}}__NOTOC__ '''Cologne''', or '''Köln''' in German, is a big city in [[NordrheinNorth Rhine-Westfalen]]Westphalia.
Cars number plates starting with the letter '''K''' are registered in this locality. While the following are localities in the neighbourhood of Cologne: ''(LEV - GL - SU - BM) clockwise from the North''
=== South towards [[Bonn]], [[Koblenz]], [[Frankfurt am Main]] ===
=== East North towards [[BerlinDüsseldorf]] or [[Nijmegen]] ===<map lat='50.93982519613568' lng='6.961555480957031' zoom='12' view='0' float='right' height='500' width='350'/>The first service area on is Rasthof Remscheid. You can get there by public transport (quite inconvenient though) or try one of the on ramps in the North East of cologne. I think the best one is close to KVB-station "Rixdorfer Straße".
For direction Krefeld/Nijmegen riding the S-bahn to Worringen and try it from there, average waiting time around 30-60 minutes. === North West towards [[DüsseldorfAachen]], [[Maastricht]], [[Eindhoven]] or and [[DortmundBelgium]] ===Take '''Option 1''' On the motorway ring around Cologne, to the west of the city, there's the motorway service area Autobahnparkplatz Frechen Ri. AK Kerpen. You can reach it by catching a train to Frechen-Königsdorf (around 20 minutes). Turn right on the stairs at the station, walk through the tram nocar park, turn left on Augustinus Straße, walk straight for 2 minutes and then turn right on to Marienhöfer Weg. Keep walking up this path into the forest for 5 minutes. Eventually you will come to a crossroad with the service station on the left. There you can get lifts to the Netherlands, Belgium and United Kingdom from one of around 200. Trucks are going in the direction of Aachen or 13 to Maastricht, at least. '''Option 2'Nußbaumer Str.'' Go near the [[A4 (Germany)|A4]], Exit 11a Klettenberg and 11b Köln-Eifeltor. There When at the latest, walking slightly North there is an onramp. A lot extra lane that looks like an ideal place for people to stop, and slightly South of traffic goes in your direction, but it is very dangerous a big truck stop and petrol station where you can try and ask people. To reach these exits from the centre, take the tram U18 to Efferen (for drivers 11a) or to Eifelwall and then bus 138 to Güterverkehrszentrum. This option is especially interesting to know if you get trapped in Cologne while trying to stop therecross the Ruhr area. == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
