Take a tram till one option: heading north towards Karlsruhe, Frankfurt To get to the "HolzmarktBreisgau"gas station where you can ask for rides on the A5: take tram number 3 direction Haid until the end of the line. Line 2,3 or 5 are heading From theretake bus number 35 and get off at the station called "Im Maierbruhl. Walk from " When you get off the bus go back down the stop outside of street in the city towards direction of the river ''Dreisam''bus came from and turn right onto Freiburger landstrasse. There Walk until you are turning right and at get to the traffic light ([[there's a bakery on the way where you can ask get coffee and food for the cars for your destinationroad]]) then turn left onto Mengener Strasse. You can as well wait after Follow the crossroad with road ([[about 1km]]) until you get to a bridge, then go left up a signpath--you will see the gas station there. (Two cars stopped to offer me a ride on this road as I donwalked, so it't recommend that, but s possible to hitch rides here if you don t speak German make sign "A5 -> KA ([[Karlsruhe]]) 're feeling cold or BS ([[Basel]]"lazy.)

I've personally never tried any of those options two to four above, but I recommend hitching from the Aral petrol station on Leo-Wohleb-Straße 2. Freiburg is relatively small, so if you are in the city anyway you can very easily walk to this spot. This road goes along the Dreisam river and leads onto the A5 autobahn. In fact you will pass the hitching spot recommended in the first paragraph. I don't recommend that spot because its a 4-lane traffic and difficult for cars to pull over, although many people hitch from there. Waiting times at that Aral petrol station vary but it is recommended to start early so you catch workers commuting to other cities. You'll get drivers going north and south, you just need to ask around.
