=== Southeast towards [[Santiago de Chile|Santiago]]===
Get to '''''Avenida Argentina'''''. You can either walk from the historic centre (30 minutes) or take any micro (mini bus) that goes to ''Congreso'' or ''Terminal de Buses''. At the southern end of the avenue there is a beginning of the motorway 68 with a COPEC petrol station. It's a perfect spot for hitching. Make a sign. There will be no trucks, but it's easy to find a lift with cars and they usually go to the centre of Santiago.  ''Thumbing it, I got a ride from this gas station in less than five minutes.

Another option is to take a micro (mini bus) in Valparaíso to Placilla and leave the bus in the entrance to Placilla, then walk like 500 meters to the last petrol station, which is COPEC (there are three petrol stations in a row) always walking near the highway. After the COPEC there is a curve where all the trucks leave the city and it is very easy to catch one. Not all the trucks go to Santiago so try to take one going straight there or get off at the last toll plaza before Santiago called ''Peaje Lo Prado'' and catch another lift.
