Take the Subway 6 to Studentenstadt. From there walk about 300 m north on Ungererstraße until you are under a bridge. You will see signs for the motorways. This leads directly to the A9 highway, a quick and easy route to Berlin or Nürnberg. For i.e. Cologne it is best to stop at the Rasthof Nürnberg/Feucht as the freeways converge here. To continue on A93, i.e. Regensburg and Dresden you can change the car at ''Rasthof Fürholzen'' some 30km north of Munich.

Take the S1 to Eching. Follow the road next to the station in the same direction of travel (north-east) as the train you leave. Walk under the autobahn bridge, once you are at first the crossing over the S Bahn take the bike path (, it will turn a bit). You will go over another bridge and then need to head to Fürholzen. Once in the town, walk through it until you take Günzenhauser Straße to your left. Follow the road around to the right and you will see the Autobahn. Raststätte Fürholzen is then in front of you. Be sure to study the map in advance and take note that it's a 5–6 km walk. The spot is great, but it is not that easy to reach it.

Take Alternative way: take the S1 to Eching. Pass under the railway to the side where the trains head back towards Munich City and walk the bike path along the railway in the direction you arrived by train until you reach the first bridge that goes over the railway (around 100m)100 m. Shortly before the bridge, turn left to reach the road coming down from the bridge (Paul-Käsmeier-Straße). At this crossing you can hitchhike easily to the next town Günzenhausen and walk towards Fürholzen. This road will pass under the motorway. A few meters later you'll find a small road to the petrol station Fürholzen Ost

The A8 highway begins inside the town. A few hundred meters before the beginning, there is a bus stop called Ramersdorf, so enough place to stop. Take a subway to Karl-Preis-Platz or just walk from the town centre along Rosenheimer Straße. Walk past both petrol stations on Rosenheimer Strasse and 10 minutes after the aral you will see a bus stop with a park next to it. If you arrive late after dark, the park is good to sleep in.This is far from an ideal spot, as it's very difficult to catch the attention of the drivers in this spot, and there is too much urban traffic and buses. If you do choose this spot, make sure you have a very visible sign. It's possible to put ''Rosenheim'' on a sign (and look for cars with the licence plate RO), which is the next city along the motorway. Close to Rosenheim, there is a huge service area Irschenberg, where you will surely get a ride to Austria.

The easiest way to get out towards Rosenheim is to get the U-bahn/S-bahn to Ostbahnhof. From there, turn left onto Orleansstraße. Keep walking until you get to Rosenheimer Straße. Take a left when you reach it. About 500m 500 m on the right-hand side is a Shell petrol station. There is also a bigger Aral petrol station another 300m 300 m further on the same road. This is probably the best option for getting a hitch. There are also a good couple of places for cars to pull in before and after this petrol station so if the through-flow is bad you can always try this.

Alternative way: 30 min on S3 train till Otterfing. Walk in the same direction your train was going for 200 meters then turn left over the bridge. Follow this road (Kreuzstrasse) for 2.5km 5 km through fields and a forest until you reach the Autobahn. Turn right just before the road goes under the autobahn. Follow this road past the solar panels until the entrance of another tunnel under the autobahn, from here you should be able to see the petrol station ahead. Cut through the field to reach it (you don't need to jump any fences, to enter walk around the fence, to exit use the gap where the fence changes design). Around 5 km walk

'''Option 1''':The A96 begins inside of Munich. Close to the First service station on-ramps of the motorway there A96 is a petrol station Aral on Garmischer Straße that is frequented by many people before they the Rasthof Lechwiesen close to Landsberg, you can change cars here to go onto the motorwayfurther.

From Heimeranplatz bus line 63If you want to travel to any city on the Lake Constance (Bodensee), direction Forstenrieder Alleelook out for Swiss and Austrian cars as they all have to pass Lindau where they can come off the highway to drop you off and get back on it again easily - and this only takes them 2 minutes out of their way. Ask to be dropped off at the last exit (Exit at stop Garmischer strasse 2, Lindau) before the border to Austria, there is a roundabout close to a petrol station and walk for few minutes.McD that works well in any direction.

