Regensburg is a city in Eastern [[Bavaria]], located between [[Munich]] (130 km to the south), [[Nürnberg|Nuremberg]] (110 km to the north-west), [[Prague|Praha]] (260 km to the north-east) and [[Linz]] (230 km to the east). It is a main stop on the way from BeNeLux and [[Germany]] (except the very south-east) to [[Vienna]], [[Hungary]] and whole south-eastern [[Europe]]. Two motorways are crossing at Kreuz Regensburg (some 5km from the City center):
* [[A3 (Germany)|A3]] from [[Frankfurt]]-[[Würzburg]]-[[Nürnberg]] to [[Passau]]-[[Linz]]-[[Vienna|Wien]]
== Hitchhiking out ==
The easiest place to reach from the city center is the exit ''Regensburg-Königswiesen'' (no. 42). You can use it for all directions. Coming from the center take the bus #4 (direction ''Lilienthalstraße'' or ''Universität'') or #10 (direction ''Dechbetten''). Don't take the ones going just to ''Königswiesen''. Information on all buses you will find at the web site of [http://www.rvv.de RVV]. You also can take #1 (direction ''Prüfening'') which runs every 10 minutes on working days. Leave the bus at ''Dechbetten'' (#4 and #10) or at ''Lilienthalstraße'' (#1 and #4). From this stop head to the south crossing under the railways, crossing a junction and you will see the ramp ''Königswiesen''. Always take the ramp east of the motorway for direction north {{north}} and from west of the motorway for (direction {{south}} ''(south)'').

=== West towards [[Heilbronn]], [[Stuttgart]] ===
* A good spot is on-ramp ''Regensburg-Burgweintig'' on A3. Take bus #2 (direction ''Schwabenstraße'') and get off at ''Benzstraße''. Walk back and turn wright on ''Landshuter Straße''. Continue about 100 m until you see the on-ramp. Traffic is slow because of the traffic lights and there is enough space for cars to safely stop and pick you up. A sign [[Nürnberg]] might be helpful.
* If you are on the way to [[Heilbronn]]/[[Stuttgart]]/[[Heidelberg]] or [[Würzburg]]/[[Frankfurt]] you might have to change the car at Raststätte ''Jura'' 60 km on your way to [[Nürnberg]].
=== East towards [[Passau]] ===
* If you are heading to the east there is an ''Autohof'' at the exit ''Regensburg-Ost'' (#101). Not too many cars there and only suitable to travel along A3. You can reach this place also by bus from the city center. Take bus #9 to ''Neutraubling'' and get out at [http://maps.google.de/maps?f=q&hl=de&geocode=6881126604781930165,48.996097,12.149670&time=&date=&ttype=&q=Junkersstra%C3%9Fe+%4048.996097,+12.149670&sll=48.995002,12.150364&sspn=0.012615,0.040169&ie=UTF8&ll=48.996466,12.149677&spn=0.012614,0.040169&z=15&om=1 Junkerstrasse]). The next service station is Raststätte ''Bayerischer Wald'' some 50 km on your way to [[Passau]]. Notice that the Raststätte ''Passau'' is not very popular as the fuel is much cheaper only a few kilometers after the border at ''Suben''.
* You can also try on-ramp ''Regensburg-Burgweintig'' on A3. Take bus #2 (direction ''Schwabenstraße'') and get off at ''Benzstraße''. Walk back and turn wright on ''Landshuter Straße''. Keep walking for about 500 m until you're on the other side of the underpass. You can stand in the turn lane, traffic is slow because of the traffic lights and cars can stop on the cycle path. A sign [[Passau]] is useful because the on-ramp is another wright turn in about 200 m on ''Franz-Joaef-Strauß-Allee''.
