''==== Option 1''====: Take tram #3, #8 or #12 to the last stop ''Trotha''. Go back to the traffic light where the tram turned and walk 500m along Trothaer Straße (later Magdeburger Chaussee) until you reach an Aral station. Try hitching at the station or stand by the road. It is better to stand by the road. After the Aral station there is a shoulder, which is not tarmaced but still good to stop. Try to get a lift on the Autobahn, as cars further up drive pretty fast. The service station ''Plötzetal'' is very close, it is after the next exit ''Löbejün''. If your driver goes to Könnern ask them to go via the highway and drop you at the service station.
''==== Option 2:''====Take the tram #1 to the last stop ''Frohe Zukunft'' and hitch directly at the road with a sign. Especially locals will avoid the longer route via the B100 and drive this way towards the on-ramp ''Tornau'', but also some navigation systems lead you this way. You can accept a lift to the on-ramp, although there is no shoulder to stop.
''Option 3'': The Aral station near ''Wasserturm''. The best way is probably to stand by the road while keeping an eye on the cars at the station.
It should be possible to catch rides somewhere on The gas station at ''Delitzer StraßeWasserturm''is a good spot for catching rides to Leipzig (see above under [[Halle (Saale)#All_Directions_.2F_North_towards_Berlin:_A9_North|All Directions]]). Tram #7 goes Another option starting further south in that direction from the central city is the ''B6'' National Road: From the main station, walk along ''Raffinieriestraße'', which turns into ''Leipziger Chaussee''. HoweverYou will very quickly reach the outskirts of the city, be aware that there are constructions on that road and also where you can start hitching from numerous spots. === South towards [[Nürnberg]], [[München]]: ([[A9_(Germany)|A9]] South) ===The service station (Autohof) at [[A9_(Germany)|A9]]-exit No. 16 (''Großkugel'') is a good spot for catching long rides going south. You will reach the service area by hitching along the tram might not run ''B6'' towards Leipzig for approximately 18km (see abover under [[Halle (Saale)#East_to_Leipzig|East to its final stop (May 2011Leipzig]]). Another option is to take the S3 train from Halle main station to ''Schkeuditz West''. From there it's a one minute walk to the service area.

== Hitchhiking out ==
=== All directions Directions / North towards [[Berlin]]: [[A9_(Germany)|A9]] North ===
A good place to find a lift towards [[Berlin]] (A9) and [[Leipzig]]/[[Dresden]] (A14) is the Aral gas station near ''Wasserturm''. You get there by taking tram #1 in direction of ''Frohe Zukunft'' and getting out at the stop ''Äußere Hordorfer Straße''. The gas station is on your left after the traffic light. You can also take an S-Bahn from the central station and get out at ''S-Bhf Dessauer Brücke'', then you need go up the stairs, cross the street and walk right a few meters.
Drivers can go via the exits ''Trotha'', ''Tornau'' or the Bundestraße B100.
[[User:N0id|n0id]] once got a direct lift after 10 minutes to Magdeburg at the spot in Frohe Zukunft, but a second time proved to be as bad as the Aral station near Wasserturm where it took usually one hour or more. Although he tried it only once, the first option might be the best.
=== West or Easttowards [[Göttingen]], [[Kassel]]: [[A38 (Germany)|A38]] ===
Many trams go to the stop ''Rennbahnkreuz''. Here, the B80 begins, which leads to the [[A143_(Germany)|A143]], leading in turn to the ''A38''. It might be possible to catch lifts towards Leipzig and towards [[Göttingen]] or [[Kassel]], but there is no real place to stand, just a traffic light (after the bridge) where cars towards Leipzig turn left and all others go straight.
=== East to [[Leipzig]] ===

== Public transport Nomadwiki & Trashwiki ==You can basically get everywhere by tram. Occasional ticket inspections. Sometimes in uniform (easily recognizable), sometimes plain clothes. They alway carry devices to check tickets though!{{nomadwiki}}
