'''Innsbruck''' is a city in [[Austria]]. It is situated north of the [[Brenner|Brenner-pass]], one of the main south-north crossing traffic axes in the alps, squeezed in the Inn River valley which dictates the directions of the traffic ways.
Due to the lack of space in the Inn River valley, Innsbruck offers 5 different highway motorway exits and a complicated system of traffic lanes.
== Hitching out ==
There are several opportunities in Innsbruck but no real "first choice" option. So here is one:
==== Highway Motorway exit Innsbruck Kranebitten ====This a a lonely highway 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 Busses running towards "EKZ CYTA" a suburban shopping center. You are passing the highway 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 center and walk back to the highway motorway exit, which comes first after the roundabout.
*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. The bus takes you 1.70€ (Summer 2008).
A sign indicating your desired direction might help you getting along. Good luck!
Just a kilometer after you enter the highwaymotorway, the road splits up - one minor road running north directly to [[Germany]] ([[Garmisch-Partenkirchen]], [[Munich]]) and the highway motorway continuing to run west - make sure you are in the desired direction!
