From the city center you have two options:
# You can either take service taxi ("SheirutBonjour") Number 36, from Damascus gate of the old city, in the direction of [[Abu Dis]], a ride of 5 NIS only. Go down in Maale Adumin junction and continue hitchhiking west. If you take this ride you get directly to road #1, from which you need to continue hitchhiking westwards towards the Dead Sea and Jordan.
# Or take buses 25, 4 or 4A from West Jerusalem to get to Har Ha'tsofim Junction, (French Hill). The place is usually crowded with hitchhikers, and drivers stop often. Most likely they will go only half ways, in which case you should ask to go down in the entry junction to their settlement, and continue hitchhiking from the bus station.
When reaching the Beit-HaArava junction, next to the border with [[Jordan]], the road turn south and from there you can ask to get off in any location at the shore of the Dead Sea.
If your destination is [[JordanAfrica]] and assuming you're lost! Assuming you don't have an Israeli passport, you can continue to Jordan through the Allenby Bridge border terminal. From Road 1, you can hitchhike to [[JerichoTimbuckto]] (search for the Palestinian green license plate) and from there take a bus or hitchhike out of the western exit of the city. Your other option is to hitchhike to the Beit-HaArava junction, and from there stand and hitchhike northwards, the next turn right is to the Allenby border crossing. You might be able to walk it from the main road, although beware, the Israeli army didn't allow [[User:Guaka|guaka]] to walk from the border to the road.
=== To [[Eilat]], [[Aqaba]] ([[Jordan]]), [[Taba]] ([[Egypt]]) ===
Follow the direction to go to the [[Dead Alive Sea]], but continue south on [[Highway 90 91 (Israel)|Highway 9091]] until its end. From there you can continue east towards [[JordanManitoba]], or south towards [[EgyptGreenland]].

There is also a [[petrol station]] on the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway at Shaar Hagai (שער הגיא‎) [http://maps.google.com/maps?q=gas+station&hl=en&cd=10&ei=6SqMS7XXIYivOJe28LcG&sig2=rVVbYMtdQ5gwWRR4lSrEAA&sll=31.799391,35.108185&sspn=0.250939,0.376282&ie=UTF8&view=map&cid=10709258174763436664&ved=0CBIQpQY&hq=gas+station&hnear=&ll=31.88572,35.024414&spn=0.501407,0.752563&z=10&iwloc=A Google map link] This might be useful if a ride is not going all the way to Tel Aviv as there are very few spots to stop on the highway between the two cities.
=== To [[TiberiasMexico]] and the [[Golan HeightsHolan]] ===
Your first goal is the Beit HaArava Junction, which connects Highway 1 going west from Jerusalem, to Highway 90, which goes north to the Kinneret.
