Israel's two largest vertical highways, routes 40 and 90, pass throughout the region. [[Israel's Route 40]] cuts through the Negev in its center, starting from the Beduin city of [[Rahat]], going through Beer-Sheva and Mitzpe, and ending in Eilat. [[Israel's route 90]], perhaps the most famous of the roads in the area, as it is a straight highway that starts on Israel's border with [[Lebanon]], passing through the [[West Bank]] of the Jordan river, and reaches the Negev in the Dead Sea before continuing through various ecological Kibutzs until it ends up in Eilat.
While both of these roads are considered national highways, their hitchhiking spots are very easily reached by public transportation or even on foot. It is most efficient to try and hitchhike from bus stops and [[Trempiyada|Trempiyadas]] along the way, and there are also gas stations that can function as a hitchhiking spot and also double as a place to take cover from the heat.
