== Hitching Out ==<map lat='50.836082778824434' lng='4.352989196777344Brussels' zoom='12' view='3' float='right'/> is the capital of [[Belgium]]. Brussels is a very international city.

== Hitching in == If you do not encounter a driver that goes inside the city, but takes the Northern Ring around the city, you can ask them to pull off the motorway (E40) at Exit #7a/7b ''(Chaussee Romaine/Parc des Expositions/Tentoonstellingspark)'' (basically, the Atomium and Heysel Stadium area) or at Exit #8 ''(Wemmel)''. At both exits drivers can immediately rejoin the motorway at the sliproad opposite the exit. === East === If you do not encounter a driver that goes inside the city, but instead takes the northern ring road around the city, you can ask them to pull off the motorway (E19) at junction 7a/7b ''(Chaussee Romaine/Parc des Expositions/Tentoonstellingspark)'' (basically, the Atomium and Heysel Stadium area) or at junction 8 ''(Wemmel)''. At both exits, drivers can immediately rejoin the motorway from the slip road opposite the exit. From the exits, you simply have to walk towards the Expo park to take tram 23, 81, or 94; or Metro 6 from stations ''Koning Boudewijn'' or ''Heysel''. Alternatively, you might also ask to be left at the service station on the E40 in Leuven, before the ring road around Brussels, with the idea of catching a local ride that would get you into town. This might be necessary if your driver goes up along the E19 to Antwerp, as there won't be any places for him to drop you off. === Northwest === If you arrive from the northwest (Gent), you can ask to be dropped at the Services in Groot-Bijgaarden which is 2.5km before the ring of Brussels along the E40 from where you can walk to Zellik and catch bus 213 or 214 to the centre, or try to hitch a ride into town. If your ride only takes the western ring road (E19), (from Gent or the south), you can ask to be dropped off at Junction 16 on the E19, from where it is walking distance to the metro 1b stations ''Eddy Merckx'' or ''Ceria''. === South === If you coming in from the south and the driver is heading to the east of Brussels, ask to be dropped off at Delta. If the driver is heading to the west of Brussels, ask to be dropped off at E19 junction at Drogenbos. It comes right after Ruisbroek service station (Total). Walk five minutes and you’ll be at the beginning of tram line 4 going to the centre. == Hitchhiking out ==  === North-West towards [[Gent]], [[Brugge]], [[England]], ([[Lille]]) {{E|40}} === ==== Option 1: Petrol stations at Baselix Shopping Centre ==== Take train S10 from ''Brussels Noord'' station to ''Berchem Ste-Agathe'' station. Head south towards the Carrefour hypermarket and go through it's car park toward the Baselix Shopping Centre and the main road Keizer Karellaan. Here you will find two petrol stations (Shell and Lukoil). Stay there as people fill up with petrol for going to e.g. Gent]or Bruges. Just ask people. 1O minutes walk Alternative way : take bus 213 or 214 from bus-stop ''Brussel Rogier'' and get off at ''Sint-Agatha-Berchem Marg.v.Oostenrijk'', and then walk 300m west until you reach the petrol stations. Or walk 5 km from Rogier metro heading west on the main road R20.  ==== Option 2: Start of E40 ==== Take tram 82 from the Gare du Midi in direction of ''Berchem'' until the stop ''Berchem Shopping''. From there turn left and walk up the Av. Charles Quint for about 200 meters and you are at the beginning of the E40 in the direction of Gent. Just hitch after the traffic lights, where there is space for a car to pull over behind you. The circulation is dense but cars can easily pull over and get back on the road quite safely. You can also reach this spot by the following the directions in Option 1 and then continue walking 400m west along the main road R20.   ==== Option 3: Motorway service station Groot Bijgaarden ==== The cheapest way: from bus-stop ''Brussel Rogier'', take De Lijn bus 213 or 214 (direction Aalst) and get off at bus-stop ''Zellik Drie Koningen''. Cross over the street and walk back 50m in the direction from where the bus came to the roundabout. Turn into the first street to the right (Kerklaan) and walk 200m. Turn left into Theodoor Coppensstraat and walk ≈650m till you come to the junction with Louis De Bondstraat. Take a left here (south) and walk 400m until you reach a road on the right (Dilbeek Noord). Walk ≈300m and you will reach the service station. This spot works extremely well, but it takes some times to get there and it's also quite expensive: 2,40€ to get to Gare du Nord (blackriding the tram is easy but metro is hard) plus 3€ for the De Lijn bus (you enter the bus right at the front so you cannot blackride). Many people also take this route to go to Lille and Paris, and there's probably more traffic on this road than on the option going towards Charleroi and Mons. === South-West towards [[Charleroi]], [[Mons (Bergen)|Mons]], [[Lille]], [[Paris]] ({{E|19}} === ==== Option 1: E19) Motorway junction Drogenbos ====On the ''Internationalelaan'' (Boulevard International) close to At the Drogenbos motorway entrancejunction, there is a lot of [http://maps.google.be/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=nl&geocode=&q=stalle+prolongee&sll=50.792373,4.316597&sspn=0.045358,0.110378&g=drogenbos&ie=UTF8&ll=50.792468,4.304082&spn=0.001329,0.003449&t=h&z=18&iwloc traffic and much space for light under the motorway bridge].

