The German town of [[Kehl]] (just over the border to the East) is a good place to pick up traffic to the A5 (all directions), especially from the gas petrol station at the entrance to the B28 ([http://hitchwiki.org/maps/?place=7333]).

Walking (from Strasbourg centre) to Kehl takes about 50 minutes if you go the shortest route (check Google maps!).Strasbourg tram reaches Kehl center since 2018, the price is the same as within Strasbourg, 2€

Alternatively, you can take the regional train (around 6 minutes for about EUR 3) or the bus tram (line #21; one bus every 30 min; EUR D, 20 minutes, 1.30; takes longer than the train80€). The bus stops in several places from "Ancienne Douanne" (in the centre) through to the east side of the city. On Sunday the first bus leaves at 9:30 am.

=== Going North ([[Metz]], [[Saarbrücken]]) {{Afr|4}} and South ([[Mulhouse]], [[Switzerland]]) {{Afr|35}} ===Take the tram (red line) to Illkirch Lixenbuhl and then the bus (line 2) to Ostwald Eglise. From the bus stop walk up to the entrance of the church ("Église" is French for "church") nearby. Facing the entrance just walk down Rue de l'Église parallel left to the church. Keep on walking until you reach Rue d'Illkirch which leads to the bridge over the motorway (see [https://goo.gl/maps/Me0pt directions]). If you want to go '''south''', don't cross the bridge: There is a steep path down to the petrol station. If you want to go '''north''' cross the bridge and access the other petrol station.

Heading '''southOption 1''' you might want to avoid the "steep path" which leads to the petrol station. Facing the entrance of the church you can also walk to the left, down Rue de Lorraine. At the end of Rue de Lorraine turn right Shell and follow the street until you reach the Total fuel stations on A35 motorway (see [https://goo.gl/maps/xcuvr directions]). There is a direct entrance to the service station for traffic going '''south''' towards Mulhouse and Switzerland. highway

Take the bus 62 (at the end of the A tram line Graffenstaden) and stop at . There you can walk up north for 3/5 minutes walking. All , on the D1083, toward a Total gas station! Eventually the road joins the bestN83, Robbel''and the A35.

Take a regional train direction ''Brumath/Mommenheim'' and make sure it stops at ''Stephansfeld''. From there you can walk within 15 min to the gas petrol station ''Aer Air de Seervice Service Brumath'' on the A4 and start hitchhiking straight at the gas petrol station.The trainticket from Strasbourg to Stephansfeld costs EUR 3.50 90 (20112016). You may have to jump a fence to enter the actual petrol station, but it is not too tall and in June 2016 there was a convenient hole in it.

Alternatively, just walk (10 minutes from the centre) to Place de HuguenauHaguenau, and walk to the entrance of the A4 (there is a cycle path that leads right next to it if you don't like contending with the cars). There is a lot of space for people to stop and it is the best way to head north from the centre. Mind you, do NOT hitchhike at the Place de Haguenau as there is absolutely no shoulder to pull over.

# '''Option 1'''  Join the A4 by the "going Going north route" (see upper)above. Good solution for Paris.# '''Optioon 2''' Join the N4: take the "bus interurbain" [http://www.cts-strasbourg.fr/Portals/0/PDF/horaires/interurbains/hiver/205.pdf #205],[http://www.cts-strasbourg.fr/Portals/0/PDF/horaires/interurbains/hiver/206.pdf #206 or #207] from "Ancienne synagogue-Les Halles" or "Gare Centrale" to Ittenheim (eur 1.80). From Ittenheim's bus stop, walk till the entry of the village (3 minutes), and you're on the best spot of the N4 to leave Strasbourg. This road has the advantage to be free of fees so many cool people use it. I recommend it to go to Metz and Nancy cause you don't loose a lot of time compared to motorways and you have many more chances to get a lift. Very efficient, I never waited more than 5 minutes there! == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}}
