If you hate walking try the spot at the roundabout called Emmaplein, next to the Boreel shopping centre. Most traffic from here goes in the direction of Twello and Apeldoorn, so you'll probably have to get out at the intersection of the N 344 and N 790 (see option 2), but then you've saved yourself the walk!
