You will see a couple decent sized pull offs which are bus stops but don't stop there. Keep going until the road begins to go straight uphill for a ways. At the top of this hill there is massive amounts of space for cars and trucks to stop and some will already be going a bit slower having just climbed the long hill. Also it appears that several trucks stop here anyways for various reasons.
== North towards [[Antofagasta]] (Ruta 5) ==
Ruta 5 goes right through the heart of the city, many vehicles, especially trucks, don't stop here and go north.
One option is to start hitchhiking right at the street light in the center (crossroads between Ruta 5 and Ruta 41).
Alternatively, there's a Copec service station about 7 km North of the center.
There are gas stations next to the bus terminal which tolerate camping hitchhikers. Alternatively, hitchwiki user Eristoff had some success sleeping on the dry river bed of Rio Elqui (from "Plaza de Armas", face the church and go left, you will find it in about 700m).
