If you are generally not that lucky thumbing down cars and you would like to start your jouney straight at the Highway, the easiest option is to travel to Rasthof Teufelstal which is located at the A4 approx. 15 km east of Jena. From here it should be no problem to ask people for lifts east or west. To get there either taake take the local train from Jena West towards Gera and get off at "Papiermühle". From here it is a (scenic) 3 km hike first east along the valley and then south to the small village of Bollberg. From here you either cross the fields directly to the Rasthof if heading west or cross the Highway (walk towards Mörsdorf after Böllberg) and head east at the other sidefor hitching east.
