De Lutte is a village in the far east of the Netherlands, it is also home of the easternmost ramp in NL on the E30.

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 to Poland

Try the infamous 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.
