Den Haag or The Hague is a big city in the Netherlands. It is located in the province of Zuid Holland.
Hitching Out
North, West, South towards Utrecht, Amsterdam, Rotterdam
The liftershalte, a spot for hitchhiking at the beginning of the A12 next to the Malieveld not far from the central Station is great when you're going in the direction of Utrecht, but it could also work when going north towards Amsterdam or south towards Rotterdam and Belgium.
via ferry from Hoek van Holland to Harwich (East England)
I got a hint by a very nice CS fellow concerning this way:
But I do have to tell you to might think over hitching from hoek van holland. I have tried it and it was one of the worst things... I got thrown out of the port by really agressive guards telling me I was an illegal imigrant and so on... I mean I have hitched from lots of ports in my life and never really had any problems as the truckdrivers usaly dont pay for extra passengers and are cool to take you... So if you really wanna go that way hitch a bit before the port.. There are for example a little gas station just before, so if you get a lift there with someone not going to harwich, tell them to drop you off there instead of thaking you all the way to the port and when you are with the truckdriver you can just as well be there collige or relative or whatever... But to be honest, not many ferrys goes from there so if you do not get on one you probebly have to sped the night outside if the cold in the middle off a huge industral area in the middle of nowhere... I had to get a lift back to Rotterdam that night and spent the night there and then hitch south to Calais to get the ferry to Dover the next day.. Qite frustrating as I was so close to get home and then had to change plas as they would never let me in to that port again.. Oh, well good luck whaterwe tou end up doing!