This takes about 20 minutes. Walk southeast along Paul Gilsonlaan, then follow the road round onto Grote Baan to the junction with Verlengde Stallestraat. Turn right (west) and walk ≈250m to the traffic light under the motorway. Altogether the walk is ≈500m and takes five minutes. Or take tram 4 ([http://m.stib.be/line.php?lang=fr&line=4&iti=1 STIB]) till the terminus ([http://maps.google.be/maps?q=stalle+prolongee&hl=nl&ll=50.795375,4.318566&spn=0.000895,0.001725&sll=50.792373,4.316597&sspn=0.045358,0.110378&t=h&hnear=Verlengde+Stallestraat,+Vlaams-Brabant&z=19 Stalle] ), then walk further towards the motorway along Rue Prolongée de Stalle/Verlengde Stallestraat (with some massive shops) till you reach the traffic lights underneath the motorway bridge.  You can also leave tram 4 at the stop Egide van Ophem (2 stops before terminus). Here you just need to cross the street and you'll find yourself on a DATS 24 petrol station. Depending on the time of the day (best is around evening rush hour, as people are leaving Brussels), it can be easy or very easy to get a ride to the Ruisbroek service station. Make sure to state very clearly where you could ask want to go (Ruisbroek petrol station is on the “ring”) as many people directlygo through it without knowing, for example if their destination is Waterloo.   ==== Option 2: Ruisbroek Petrol Station ==== To get theredirectly on the Ruisbroek Petrol Station (which is located on the western part of the ring), you need to take Bus #78 bus 50 (direction Lot station) from Brussels Midi Station to Ruisbroek Voetbalplein. This takes about half an hour. From here you walk straight and turn the second to the left (into Hemelstraat) and follow this till the end. Go left into Broekweg and follow your way onto the petrol station. Another option is taking the South Station in direction local train from one of Brussels''Humanite'' and get out railway stations (e.g. Centrale or Midi) to Ruisbroeck for 2,40€ (ticket at the stop ''Bollinckx''machine).Keep in mind that From there you are now in the middle of an industrial zone!can also walk (allow 30 min).

Reach the Station "Delta" in Ixelles, or bus 71 Internationalelaan/Boulevard International close to Delta''. The street surrounding the University Campus is called ''Triomflaan'' (Boulevard du Triomphe) and ''Pleinlaan'' (Boulevard de la Plaine)motorway entrance. There is also a large Texaco lot of traffic and much space for cars to stop, even a petrol station nearby, Delta is a spot where a lot of you could ask people hitchhikedirectly. To get there, especially to take bus 78 from the Brussels Zuidstation/Gare du Midi in direction of Humanité and get out at the stop Bollinckx. Attention! The bus only runs every hour.

