Odense is a city on the island of Fyn in Denmark. It's the third largest city in Denmark, known primarily for being the birth town of Hans Christian Andersen.


Hitchhiking out

Going towards East or West

From Odense going towards either west or east, local hitchhikers mostly use the on-ramps of a same road junction that brings the trafic from/to the highway E20. To get to that road junction, check Google Maps for directions or options of public transportations to "McDonald's 5260". You can generally take buses from Odense central station with destination "Hjallese" or "Højby" (buses 21, 22 or 23) and ask to get off at the McDonald's by the highway (there will be only one McDonald's on your way).

Hitchhiking spots near the McDonald's of the highway E20 from Odense towards Jutland or Copenhagen

Towards Jutland Once you're at McDonald's, find the on-ramp on your right side which gives access to the highway (E20) towards "Kolding". Kolding is a city already in Jutland.

Towards Copenhagen Once you're at McDonald's, cross the bridge over the highway (E20) and then you'll see the on the on-ramp towards Copenhagen on your left side (in the signs you'll read Copenhagen in Danish, which is "København").

Internet access

At the train station there is a library where they have computers with free internet access. There's a sign saying "use for max 15 minutes" or something like that. But the nobody really cares for how long you sit there.
