Hitching Out

West towards Oldenzaal (Netherlands)

If you travel by a Regionalbahn (train) towards the Netherlands, you may have to wait several hours on this station for the Intercity towards Amsterdam. From the station you need to hike about 300 meters south to get on a crossing with a bay where you may easily hitchhike to Oldenzaal or Hengelo. Although it's only some kilometers towards Oldenzaal, there are quite few cars going that direction. You might wait a bit longer after passing Gildehaus.

North towards Nordhorn, A30

At the crossing, just take the road towards the north or try it behind the train station. The street (403) directly goes towards the on ramp Nordhorn/Bad Bentheim.
