=== Towards [[Portugal]] ===
There is a service station outside the city, just before the Portuguese border. This is a great place to get a ride practically anywhere (5 minute wait for Lisbon in 2016, but many cars headed to Madrid, southern Spain, etc.). To get there, first get to the Avenida de Elvas. You can walk there from the city centre, take Bus Line #9, or even hitch with any car heading towards the "University Campus"/"Avenida de Elvas". de Elvas is a series of roundabouts, so cars go fairly slowly and it will be easy to get someone who can drop you at the service station.
'''Pro tip''': do ''not'' go the service station across the border, inside Portugal. Even though it might be 1 km closer to your destination, gas prices are more expensive and way more people stop on the Spain side (or even drive over from Portugal) before heading to Lisbon.

=== Towards Madrid ===
Take bus line #1 heading ''San Roque'' and ride all the way to the last stop, from there walk about 500 meters along the road until you find a petrol station next to which there is a restaurant called ''Venta don José''. From there you should get easy rides onto the highway E-90.