Note that the E411 starting from there head direction South to [[Namur]], [[Luxembourg]], [[Lorraine]] in [[France]] and [[Rheinland-Pfalz]] in [[Germany]]. Many junctions, such as the southern ring near Jezus-Eik, gives the chance to reach the ==== Option 4: E19 Motorway junction 17 (towards [[Charleroi]], [[Mons (Bergen)|Mons]] and [[Paris]]Ceria/Coovi) or the E42 just north of [[Namur]]. Using a sign would ease the journey but remember that none of these junctions are hitchhiking friendly.====

=== South towards [[Waterloo]] Another option to take metro yellow line 5 (local hitchingdirection Érasme/Erasmus) ===Public transport to and get off at CERIA/COOVI. Walk Chaussée de Mons/Bergensesteenweg down south (you can ask people the site direction of [[Waterloo]] battlefield are deficient, so hitch-hiking could be a solution for those who wish to do Ikea). Some 150 meters from the metro station you will see a day excursion to that historic sitebridge. The best is to reach 'Ter Cameren Bos' Go down across the bridge, there you will see entrance (Bois de la Cambreconsisting of 3 lanes from 3 different directions) at to the border between Ixelles and Ukkel (Tram 94 - 23 - 24) and motorway in direction of Mons/Paris. 5 km further there will be a big Total petrol station called Ruisbroek, there you will easily find a spot along ride further to the Chaussee de Waterloosouth.{{infoneeded|Find the spot!}}

{{Roadworks}} ==== Option 5: The following option is unavailable due to road works Delta (21/08/2008South-East)'''====

* The first option Although Delta is mostly known as the best spot to hitch at the entrance of get to Louvain-la-Neuve then Namur and Luxembourg along the Tunnel located at the gate of the Jubelpark E411 (Parc du Cinquentenairesee below) , it can very well be suited to get on the Blijde-Inkomst laan E19 (Avenue de la Joyeuse-EntreeNivelles, Charleroi or Mons, then Paris, or even Lille) . Using a sign on the side of the 'Rondthis spot is mandatory as drivers are used to see hitchhikers going to Louvain-la-Point Schuman' Neuve (metro access 1A/1B direction Herrmann-Debroux/StokkelE411 rather than E19). There Unless your driver goes further, which is a street light and a side parking just often the case, ask to be dropped at the entrance rest area of Nivelles 30 minutes from Brussels (the tunnel, you may simply stand by one with the light with Total petrol station and a sign and the cars can immediately pull to pick you. This hitching point restaurant that is an easy start to go to [[Leuven]] or [[Liege]] or possibly reach built across the services in Leuven on the E40 or on the E314highway).

''(Note: this The spot works perfectly during business hours, but has direct access from the traffic is low exit no. 4 of metro station Delta on Sundays or during holidays; note that it is also possible to catch a line 5 (15 minutes ride in direction North [[Antwerp]] from there too but a sign is requiredthe city center)''.

* Another Alternatively, second , good option is to hitch you can ask drivers directly at the red lights petrol station Lukoil (30 minutes on average). On the [http://maps.google.be/maps?f=q&hl=nl&geocode=&q=rue+du+belliard+10+contrary,+bruxelles&sll=50.84508Texaco petrol station’s staff,4.369297&sspn=0.010351,0.026608&ie=UTF8&ll=50.844945,4.368825&spn=0.010704,0.026608&z=15&iwloc=addr Rue on boulevard du Belliard]. Its a one way street with 4 lanes and most cars enter the Tunnel at the end of the street Triomphe, that goes onto the motorway towards [[Leuven]] , [[Liege]] , [[Aachen]]. Make sure has proven to be very unfriendly to ask your driver they go onto the motorway hitchhikers once, and go towards [[Leuven]]. The first petrol station on the motorway is right after the exit to [[Leuven]]. If your driver goes to [[Leuven]] he can miss hes turn and still go threatening to call the town through the petrol station. Nearby public transportation to this second hitch spot are Metro station "Trone/Troon" , and also several bus linescops.

