[[User:N0id|n0id]] hitchhiked there several times and generally finds it easier to find a lift by asking then by thumbing. One time he was sent away by the staff claiming that he was disturbing customers. This had never happened before though.
Petrol station from the motorway:
A very good way to hitch out of the city is going to the petrol station "Biegener Hellen" on the motorway A12 (Berlin - Poland). To get there take a train from Frankfurt to '''Pillgram'''. The train goes once per hour, takes less than 10 minutes and costs 2,60 Euro (March 2013). From the train station in Pillgram follow the street "Zum Bahnhof" until the end, turn left and the next big street right. Walk for some minutes and you will get out of the village. There will be a small path for workers of the petrol station. This path will take you to the petrol station. Traffic is not huge because most people prefer to fill gas in Poland where it's cheaper, but still it is no bad spot.
In total you have to walk for two kilometers, but it is by far the best option to get out of the Frankfurt and Slubice.
=== East towards [[Poznań]], [[Warsaw]] {{European Route Number|30}} ===
For the faster option take bus #984 from the central station 'Bahnhof' to the stop 'Leinengasse'. You will notice that you pass the highway just before the bus stop already. Walk back, make your way to the highway and start walking. It is about 2km to the border station. Be aware that the bus runs not very often, so check [http://www.svf-ffo.de/fahrgastinfo/liniennetzfahrplan/Folder/Linie984.pdf the schedule] before hand.

Some minutes later you will pass a bridge under the motorway. Turn left into the next path and you will be on the petrol station. From here it is very easy to catch a ride to Poland, especially Poznan.

Do not forget to buy the ticket to Warsaw already in the first train to Poznan rather than two separate tickets.
*[[User:dorfdisco]]: Sorry, but this informations are unreliable. In March 2013 the train from Frankfurt only to Poznan costs already 19 Euro and the student discount inside Poland is only for students registered on a Polish university (German train company will not be interested in that anyway).
