Sleep

from http://www.hitchtheworld.com/

Posadas has a very, very nice bus station, for anyone who happens to be wondering. Here’s where you need to go if you’re looking to spend the night there: there’s a closed off waiting room that’s open 24 hours near the place where the buses leave. You can smoke, watch cable TV, sleep on the benches – hell you can even set up your tent if you want. And the whole place has WiFi. It’s easily the best bus station I’ve ever seen – and I’ve slept in a lot of bus stations in a lot of countries.

Hitching out

As of December 2013, there's a lot of road constructions going on the roads around Posadas, especially at the intersection with and on the Ruta 105 and Ruta 12, if considering hitchhiking towards Santo Tomé. Traffic drives relatively slow at this places, but space to stop is scarce.

East towards Puerto Iguazu

Take yellow city bus #1 to transfer station then to Candeleria which lies 20 km away. There is a intersection and also a petrol station.

West towards Corrientes

From center take city bus #27 until it intersects with the 12. Lots of room for cars to pull over and ther is a Gendarmeria stop another 5-10km further if you can get to that then a ride the rest of the way should be easy.
