The buses in Rennes work in a "you're supposed to buy a ticket" way, but it's simple to use them without paying, as chances are that a ticket inspector comes on and asks to check your ticket are slim.

Hitching Out

The best place are the gas stations before and after the city if you come from outside the place.

West towards Saint Brieuc, Morlaix, Brest

Get to the J.F. Kennedy subway station (see map). Then walk along the Boulevard d'Anjou towards the Route de Saint-Brieuc. At the roundabout you'll find a perfect hitchhiking spot.

South towards Nantes

Take the metro towards the Henri Fréville station (see map). There, walk down the Passage Henri Fréville for some meters towards a roundabout. Walk straight forward, down under the highway bridge and there you'll find a good spot to head towards Nantes. Take a closer look at the map the the right to find out where exactly.

East towards Laval, Le Mans, Paris, A 81

Anyway, it's a little bit complicated, no close toll, no petrol station near from at my knowledge... The goal is too find where the cars leaving from the center of Rennes to take the A81... GPS System propose them to take the "rue de Nantes" to go on the "rocade" and next A81 however we don't see spots on the maps, maybe there is a petrol station on that avenue, but this I'm not sure...

When I left Rennes it was in the night and I was hitchhiking on a big round-abount (yellow point from TerreHappy), ans I think it wasn't the best way... Find it :) !

IMPORTANT : On the sign put "Laval", because you can't put "Vitré" no petrol station and no toll before... Don't put like me "Le Mans" too far to leave that town ....
