[[User:Vulla|Vulla]] In the West Bank is really common to Hitchhike and super easy. In the Trempyada you will always find many young jewish people even 8 at the same time( that's what i ve found on the 60 road), but don't worry you will always manage to find a ride. On the trempyada you will find soldiers to protect the Jewish people, in recent time there were differents attacks by Palestinian against Jewish (but sometimes even Jewish people attack the Palestinian) , when i HHed there, there was no problem but always pay attention. You can arrive at your destination HH from settlment to settlement or if you are lucky you can even find a direct ride. Don't be scared if you see some settlers HH with a machine gun. They are soldier and they are allowed to carry guns. Travelling around you will understand many things about the complex situation.(January 2015)
The Jewish parts of the west bank have very developed hitch-hiking culture, probably more than anywhere else in Israel. you will see line of people waiting in the Trempiada, and you should respect the que.. you better sometime stay inside the settelment instead of outside becouse the settlers will prefer to stop there. There are Trempiadas that goes straight to the settelment from Jerusalem neighbourhoods-
If you want to go to Gush Ezyon and Hebron, take a local bus to Gilo neighbourhood, get down at Afarsemon st. walk to the big junction in the left, a big Trempiada. If you want to go to Nablus and Binyamin district (Rammalla area) take the Tram\ bus to Pisgat Zeev and go to Hizma Junction. even though- the bus is extremly cheap, so check it out. If you want to go to Dead sea and Jericho- take the tram to Amunition Hill, and there is trempiada at your right side. just be aware that jews can't go to the arab cities (except Hebron) and arabs can't go inside the jewish settelments.
60 road it's the road that cross the area from Hebron to Hadera (and Jerusalem in the middle). That why, if you want to travel north, you can hitch-hike from Samaria area through Tapuach junction to the Jordan Valley or to the enternaace of 6 road (Kesem junction) in Kesem there is perfect Trempiyada to the north. You can also hitch hike from Samaria to Israel center- Tel-Aviv area, airport..just wait a little.
