=== West towards [[Roskilde]], [[Fyn]] or [[Jylland]] ===
There are several ways of getting out of {{FULLPAGENAMEE}}. Just make sure you do not get stuck at Køge. If you do get stuck at KogeKøge, your best bet is the Tesla Supercharger Station behind the gas station, or at the top of the on ramp immediately east of the last roundabout. If heading out of Denmark this way is not the quickest as most trucks will be heading south, and there aren't a lot of service stations before [[Hamburg]]! Heading west you have the following options:
==== Option 1: ====
==== Option 2: ====
Take the S-train or walk to ''Dybbølsbro station''. Walk towards the ''Fisketorvet'' mall, and just before there will be an on ramp to the highway. This is another one of the 4 official hitchhiking stops ("Blafferstoppested") in Copenhagen.
 
==== Option 3: ====
Catch a regional train or the metro M1 and get off at ''Ørestad'' station. Walk across the parking area of Field's and you'll find the first on-ramp. Be aware that there are two on-ramps joining each other when heading west - make sure to be on the most busy one.
 
==== Great spot for dumpster diving on the way ====
If you get stuck in the area or just get hungry, then at this spot - E20, highway exit 59, Fredericia S (First highway exit on Jutland). You can find two supermarkets ALDI and REMA 1000, where to dumpster dive in + a Statoil, where to wash everything. And small forest/bushes, where to stay for the night.
=== South towards [[Rødby]], [[Germany]] ===
The quickest way to get to mainland Europe Use one of the before mentioned options for going west. There is to a big petrol station called ''Karlslunde V'' before the motorway splits towards west and south. If you get a driver going west, you can jump off here, and find a car going towards ''Rødby''. Have in mind that most people are going west. Taking the ferry at the port of Rødby, which sails to [[Puttgarden]] in [[Germany]]is the quickest way to get to mainland Europe. In case you get a ride in a car, the price of the ferry remains the same for a car with up to 4 people, so you don't have to worry about any extra payments that the driver may have to make because of you.It is preferable to find a car going with the ferry to Germany before reaching ''Rødby'', as the ferry operator (Scandlines) sometimes will tell you to go away, even though it's before the check in.
Most trucks going anywhere in Europe (including [[Great Britain]]) will go this way.
==== Option 1: Great spot for dumpster diving on the way ====Catch S-tog E (sometimes its A depending on construction/late night trains) towards Køge and If you get off at ''Karlslunde'' station. Walk platform the opposite direction than the train goes and take stairs down. Under the bridge take right, and then right again on a roundabout. Ignore signs saying that motorway is stuck in the opposite direction - going this road you will end up in a bad place. Taking Karlslunde Strandvej walk for about 1.5km. On the second roundabout take right onto Karlslunde Mosevej, no clear sign to look for but there are two small restaurants here (Thai/Pizza), and Aldi. Walk another 1.5km to the motorway. If you are hitching south area or west, you need to be on the right side of the road, so cross under the motorway tunnel/bridge and turn left on the newly paved road. You will come up to the motorway within a minute. This is the last big petrol station before Germany. An alternative option to just get here with less walking is to go to Folehaven (See option 3) and hitch a short ride to Karlslunde petrol station. Make sure though that your driver goes the right direction. Katia's had best intentions to bring her to the highway petrol station but both ended up in Roskild as there was nothing on the way. There used to be an excellent bakery dumpster along the Mosevej wherehungry, but as of December 2013 it's locked. The bakery is run by kind people, however, ask for leftover bread and you'll surely be given something. There is a great dumpster right then at Karlslunde station, and the Aldi's dumpster was open as well and full of goodies. (Also checked by nikkou in Jul 2016, he found 5 liters of good red wine along with food for a few days) The train from the main station to Karlslunde takes you about 30 minutes, and it should take another 40 minutes to walk to the service station. Be aware that there are not many street signs guiding your way. The train ticket costs 63 Kroner, but it's easy to blackride (see below).  Be aware the if you go wrong way you are in trouble. The highway is four lane in this place and it's almost impossible to get a ride. There is a map of the area in the train station. Update 22/10/2017: there is a bit more than 3km walking from Karslunde station. The spot is quite good even if many people go West. We were two people and we wait 1h before getting a ride until the next petrol station (which is after the junction so almost everybody will bring you to Rodby). ==== Option 2: ====Take the S-tog E towards Køge and hop off at Ølby.  After getting out of the train at Ølby stationE20, get out on the right hand side of the station, in the direction of train, and move out towards motorway. You will, when you highway exit the station59, find restaurants Fredericia S (Little Italy) and right before that there is a right turn which goes into a main road on which you turn right again, come under the bridge of the train, and then hit the motorway where you have to cross the road and walk towards the '''left'''. It is illegal to walk by the side of the road, but it is possible. Obviously, walk on the left side so you're facing traffic. After 1 km of walk the road ramps up on a roundabout, which if you cross First highway exit on foot, before this road meets the E20/E40 motorway in direction of [[Rødby|Rødby(havn)]] (ferry point of South DenmarkJutland) there is another roundabout and at least 2 petrol stations. One of them has a Burger King You can find two supermarkets ALDI and right outside the exit of itREMA 1000, is a good point where to stand with a placard for seeking a ride.  Here at this T-junction trucks and cars coming from both petrol stations pass by and if you are dressed nice and in a youngish manner you might get picked up dumpster dive in less than 30 minutes. It is important to remember that you are trying to go to Rødby. Look where the cars that pass you are actually going to improve your location if needed. A certain hitchhiker was at the aforementioned Burger King exit for at least an hour and noticed that most people who went from there (at least at that time) weren't going on the way to Rødby. So this hitchhiker moved to the actual onramp of the highway where traffic was certain to go on the intended way --and cars were coming from more directions-- and he was picked up quite shortly. ==== Option 3: ====Catch either S-tog A, E or F and get off at Ny Ellebjerg station. Walk through the little alley on the south side of the station called 'Pylestikket'. Turn right on the main road and after a few hundred metres you'll reach the road Folehaven. There you'll see a few traffic lights to slow down the cars. Cross the road and there's and plenty of space for cars to pull over. If you don't have any luck along the road keep walking + a few hundred metres and you'll see the petrol station mentioned before close to the beginning of motorway 21Statoil, or try one of the many busstops.  Some km later there is a big petrol station where you can look for foreign cars. ==== Option 4: ==== Go to Tårnby Stwash everything. train stationAnd small forest/bus stop. It is located near the airport almost 7 kilometers from city centre. Buses: 34, 36, 350S. Trains: Re (from central station). There is a good place for hitch on ramp to E20 road, because one lane is out of trafficbushes, where cars can safely stop for you.  I used this place recently, because I didnt want to pay stay for public transport. You can do the same enjoying walk through the city. Grocery market next to train station is an advantage alsonight.