==== (A12) Southeast towards [[Louvain-la-Neuve]], [[Namur]], [[Luxembourg]], [[Lyon]], [[Strasbourg|Strasbourg]], [[Geneve]] {{E|411}} ====A good option is to take a train to Brussels International Airport. Here you walk out of the airport terminal, pass a Shell service station, and walk along the side road until it joins with the motorway. Cars are going relatively slow and there is plenty of room for a vehicle to pull over. A lot of these vehicles are going in the direction of Antwerp, at least. There is a big service station before Antwerp for you to be dropped at for other destinations.

Note==== Option 1: hitching further south on the Vuurkruisenlaan is a bit jeopardized as there are no places for a car to pull aside before it reaches the A12. The only possibility, as there is side parking along the road, is if there is sufficient space due to the fact that no cars are parked. Which makes it definitely a bad spot.Delta ====

==== One of the historically well-known places by local hitchhikers, 'Delta is on the way towards Louvain-La-Neuve (student town) and is situated right at the exit no. 4 of metro station Delta (E1915 minutes from the centre) ===={{infoneeded|Find , next to the Delta bus depot. To get there, take metro line 5 direction Herrmann-Debroux, or bus 71 to Delta. It is common to bump into one or two other (student) hitchhikers there.

To get to metro station Beaulieu in Ixelles, take line 5 direction Herrmann-Debroux. You will notice many cars stopping at traffic lights just before the station. This road connects with the motorway towards the South. Some hitchhiker got a lift in less than 2 minutes. There is a big service station 10 minutes down the road if needed for further lifts.  ====Option 3: Demey== Hitching in ==If Take the metro to the station Demey and find a direct entrance to the highway right next to the station. There is a pavement, so you can hitchhike safely. === South towards [[Waterloo]] N5 === Public transport to the site of Waterloo battlefield are deficient, so hitchhiking could be a solution for those who wish to do not encounter a driver day excursion to that goes inside historic site.

