→Hitchhiking out
Also, if you want to go west, keep in mind that the first petrol station after Innsbruck (''Pettnau'', 25km west of Innsbruck) is on the other side of the motorway. People going west '''can''' fuel up there, but again you'll find almost only cars going south to Italy.
=== Heading East towards [[Salzburg]], [[Rosenheim]], [[Munich]] ===
Starting point: Exit Innbruck Ost (East), at the fuel stations on the very end of Amraser-See-Straße, next to the DEZ shopping mall.
There is 2 petrol stations (just next to each other) on the street to the high-way. At the second one there was also a sign "Last petrol station before the high-way" - Easy to ask drivers there... (tried 2 times, got a ride always within few minutes)
==== Getting there by bus ====
Line C (direction Luigenstraße) exit DEZ, or line T exit DEZ Ost, and walk the last few meters towards the biggest road close by. Check [http://www.ivb.at/fileadmin/download/fahrplan/mein-fahrplan/liniennetzplan/ivb_liniennetzplan_schematisch_2008.pdf the schematic map of the local public transport] or [http://www.ivb.at/index.php?id=ivb&L=1 their webpage] also in English for further information. Make a sign indicating your desired direction ==== GAs station in schwaz ==== IF you don't want to hitchhike in a city you can blackride with train or bus about 25km to town called Schwaz and then walk 15 minutes to a gas station on highway and hitchhike in direction Rosenheim, Munich or Salzburg. === Heading North to [[Germany]] via Fernpass ===To go to Germany via Fernpass the easiest option is to take a bus to Nassereith. The buses go from the city (from main strain station for example) and Nassereith is often the final destination. You can easily take the bus for free. They don't ask for ticket while entering. Just go in and sit down. It takes about an hour of bus drive but Nassereith is already on the road to Fernpass which becomes A7 after the border. If the bus go to a station abzweigung Sankt wendelin go to there. From there you can just walk two minutes and hitchhike directly on the main road. It is an ok spot and there is plenty of trafic towards Germany. The first gas station in Germany is after Kempten so if you 1are going further up north get a lift at least to there or stay in Austria and find a longer lift before the road turns into a highway.70€ (Summer 2008)To search for a bus connection you can try ivb.atA sign indicating your desired direction might help If you don't like buses you can also take a local train to Telfs. They often don't control the tickets at all. In telfs you need to walk across the town and hitch on a road leading to Fernpass street. But it will take you getting alongmuch more time so i recomend to take the bus. Good luck!
=== Heading North or West ([[Landeck]], [[Reutte]], [[Füssen]], [[Kempten]], [[Scharnitz]], [[Garmisch-Partenkirchen]], [[Munich]]) ===
This a a lonely motorway exit in the very west of Innsbruck with a free Space just in the middle of the different lanes joining together in the direction of Bregenz and Germany. It is not a nice spot but it works!
===== Getting there by bus =====
Take line T of the IVB Buses running towards "EKZ CYTA" a suburban shopping centre. You are passing the motorway exit by bus just after crossing the Inn River bridge. Get of the Bus at EKZ Cyta, get all you need at the shopping centre and walk back to the motorway exit, which comes first after the roundabout.
A sign indicating your desired direction might help you getting along. Good luck!
A less awkward place to hitch north or west is by the bus stop at Resselstraße, next to the stadium. Drivers can see you easily here and there is lots of space to stop. [[User:Jophro|Jophro]] got a ride here in 20 mins after failing to find one in 45 mins at the aforementioned DEZ centre, same for [[User:madde|madde]]. It's clearly a popular spot (you'll notice a worn patch of grass ahead of the bus stop) - when he arrived another hitchhiker was there who got a ride in 7 mins. He found it more effective to take his approach and simply write 'D', instead of the city - if you're going to Germany.
In case you are confused, although the road signs are hard to see, its the bus stop next to the stadium, not the one in the opposite side of the street.
