[[Valencia]] is a major city in [[Spain]]. It's an easy city for [[hitchhiking]]. There are three main motorways to [[Barcelona]] (AP7), [[Madrid]] (A3), and through the south coast to [[Alicante]], [[Granada]], [[Sevilla]] (A7, AP7).

===North towards [[Barcelona]]===
Going into direction [[Barcelona]] is possible at a drive-up way in the north of the town. Drop out at tram (''tranvía'') station ''Universidad Politécnica''. Hitchhiker [[User:Buzz|Buzz]] waited right beside the metal university tower. There is plenty of traffic leaving town in direction north.
===South towards [[Alicante]], [[Sevilla]]===
There is a [[roundabout]] just where the motorway starts in '''Valencia'''. This is a good place where cars can stop but it is at the edge of the city. You can get rides to [[Alicante]], [[Granada]] and [[Sevilla]], either by the 'national motorway' (A7) through the center or the toll-motorway along the coast (AP7).
The roundabout is located on the street '"Ave. de Ausias March'" in the south of the city, close to the river. It is a 15-20 minute walk from the main train station, and metro stations ''Jesus'' or ''Xativa''. See [http://www.liftershalte.info/?lat=39.44588721196113&lng=-0.36842823028564453&zoom=16&trip=0&view=0 here] a map of the location of the roundabout in '''Valencia'''.

===North or South===
There is a petrol station right on the A7 close to Sagunt, where you can get on either side, depending which direction you want to go. Heading north is very easy, normally it doesn't take long to get a good lift, maybe even directly to France, heading south is more difficult. [[User:Jeensg|Jeensg]] experienced both ways to be good.
You have to take the bus or train to Sagunt and walk like 3,5 km south-south-west - Carrer de la Pau, Cami de Gausa, Calle de Lliria. You should look it up on Google Maps to not get lost the first time you go there, because it is all through very tiny roads! Watch out that you don't get on the BP petrol station on the V-23.
===Hitchhiking ferry to [[Mallorca]], [[Menorca]], [[Ibiza]]===
:''Please add information if you have experience hitchhiking a ferry there.''
