safe when the trams/buses controllers are too crowded for often escorted with a public area inspector who has the inspectors right to walk through the vehicles. If stop you want to be safe, hang around the machine and if you see an inspector coming, punch demand for your ticket immediatelyID cards.'

In the metro there are inspectors posted at the entrance to the platforms during all operational hours who will demand to see your ticket. Most of the time they check those who are entering and don't bother with people who are leaving the platform (Keleti railway station is one notable exception), so if you see no conductors at the entrance then you are fine. Either you take your chance that there will be no checking at the exit, or take the bus/tram, you can get pretty much everywhere without the metro. Oftentimes you can also just walk past these inspectors at the entrance or flash them a used ticket without stopping. Be careful changing lines at Deák Ferenc tér, usually there are controllers on stations of Line 2 and 3.

If you get caught without a valid ticket, the official fine on the spot is HUF 80008,000, which is about EUR 27 €. Do not let yourself be fooled with another amount, it is HUF 80008,000, and the received paper is valid for traveling travelling that day. But if you are cool enough you can get away without paying at all. On the trams and buses the inspectors legally aren't allowed to touch you. Avoid speaking English or German to the controllers. Instead, pick the most obscure language you know and keep them busy until the next stop. When the doors open, simply exit the tram and walk away. Never give the controllers your ID or passport. Maybe try searching for it or your ticket until the next stop, then get off the tram/bus then. Some of the controllers will try to take you to a cash machine if you say you have no money. Same system applies - simply walk away from the controller. I've also heard of people stalling the controller for so long that the controller gets bored and walks away.

At around 20:30 or later, the ticket inspectors that stand at the entrance to the escalators metro go home, meaning you can get on the metro for free. Be aware also that if they have controls while you exit the station, they announce it as you get off the train and again every 2 minutes or so ("Please have your tickets ready for inspection as you leave the station.") If this happens, simply get back on the next train and get off a stop before or after your chosen stop. Do not try and run past any inspectors if they have a control -- they are notoriously aggressive and will have no problem chasing you.

On the trams and buses green line there are security guards stationed on the inspectors legally arenplatforms, but don't worry, they won't allowed to touch youcheck your tickets. They're just a security precaution. Avoid speaking English The same thing applies on tram 4 or German 6 at night (they run 24 hours). They will stand at some entrances to the controllers. Instead, pick the most obscure language you know tram and keep them busy until check peoples' tickets as they enter the next stoptram (They'll be wearing either a yellow vest or a green armband. When the doors open) Choose a different entrance and you'll be fine, simply exit because the tram controllers stand at one door and walk away. Never give the controllers your ID or passport. Maybe try searching for it until the next stop, then get off don't move through the tram/bus then.

If you want to sleep outside in summer, you can do so anywhere in Buda hills. Other possibilities These places are the two big parksabandoned after dark, Margitsziget (47.528694far from people,19.047618) and Városliget (47.513566,19.085126). Margitsziget is an island in the Danube and it's a popular place to walk and escape from the busy city in the nice weather. Városliget is about the same. In both places you could find hidden places where nobody would bother you at night. Although there are sometimes used by homeless people still awake at nights, especially young ones, but they won't harm you. Homeless people are harmless. In case the wheather weather outside is not very warm nor welcoming, the mall Duna Plaza, in the northern part of the city XIII district, metro stop Gyongyosi utza offer great opportunities to find a shelter and not being discovered by security guards. In a cold night of november ('13) [[User: Fedecicco| Fede]] I found a perfect spot to lay down on his mat and sleep, behind the high bar of a closed (but open..) pub on the 2nd floor, next to the restaurants, emergency exit stairs on the back, at the uppest highest floors are also a good option. Toilets are closed at night and security go around to check when they close the building around 2 am02:00. Another safe option for the winter time would be the '''airport''' - unfortunately you can’t blackride the bus that goes there since the driver checks everyone, but the combined ticket for the Metro and the bus is 530 HUF (~1,15€). If you buy the ticket from the driver instad of the vending machine, it’s 600 HUF. The staff doesn’t care about the people sleeping there and no one checks if you have a flight ticket. Might also be a good option if you’re planning on hitchhiking from there in the morning.

At Örs vezér tere, there's an IKEA with a great food court. Just take a left after you come up the stairs to avoid all the showrooms unless you enjoy playing there to raise your appetite :-)  On the top floor of the central market at Fovam ter, there are many food stalls, popular among tourists, most of whom are ignorant fuckers who order what they want but not what they need, i.e. A LOT of leftovers on the table. There are public tables where these fuckers eat and they are not frequently cleaned by workers, thus easy opportunity for table diving. Please do this, even just once or twice. I have seen big sandwiches and baked potatoes and such being left after a single bite. We should make wasting food a crime.  == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
