'''====Option 1''': ====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 (Germany)|A9]], a quick and easy route to [[Berlin]] or [[Nürnberg]]. For i.e. [[Cologne|Köln]] it is best to stop at the ''Rasthof Nürnberg/Feucht'' as the freeways converge here. To continue on [[A93 (Germany)|A93]], i.e. [[Regensburg]] and [[Dresden]] you can change the car at ''Rasthof Fürholzen'' some 30km north of Munich.

Take ''July 2015: Option 2 worked extremely well, getting us out of Subway 6'' to ''Nordfriedhof''. Take the north-west exit from the station (front-left if you go from the city in less than an hour to Fürholzen raststation, which is centre). On your right you will see a magnifique spot two- we talked to three different people in lane road going out of a half an hour, ending up getting a ride all tunnel. This is the way to Hamburgspot. Stand You can get there crossing the bushes on its right side. Beware of the corner between ants. The cars are fast there but can easily stop, because only one lane is open for cars, which makes the restaurant entrance and the car park and you'll get second a chance perfect place to talk stop.:Option 2 seems to most of be a lot better than the people aroundabove, for two reasons. Lots First, there is a lot of space for cars from northern Germanyto stop. Second, Netherlands and Denmark''all cars on this road go straight for the highway. The spot is in the shade until midday (in summer at least).

'''July 2015: Option 3''': Take 2 worked extremely well, getting us out of the S1 city in less than an hour to Eching. Follow the road next Fürholzen Raststation, which is a magnifique spot - we talked to the station three different people in a half an hour, ending up getting a ride all the same direction of travel (north-east) as the train you leaveway to Hamburg. Walk under Stand on the autobahnbridge, once you are at first corner between the crossing over restaurant entrance and the S Bahn take the bike path (it will turn car park and you'll get a bit). You will go over another bridge and then need chance to head talk to Fürholzen. Once in most of the town, walk through it until you take Günzenhauser Straße to your left. Follow the road people around to the right and you will see the Autobahn. Raststätte Fürholzen is then in front Lots of you. Be sure to study the map in advance cars from northern Germany, Netherlands and take note that itDenmark's a 5–6 km walk. The spot is great, but it is not that easy to reach it.

''End of August 2017, workday, 9am, medium amount of traffic, Sign "N", got taken after 40min.', few ants'" ''End of December 2017: This place worked great for me. I was there on Friday the 23rd, just before Christmas. Got a ride up to Nürnberg with a sign stating 'A9' within 5 minutes. People drive relative slow coming from a turn out of the tunnel and I saw many looking at the sign.'' ''August 2019: Great place, about 10 minutes of waiting, going to Regensburg. Saturday, 1PM, no sign, ants still here'' ====Option 3====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&nbsp;km walk. The spot is great, but it is not that easy to reach it. <s>[http://goo.gl/maps/8oQK Here's a map]</s> OR: 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). Shortly before the bridge, turn left to reach the road coming down from the bridge (Paul-Käsmeier-Straße). At this crossing (<s>marked with B in [http://goo.gl/maps/AOYSz this map]</s>) , you can hitchhike easily to the next town Günzenhausen and walk towards Fürholzen. This road will underpass pass under the motorway, . A few meters later you'll find a small road to the petrol station "Fürholzen Ost" (<s>marked as C in the same [http://goo.gl/maps/AOYSz map]</s>). ''August 2016: Option 3 worked very well. If you are around the airport area, then Eching is only 4 S-bahn stops away (~15 mins by S1). The walk from Eching to Raststätte Fürholzen is about 1 hour, but it is possible to hitchhike on the way. At Raststätte Fürholzen I only needed 20 mins or so to find a lift to nearby Würzburg (where I found another lift to eventually get me to Bremen). Many cars were going in the direction of the Netherlands, some going to the North. I hitched on a Sunday, so many cars were full already (with passengers and bags) as people return home from vacations. Still, the spot was full of cars and there were some with empty seats.'' ''April 2017: Option 3 is not recommended, as service station Fürholzen is currently under construction and closed for traffic.''

The busy Holzkirchen petrol station on the autobahn is one of the last opportunities to buy the windsheild sticker required for the Austrian autobahn so this spot has a lot of traffic. Getting there takes over an hour (30 minutes on the train and a 3.5km just over 4km walk - if the weather is good the walk is nice thoughthrough fields and forest) but it's easy to find a lift once you're thereas it is quite crowded- easiest towards Innsbruck and Italy, you might wait longer towards elsewhere. Take the S3 (direction Holzkirchen) and get out at Otterfing. Walk in the same direction your train was going for 200 meters then turn left over the bridge (''Bridge currently under construction - August 2014''). Follow this road (Kreuzstrasse) for 2.5km 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). Edit 2018: this is not correct! It is much longer than this says, I could not find this supposed short route in July 2018 and it wouldn't even make sense with the map. You will go from the Otterfing train station south and turn left over the bridge as stated then take a right on a path through fields. There are several dirt roads going left through the field, take one and you will eventually arrive at the forest and find a sign. You walk through this for a ways and end up in another field with more paths you follow a bit north through a cow farm with solar panels on the roof that eventually leads to the gas station. With a pack the walk takes about an hour.

A really good spot to hitchkike in this direction is the petrol station near Machtsfinger Machtlfinger Straße. Take the U3 direction Fürstenried West to Machtsfinger Machtlfinger Straße. Get out of the station on the side towards Machtfinger Machtlfinger Straße where there are the escalators. Turn right on Machtsfingerstraße Machtlfinger straße and then left on Boschetsriederstraße. Follow it for a few hundred meters and you will see the petrol station on the right side. You can also take the bus 51 direction Moosach to Drygalski-Allee, the petrol station is 20meters behind it. A 95 is not the only direction from this station but many people will go there. The toilet is for free and even gendered.

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 towards 4 stops to ''Blutenburg''. (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, which is '''closed as of May 2013''', expect a long waiting time at Augsburg - as long as Rasthof Augsburg is closed it's better find a ride all the way to Ulm. '''Update:''' When Insa and [[User:Jan|Jan]] were at the Augsburg station on 15 May 2013, the construction work was apparently just finished. Still, Apparently the spot is a bit hard – but its quite a big station -but if you go around and ask people you should manage.

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.

It's a wagenburg (place where people live in their campervans). Usually they are open for travellers and they have guest van for sleeping, but come to this place not so late and firstly meet with a people. They also have a lot of place where you can put a tent. You can find there freeshop with books and clothes. The collective of this place organise some meetings, shows, etc. [http://olga089.blogsport.de/ "Stattpark OLGA", Tumblinger Str. 62Boschetsrieder Straße 109]
