Hitchhiking Out
South towards Dundee, Edinburgh or Glasgow
Work your way south of the river to Kincorth (a district about 1hr walk SW from the train station). Walk onto the A90 (Stonehaven Road) Just South of where Nigg Road meets the A90 is a petrol station from which many people are heading south. (sorry, this is a rubbish description, check google maps, youll find it easier) from experience thumbing is not very effective, be willing to approach people as they fill up their cars.

Accommodation and Sleep
There are always ample Couchsurfers in Aberdeen, we also have an SOS Couchsurf Group if you get stuck. There are no hostels in Aberdeen and hotels tend to be expensive, however if you do wish to stay in a hotel, the Railway Hotel and the Jury's Inn are popular hotels immediately outside the train station.
