'''Nice''' is a city in [[France]]. It is fairly easy to get out of it, which is the main positive thing.
==Hitching Out=====East towards [[Italy]]===
Catch the bus #6 to the stop ''Bon Voyage'' (costs EUR 1.00) or walk from the city towards the motorway signs ([[A8 (France)|A8]]) along the river with no water, it takes about an hour. The motorway is above you, go to the onramp that says to [[Menton]] and [[Monaco]]. Plenty of room to pull over, and cars are going pretty slow.
When going to Italy, wait for a car going at least to Menton (or use a sign), then ask to drop you out at the first petrol station (the only one between the two cities) shortly after the exit to [[Monaco]], and look for drivers going to Italy there.
===West towards [[Marseille]], [[Lyon]], [[Paris]]===
Take a train the bus No 10 to St Laurent du Var - Gare SNCF. From the station building north of the tracks walk along rue Léonard Anfossi. Soon you will arrive to a roundabout, follow on, pass under the motorway bridge, where you'll see a second roundabout, the exit on your left is the onramp for westbound A8. Use a sign saying [[Cannes]] and get off at the petrol station on the Cannes bypass.
===Both west and East on the [[A8 (France)|A8]] ===
There is a [[éage]] in nortwest Nice suitable for both directions. The problem is though it is difficult to access it. Take the bus no.9 to ''Nice - La plaine'' and from there hitch or walk the remaining 2,5 km north along ''Route de Grenoble''. Firstly, the motorway will be parallel to the road on your left, there you'll be able to see the southbound péage but unable to access it. A bit further is a roundabout with an [[on-ramp]] for A8 towards [[Monaco]];[[Menton]] with a péage a 100 m further.
To get to the southbound péage you'll have to keep north on ''Route de Grenoble'' (use the left [[shoulder]]), cross the A8 under the bridge and you will see a southbound on-ramp accessible only to cars coming from the north. Walk back along it till you get to the péage (although that's probably forbidden).
===North towards [[Grenoble]]===
That's a mountain road, where you can make it to Grenoble in one day or less (in summer).
The first way to get there is the same as for the Péage on the A8, but from the roundabout just hitch towards Digne instead the A8. Other possibility is to take the "Chemin de Fer de Provence " train to Bellet, (at least 1 train an hour) the're is a good roundabout just next to the station.
