Hitchhiking the route [[Berlin]] - [[Amsterdam]] (or vice versa) seems to be very popular among hitchhikers. In theory, the route of '''656 km''' (according to [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=de&geocode=&q=from:Berlin+to:Amsterdam&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=31.922255,55.371094&ie=UTF8&z=6 google maps]) can be done in 6 hours and 12 minutes by car. With hitchhiking, it's also possible to do this route within 7-9 hours, so it's an easy day trip. This if you're lucky, not hitchhiking on a holiday or being in one of the many traffic jams between [[Braunschweig]] and [[Hannover]]. Anyway, then you could try [[Traffic Jam Hitchhiking]].
===From Amsterdam===
From [[Amsterdam]] you will follow the [[A1_(Netherlands)|A1]] towards [[Amersfoort]], [[Hengelo]] and [[Germany]]. Your best chance is to start at the official [[Lifterplaats]] near the [[Amstel-Station]], or at the Petrol-station 50 meters further that road. After you crossed the border near [[Hengelo]] it changes into the [[A30_(Germany) A30]], you will follow that road until you'll hit [[Berlin]]
