Hitching Out
North towards Kassel, Hamburg, Denmark
There is a perfect spot at the ramp Fulda-Nord. Cars can easily stop and in case of rain you can even stand under a bridge, waiting for a ride. The next Raststätte "Großenmoor Ost" comes after about 15km, in case people can only give you a short ride.
There are different ways to get there:
- Walk: it's about 5km from the train station. Folllow the "Leipziger Straße", which is a big road next to the university towards north (Lehnerz). About 1km after the university turn right on the "Steinauer Straße". You'll arrive at a village called "Götzenhof" after another 1km. Turn the 3rd street left "Ostlandstrasse" follow till the end then turn left onto "Herderweg".
- Hitchhike: You can get a ride to the ramp from a spot near the university. Follow the "Leipziger Straße" towards north (Lehnerz). After the bridge there is a ramp to the right. Most people won't head for the Autobahn but can give you a ride to the ramp.
- Bus: Bus nr.6, Stop "Petersberg-Götzenhof"
South towards Würzburg, Ulm, Austria
In case you don't mind paying 3,90€ for a bus-ticket, or you have a Semesterticket: Take Bus 42 from ZOB (near trainstation) to Station "Kalbach-Uttrichshausen Abzweig Döllbach" which brings you - in about 40min - almost directly to the service-station "Uttrichshausen", directly at the A7 direction south.
Another option is to hh from the ramp Fulda-Mitte. It's not that crowded and be prepared to wait for some time. Next bus-stop: "Petersberg-Künzell Lanneshof" Bus 23, 24 (2€). Waling distance form the trainstation: 3,5km.
