North towards Oslo
=== North towards [[Oslo]] ===
 The best place to start heading towards Oslo is the [[rest area|service station]], STIGS CENTER,Stigs Center
There are a few buses which go there, the easiest one is bus number '''47''' towards '''Tuve''' that leaves from '''Hjalmar Brantingsplatsen''',
The bus stop '''Stigs Center''' is directly on the onramp to the motorway so you just step off the bus and hitch! On a working day morning this seems to be a great Great spot to go north towards Stenungsund or Uddevalla, right before both these places there are major rest stops with petrol stations where lots of Norwegians and trucks headed into Norway stop.(As of July 2018 i tried this spot and waited there 6hrs. In the end a Swedish-American woman picked me. It looks like a nice spot and there is a bus stop which is suitable for cars to stop, maybe i was unlucky)Alternatively, if you're still in the city-center, you can try getting a lift from the [[petrol station hitchhiking|petrol station]] located close to [http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?f=q&hl=it&geocode=&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=118215905716686756957.000448147f6ec7cb40744&ll=57.707071,11.997392&spn=0.006993,0.023518&z=16 this] roundabout (near to Ullevi Norra, the big stadium) where cars are going in many directions, some of which might go to Oslo. However, most of the cars coming from the round about are going very very fast, and it's hard for them to stop on the street here. And, most cars at the petrol station next to it are just staying inside the city at this point. Possibly best chance is to make a sign for E6 N, and stand by the red light coming from the city centre towards the motor way. The light turns red often and for long enough that someone might pick you up and at least take you to Stig Center, focus your attention on the lanes marked for your destination, going north is the left and middle lanes. A good day to get a ride to Oslo is probably a Sunday since many Swedes are home in Göteborg over the weekend, and on Sundays head back to Oslo for work. ''[[user:JosephKnight31|JosephKnight31]] got stuck here while hitchiking from Denmark to Norway with a friend in July 2019. The wait time is long, so arriving later in the day can be tricky. We got stuck overnight and ended up sleeping in the nearby McDonalds. Very friendly staff.''