'''Option 2''':Take the S-Bahn number 8 (S8) to Neugilching, and walk on the main road 'Landsberger Straße' in the same direction where the train is going, in 800 meter you will see a petrol station to your right and Make Death (MC), there you can ask people for a lift for your direction or just for the petrol station in Landsberg, where are more cars stopping.

From the central railway station (''Hauptbahnhof''), take tram S2 towards ''Petershausen''. Get out at ''Obermenzing''. There along the street you can either walk the 2-3 km towards the motorway, or take bus #143 4 stops to ''Blutenburg''stop. (Can't recall final destination/name of direction)

The bus #143 stop is across the road from the S2 exit. If the bus is not leaving for a while, you can easily hitchhike at the traffic lights nearby. I would advise putting 'Augsburg' on the sign. There is a service station, Rasthof Augsburg, just before this town. Apparently the spot is a bit hard – but its quite a big station -but if you go around and ask people you should manage.

This stop is located directly in front of a roundabout, and KFC where the [[A8 (Germany)|A8]] highway for direction west starts. There's enough place for cars to stop in front of the [[roundabout]]. Expect high traffic. Literally stuck my hand out here and got a ride within 30 seconds. There are so many cars here! For the petrol-station-lover, some meters before a small petrol station is located, so if you're bored, go asking people there. Make sure to carry a sign where you want to go as the motorway will split after 2 km towards different directions. It is really easy to get a lift from there.(Edit - Jan 2017, I got off at blutenberg as suggested, but couldn't find a roundabout, I ended up hitching at 'blutenburg` bus stop which is next to a small petrol station, got picked up in 5 minutes)

The '''A 99''' A99 is the Munich ring road (http://www.autobahnatlas-online.de/A99.htm). While not as accurate as other south south/north bound jumping off points, the service station ''Rasthof Vaterstetten Ost'' is a good point if seeking to get lifts from long-distance lorry drivers, many of whom stay overnight here. This service station is located at the A99 in Feldkirchen. It is located only 2 km from the S-Bahn station Vaterstetten and requires walking through the small village to the back of the service station. 1,000 [[hitchhiking a truck|trucks]] or more park here here every night with many more passing through, heading north and south. While I would not like to sleep here (with a 1,000 plus lonely men), its a excellent place when heading both north and south. Make sure to carry a sign indicating what motorway who are hoping to take. For example, the A8 to the the South and East or the A94 to Passau.If you come at night or sunday (or any other time, if you're a daredevil), then you could check out the container of a bio supermarket which is on the way. Livediverse found in August 2016 there a lot of vegetables, fruits and bread. And also he had to give up catching a ride to Passau, as nobody was going this direction.

Maybe not the most comfortable place to sleep, but always open and not busy at night is the airport Franz-Josef-Strauss at A92 (from Regensburg). Hitchhiking away from there (late) in the evening is a pain, but if you end up there, you can count on a dry and warm night. There is no waiting hall (there are no flights at night) but enough restaurants where you can pick your bench and toilets are open any time.

If you want to meet loads of students and really cheap drinks - rare in Munich - come to Studentenstadt (Subway U6 north of the city centre). It's the largest student accomodation in Munich. You might find somebody to host you - without any guarantee. # There is a perfect place for camping, about 5 mins from Studentenstadt station - in the English Gardens.Just ask about the gardens and you will make it.Try to pitch your tent at night time, after all you are in Bavaria.

If you arrive on Friday you can get really good, cheap and vegan dinner in the [http://kafemarat.blogsport.de/englisch "Kafe Marat", Thalkirchener Straße 102] (maybe also on wednesdays?). It's a self-organized, more left wing place. Drinks are also really cheap there. Food normally is ready at around 20:30.
