UPDATE: the new The newly build AVE high speed train line now runs between the castellbisbal Castellbisbal station and the servicestation. service station, but it's still easy to get there: leave the train station, cross the AVE tracks on the big bridge right in front of you. on the other side take the first small road on the left. it soon changes into an unpaved road, that leads you around the hill. after about 10 minutes you reach the service station. (right after the point where the highway bridges over the ave.) For orientation: you can see the service station from the train on your right hand just before you reach castellbisbal. i've had a really good experience there hitching down to valencia, got a lift by some folks working for the encyclopedia catalana, and that gave me a catalan dictionary ;)Castellbisbal. it's really easy to leave barcelona this way, so don't miss this great city!

Alternatively, you can walk out of the main exit of the train station, and take the first turn right. Walk straight on from there, keeping the highway on your right hand-side.

'''Option 3:''' Take the metro and get off at Monumental. From there pass by the Plaça de Toros (Bullfight Arena) and stand in the last traffic light of the Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes corner Carrer Padilla before the ramp entrance to the highway C-31. When the light turns red ask people if they're heading towards the highway. If so, ask them if they can take you to the first gas station (gasolinera)... Off you go to France!
