The [[liftershalte]] is also fine if you are going West.
=== East towards [[Germany]] ===
Hitching east towards Germany is harder since there's no obvious place to start hitching. Probably the best The usual hitchhiking spot is the from traffic light at the crossing of the Europaweg and the Sontweg (close to Ikea). There's a bus stop right after the traffic lights, so people can stop for you. Since the city changed the ring south-east it might be better Some people prefer to go walking a bit. Pass start hitching already on the Ikea and follow other side of the road than you will find the highwaybridge, follow it to just after the left and there will be quiet a good spotcrossing Europaweg/Damsterdiep. People at these two spots can, however it is industrial zone so not recommmandable in , still drive towards the night West or weekendSouth. People heading east usually don't go very long distance, so you are likely to The best spot is therefore at the end up at of the border crossing after a few ridesEuvelgunnerweg. It's possible quite far away, so might not be an option if you don't have a bike or someone to get here directly by traindrop you off. Here all cars are going on the highway eastwards, as is described belowso all cars would do. In weekends you could consider to hitch to [[Winschoten]] instead and try to get a hitch thereMany are not going very far, since a lot of Germans go shopping in Winschotenbut the first gas station is already before the first exit.
'''Alternatively''' you can take the train (sometimes without a ticket, as they don't always check) to [[Nieuweschans]] and start hitchhiking on the border service station a short walk away. This is a place where you are likely to end up anyway. Just after the border the roads splits, and there aren't any service stations for a long time, so this is the last chance to get a good ride.
