The Dutch highway motorway '''A1''' (''[[Netherlands|Dutch]]: Rijksweg'') begins in the east of [[Amsterdam]] at the junction ''Watergraafsmeer'' and ends continues into the [[Germany|German]] highway motorway [[A30 (Germany)|A30]] in the east of the country. The '''A1''' is also known as the [[E231]], ''between [[Amsterdam]] and [[Amersfoort]] (east of the junction with the [[A28 (Netherlands)|A28/E232]])'' and as the [[E30]] eastward until and into [[Germany]] (which it crosses entirely).
Along the way it passes the cities of [[Amersfoort]], [[Apeldoorn]], [[Deventer]], [[Hengelo]], [[Oldenzaal]] and [[Enschede]].

|-
| || (13) {{ramp}} [[Amersfoort]]-Noord || {{good}} For hitchhiking towards [[Amsterdam]], there's some space on the hard shoulder, so possible to hitchhike. Cars drive along quite fast, so take care.
|-
| || {{junction}} Knooppunt Hoevelaken {{Anl|28}} || |
|-
| Towards East no hard-shoulder, but some green to stand on. Traffic low, should be okay. || (14) {{ramp}} Hoevelaken || |
|-
| || || {{gas}} service station [[De Middelaar]] {{very good}} It might look small, but it's great for rides into Amsterdam!
|-
| {{gas}} service station [[Palmpol]] || || |
|-
| No hard shoulder in direction east, but it's ok to stand on the side of the road, cars can stop there. Just be extremely careful. || (15) {{ramp}} Barneveld {{Anl|30}} || |

| {{bad}} (''north/eastbound'') Try to avoid it. || (20) {{ramp}} [[Apeldoorn]]-Zuid<br>Huge shoulders, ample place for drivers to stop............. If it only didn't get very little traffic because due to it's location this ramp only serves an industrial estate, a village and one or two housing estates. The majority of cars coming from Apeldoorn will take 21 when driving east or 19 when driving west. || {{good}} (''south/westbound'') Towards [[Arnhem]] or Barneveld this ramp is doable.

|-
| {{average}} In direction Hengelo this ramp is quite ok, nevertheless no hard shoulder (only up when you're nearly on the motorway), but very few traffic so standing along the road is possible. || (28) {{ramp}} Rijssen || |
|-
| || {{junction}} Knooppunt Azelo {{Anl|35}} || |
|-
| {{senseless}} No connection towards the A1 towards Germany from here, only to the A35 direction [[Enschede]] || (29) {{ramp}} [[Borne]]-West || {{Good}} Small ramp between two junctions, nevertheless good hard shoulder and enough space for cars to stop. Also more traffic than one would expect.
|-
| || {{junction}} Knooppunt Buren {{Anl|35}} || |
|-
| {{good}} Nice hard shoulder and more than enough traffic. All you need from here is a short ride to Het Lonnekermeer. Sometimes getting a ride might take longer because people expect you want a long ride being so close to the border with Germany. || (30) {{ramp}} [[Hengelo]] || {{good}} Just next to traffic lights. Wide hard shoulder.
|-
| {{average}} Hitching towards [[Germany]] isn't that good, most cars only go further to [[Oldenzaal]], but take your chance if you get a lift to ''Oldenzaal-Zuid''! Note that Het Lonnekermeer can be reached on foot from here. || (31) {{ramp}} [[Hengelo]]-Noord || {{good}} Quite good spot for hitchhiking westwards, traffic lights will slow down cars for you.
|-
| {{gas}} service station [[Het Lonnekermeer]] {{Very Good}} To the east '''Last''' petrol station before [[Germany]] and for the next 73km! Best chance for you to get cars towards [[Germany]] or even [[Poland]] (trucks!). || || {{gas}} service station [[Veelsveld]] {{Very Good}}
|-
| || (32) {{ramp}} [[Oldenzaal]] || |
|-
| {{Very Good}} ''The'' ramp for you if you come from [[Enschede]]! Easy to get cars towards [[Germany]], average waiting time 7 minutes!<br>[[File:Oldenzaal_ramp.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Ramp in [[Oldenzaal]]-Zuid, on the last meters of the '''A1''']] || (33) {{ramp}} [[Oldenzaal]]-Zuid || {{Very Good}} In direction west also a busy ramp for traffic towards the whole country.
|-
| {{bad}} Don't try it here, better walk down to Bentheimerwald services, slightly over a kilometre down the road. Place is well frequented by cops, keep that in mind when you wish to take a shortcut along the motorway. More in the section [[De Lutte]] || (34) {{ramp}} [[De Lutte]] || |
