# Take the trolleybus [[http://www.bkv.hu/english/troli/74vissza.html #74]] from the centre (Astoria). you can go till the end but it's better to get of one before. from there, you should hear the noise of the M3 motorway, just follow it, walk back a bit (opposite direction of the cars), there'll be an entrance and also a [[petrol station]]. The entrance can work fine, however you can ask drivers at the station, not the best place, but it works.
# In August 2009 in Astoria someone found only bus [http://www.bkv.hu/english/busz/173evissza.html #173E] and it goes same direction [as suggested trolleybus before]. Exit at the last stop (Újpalota, Nyírpalota út) and walk a big street on your left for about 10 minutes, check the signs and exit to [[motorway]]. It's not the best hitchhike spot but it works after a while.
# Via petrol station; (it's an effective way and were taken several times by hitchhikers). You have to take the Metro 2 to the last station called Örs Vezér tér, then u have to cross the big square and go to the HÉV (its it's the hungarian Hungarian S-bahn, RER etc.), this is the last station of it and u have to get on the one which goes to Gödöllő and u have to get out in Mogyoród. (normally one should buy special ticket as it is out of Budapest, but the control is rare and with a normal ticket they should let u in peace). There is an entrance to the highway motorway by 5 minutes walk, where cars can really easily stop but in two kilometers there is the gastation petrol station which u can [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=erd%C5%91+utca&daddr=47.5983633,19.279323+to:Ismeretlen+%C3%BAt&hl=hu&geocode=FQRG1gIdZBAmAQ%3BFRtL1gId2y0mASmfVnHoA89BRzGQaBrrKMQAEw%3BFURo1gId3W8mAQ&mra=dme&mrcr=0&mrsp=2&sz=16&via=1&sll=47.604051,19.290426&sspn=0.007523,0.01929&ie=UTF8&ll=47.600897,19.283752&spn=0.015047,0.038581&t=h&z=15 reach] in 30 minutes by walk.
=== E60 East towards [[Oradea]], [[Cluj-Napoca]] ===
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 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 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 10-15km as the road is motorway. Later on there are more hitching opportunities and its easy to get dropped off somewhere useful. Alternatively outside terminal 1 of the airport is as good as most roadside locations however its probable that a only a proportion of traffic is travelling traveling right out of the city.
You can also get the train from Nyugati Pályaudvar for 550 huf to Üllő about 30 minutes by train, you walk through the town to a big round a bout where there is a mol petrol station. easy to get rides towards Szolnok/Oradea/Cluj.
