Göttingen is a traditional university city in the German state Lower Saxony.

Hitchhiking out

x27px south towards Kassel, Frankfurt am Main and north towards Hannover or Braunschweig

on-ramp in the city

If you are travelling south in direction Frankfurt am Main, take the motorways a A7 and later A5. Göttingen isn't a big city so you can get out from there by walking easily. It's also possible to take a bus. The bus goes very close to the motorway. Get out at bus stop Kaufpark. From there you can walk some hundred meters and you'll find a good on-ramp. There is enough place for cars to stop.

service station Göttingen

Take bus 132 to Mengershausen. It goes roughly every hour during working days (as of December 2010 : always at xx:48), look up the times at reiseauskunft.bahn.de (Göttingen -> Mengershausen). It costs less than 3€. Arriving there, you walk down Lindenstraße towards the east where there is a bridge over the Autobahn. Now you can see and chosse between both the service stations towards south or north.
