Hitching Out

Most of the time you'll be truly f*cked if you end up here. There is an exeption to this rule however;

East towards Poland

Try the infamous (the red dot on the map right) service station here on Sunday evening; at the edge of the village, about 1 km from the ramp. Most of the time it's shite for hitching, but Sunday evening it usually gets clogged with Polish lorry drivers, waiting for the magical 22.00 to appear.

Any other time of the week it's not worth the hassle and it's better to avoid this exit at all costs. If by any chance you'll get dropped off here anyway, try making a sign Bad Bentheim and see if you can hitch further from there. There is quite a bit of commuting between Oldenzaal and Bad Bentheim/Schüttorf/Nordhorn, and many of them needing to be the northern or central parts of Oldenzaal use this exit.

West towards Hengelo, Amsterdam

Nevertheless hitchhiking into the Netherlands is pretty much o.k. compared to the spot in direction west. The on-ramp has enough space for cars to pull over. Most traffic might only go towards the next on-ramp in Oldenzaal, which is fact is ways better than this spot.
