== Hitching Out Hitchhiking out ==
General tip - since hitchhiking common enough in Iceland, you can always try asking the local bus drivers or at the tourist information offices for good spots. They might not have experience with hitchhiking, but they will with driving around, and will be happy to help.
=== Direction: North ([[Borgarnes]], [[Ísafjörður]], [[Akureyri]], [[Þingvellir]], [[Geysir]]) ===
It's not really possible to hitch out of the city center. Best is to You'll have more luck if you take bus 15 (280 460 IKR; no change given and the official Stræto ticket app often does not accept foreign credit cards) from the Hlemmur bus stop towards [[Mosfellsbær]] (Haholt station there is . This will take you out to the number 1 ring road. Look out for a KFC in a rather good spot little retail park - very close to Route 1)the stop name is Háholt. There you You can get out off here and start hitchhiking along head to the roundabout round the main roadcorner and hitch from there. If you want to go north There are also budget grocery shops nearby (BorgarnesBónus, AkureyriKrónan) it's which sometimes give free food away. You also possible have the possibility to take get further out of the city by taking bus 57 towards [[Kjalarnes]] and get out there, but Akranes is further away from Route 1or 29 to Esjurætur with the same bus ticket.
=== Direction: East along Route 1 (Vik, Höfn, etc.) ===
=== Direction: West ([[Keflavík]], Airport) ===
The Catch bus 1 ( or bus 34 if that is more conveniant) from Reykjavik to Hafnarfjörður (280 ISK) which stops for 5 minutes at the main bus station in Hafnarfjörður and then proceeds further into Hafnarfjörður (Bus 1 "Hfj. Vellir"). When Get off at the bus leaves the main station in Hafnarfjörður stop Suðurhvammur, from there it looks like a regular highway onramp, but actually it is not a highway, so while you can ask hitch directly then and there on the driver onramp it is generlly quicker and easier to stop at just walk onto the bus stop closest to Reykjanesbraut, main road and walk along that road for a 100 meters or 200 meters until you find a place where cars can keep your eye on a mappull over. From there you can walk to the Reykjanesbraut and it's fairly doable to hitch  Hitchhiking from the side of city directly is not the roadeasiet.   == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == [[nomad:reykjavik]] [[trash:reykjavik]]
