<map lat='56.14688829725393' lng='10.193939208984375' zoom='12' view='0' float='right'/> Aarhus (Danish: Århus) is the second-largest city of Denmark.
You can get very good maps of Aarhus for free at the tourist information, located on the left side next to the central train station.
Hitching Out
North towards Aalborg, Fredrikshavn
Good spot for cars going north on the E45 motorway, accessible by bus from Århus city center. Take the 25 bus to Tilst Vestervej and get off there (its the last stop). Walk back to the roundabout and turn right to walk along the viborgvej for 5 minutes. You'll come to a sliproad for cars going north on the E45 road. Walk along it and the road straightens out, so cars can see you from a long way off and have time to stop.
North West towards Viborg, Thisted and North West Jutland
Take the same bus as above, walk to the roundabout and stand by right turn (Viborgvej). It's visible and there's a handy parking space just after for cars to pull into!
South towards South Jutland and Germany
The best spot to go is definitely located near Viby Torv. Take bus #5, #15, #25, #26, #52 or #55 towards Viby Torv. Get out there, walk some meters back to the big traffic light and go to the left into the Viby Ringvej. You'll also recognize bords announcing the highway. Walk along this street for around 1 km, then the on-ramp for the highway appears. There's enough space for you to stand on, easy to catch cars in all directions.
East towards Copenhagen
There are two ways to go to Copenhagen.
- Go to the harbour of Aarhus (see map) and have a look for the ferry towards Sj. Odde. Wait in front of the terminals with a sign for Copenhagen, nearly everybody is going there.
- If you don't like ferrys you can also hitchhike via the highway. In this case use the hitchhiking spot mentioned above.