There is a street light and a side parking just at the Northern Ring around entrance of the citytunnel, you may simply stand by the light with a sign and the cars can ask them immediately pull over to pick you. This hitching point is an easy start to go to pull off Leuven or Liege or possibly reach the Heverlee services in Leuven on the motorway (E40) at or on the E314.  '''Option 2.''' Another good option is to hitch at the red lights on the [http://maps.google.be/maps?f=q&hl=nl&geocode=&q=rue+du+belliard+10+,+bruxelles&sll=50.84508,4.369297&sspn=0.010351,0.026608&ie=UTF8&ll=50.844945,4.368825&spn=0.010704,0.026608&z=15&iwloc=addr Rue du Belliard]. It'Exit #7as a one way street with 4 lanes and most cars enter the tunnel at the end of the street that goes onto the motorway towards Leuven, Liege and Aachen. Make sure to ask your driver if they go onto the motorway and go towards Leuven. The first petrol station on the motorway is right after the exit to Leuven. If your driver goes to Leuven he can miss his turn and still go to the town through the petrol station. Nearby public transportation to this second hitching spot are Metro station "Trone/7bTroon" and also several bus lines.  '''Option 3.' '' Get to premetro Station "Diamant". You can get there by taking the metro to Schuman (Chaussee RomaineDirection 1/Parc des Expositions5 Stockel/TentoonstellingsparkHermann-Debroux) and change then to bus 79 (direction Kraainem)or take tram no. 25 from Rogier in direction of Boondaal Station/Gare Boondael. Cross "Bld. Auguste Reyers" in eastern direction. Then walk to the spot on the small street, just after the traffic lights, that leads to the A3-motorway. There is plenty of space for cars to pull over.  '''Option 4.'' '  The best way to leave the city fast and in the right direction is going past the ring road. So, if you're ok to pay the public transport, take the [https://www.delijn.be/fr/lijnen/lijn/3/351/2 De Lijn bus 351] from the train station Brussels-North and stop at [http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=15/50.8744/4.4931 Nossegem - Centrum] (basicallyit takes 30 minutes and cost 3 euros). Walk a few metres in the direction of the bus and you reach a big crossroad where the highway is announced. Follow the sign and turn right to find a very comfortable point to hitchhike to Leuven or Liege  '''Option 5.''' Stand by the roundabout next to the parking lot entrance to the Cora supermarket, in Woluwe. From the Atomium Roodebeek metro station, walk 15min or take bus 45 to Gulledelle. === North towards [[Antwerpen|Antwerp]], [[Breda]], [[Rotterdam]], [[Utrecht]], [[Amsterdam]] A12 or {{E|19}} ===  '''Option 1.'''  Take tram 3, 19, or 23 and get off at ''De Wand'' or take tram 4 and get off at ''Esplanade'' (and then turn right). Walk along the Avenue de Meysse up to Antwerpselaan, crossing Romeinsesteenweg. By now you should see the signs for Antwerp. Keep following the signs for a couple more roads further on. This will increase your chances when you hitch on Antwerpselaan and try to catch a car that would get onto the motorway at junction 2 of the A12. De Lijn busstop "Strombeek-Bever Nieuwelaan" is good, cars are going slow and have place to stop.   '''Option 2.'''  Take metro 6 in the direction of ''Koning Boudewijn/Roi Baudoin'' and get off at ''Heysel Stadium ''. Take Keizerin Charlottelaan/Avenue Impératrice Charlotte to the right in the direction of Brussels Expo. Continue along Avenue de Miramar (so don't go to the atomium) and turn left at the end where you will see highway A12 in front of you. Take the next to the right and go under the bridge. Start hitchhiking just after the bridge at the street on your left (Antwerpselaan).  If you don't have any luck with finding a spot to stand you can try your chances at Brussels Airport. You can take bus 21 to the airport and then go to the "Départ" area. Go outside and you will see a lot of cars drive by and drop off people who are catching a plane. When you walk a bit into the direction where the cars are going to (it's one-way traffic) or you will find a good spot where you can stand and where cars can stop for you. Use a sign, because probably most cars will move into Brussels and only a few will go to Antwerpen. This road will lead to the highway and also to the petrol station that is described at the section on Brussels Airport.  '''Exit #8NATO''' The [http://maps.google.com/?q=nato,+brussels&ie=UTF8&hq=nato,&hnear=Brussels,+Belgium&ll=50.877674,4.42263&spn=0.004008,0.009645&z=17&iwloc=lyrftr:m,0x47c3dcd1ea2536c7:0xe8a6c0992aa12ff7,50.877511,4.421042 bus stop in front of the NATO] is pretty good for hitchhiking further than Antwerp, although there is more traffic at the parallel traffic lights. For hitchhiking to Holland, make a sign for the Antwerp/E19 and get off at the petrol station just before Antwerp: lots of Dutch cars / people here to ask for a ride. If someone takes you to Mechelen though, make sure they drop you of at Mechelen Noord motorway exit. Buses 12, 21 and 65 go to the Nato stop. You can get the number 65 from the Madou metro stop.  '' 'Airport'(Wemmel)'' Take an overpriced train or for a more normal price bus 12 or 21 to Brussels International Airport. At both There are many exits drivers at the airport. You can immediately rejoin find one and start hitching from where cars pay their parking-ticket. A bit further down the road towards the motorway you'll find a Shell service station. Most cars here stay around the airport, but you may have luck. A final suggestion is to keep on walking along the side-road until it joins with the motorway at . Cars go relatively slow here and there is plenty of room for a vehicle to pull over. In order to get to the airport there are different options:<br>The fast but expensive (8,5€) direct train to Brussels Airport from Bruxelles Midi, Central or Nord.<br>STIB/MIVB bus #12 or #21 leaving from Place de Luxembourg (4€), be sure to check the timetable and keep the traffic jams during rush hour in mind<br>De Lijn bus #272 or #471 leaving from Gare du Nord/Noordstation (normal ticket price around 2€)<br>Take a normal priced train to Zaventem Station and walk 2 km to the airport. When you leave the station, take the Vilvoordelaan straight till the sliproad opposite second roundabout and follow the exitroad to Brussels airport (there is a pedestrian road next to the highway).

=== East ===If you arrive from the East, you might also ask to be left at the Services along the E40 in [[Leuven]], before arriving in Brussels, with the mean of catching a local ride that would get into town.
