== About Me ==<br />
My name is Tiziano I'm 22 years old and I'm from [[Padova]], [[Italy]]. I'm active on [http://www.couchsurfing.com Couchsurfing.com] and [http://www.hospitalityclub.org HospitalityClub.org] as host, guest and volunteer.<br />
So far, I've been hitchhiking in [[France]], [[Italy]], [[Germany]], [[Lithuania]], [[Latvia]], [[Estonia]] and [[Ireland]].<br />
My shortest rides were about 2-3 km long, in [[Turin]], [[Italy]], and that was the only time I was hitchhiking in [[Italy]], and in [[Doolin]], [[County Clare]], [[Ireland]]. So far the longest one I took was in [[Germany]] for 425km.<br />
I speak fluent Italian, English and French, some Spanish and German and a bit of Lithuanian.<br />

[[Category:Italy]]</div>Tizianohttps://hitchwiki.org/en/index.php?title=Italy&diff=13214Italy2007-08-26T12:32:33Z<p>Tiziano: </p>
<hr />
<div>In '''Italy''' hitchhiking is a bit less common than in [[France]] or [[Germany]], but it's very well possible.<br />
<br />
You can get a free map of whole Italy at almost every gas station (autogrill) with all gas stations listed in the map.<br />
<br />
==Legal or not?==<br />
Hitchhiking on the ''autostrada'' is not legal (there are big signs saying "NO autostop" at all highway entries), but it is unclear whether this extends to gas stations on the autostrada. It's probably just meant to stop people from walking on highways.<br />
If you're on a gas station it's a good idea to stay on friendly terms with the staff. When starting, it's probably a good idea to find a spot before people encounter that sign. It's less likely that you will encounter problems if you're not Italian.<br />
<br />
<!-- Guaka doesn't think so: Hitchhiking by standing beside the road putting your thumb out is forbidden in there. --><br />
<br />
== Communication ==<br />
Even though most Italians say not to speak English they seem to understand a lot of English. They also claim to not speak Spanish if you ask them, but they will almost always understand a whole lot of Spanish.<br />
<br />
Hitchhiking is ''autostop'' in Italian.<br />
<br />
Just say ''autostop'' and your destination or show your thumb, otherwise they often think you are asking how to get somewhere, as Italy has a lot of tourists.<br />
<br />
== Safety ==<br />
The northern part of Italy is safer than the southern part (south from Rome).<br />
<br />
== Border crossing ==<br />
Italy is in the [[Schengen treaty]], and so are [[France]] and [[Austria]], but [[Switzerland]] and [[Slovenia]] are not.<br />
<br />
== Heading North ==<br />
Take the Highway A23 (in the eastern part of Italy) to [[Austria]] (don't try to hitchhike through [[Switzerland]], it's very difficult). Follow the A23 to [[Villach]] and [[Salzburg]] to get through the Alps very easy. On that way, you will also find a lot of people heading to [[Hungary]], [[Slovakia]] and [[Slovenia]].<br />
<br />
Especially in summertime there are a lot of tourists from Austria and Germany. The new European plates start with a letter on the left side of the plate, representing the Country. Most Austrian (A on plate) and German (D on plate) are on the way to the sea or on their way back from holidays. So if you want to go North or South, try to find Germans or Austrians (they also speak better English than the Italians).<br />
<br />
== Cities ==<br />
* [[Rome]]<br />
* [[Venice]]<br />
* [[Florence]]<br />
* [[Milano]]<br />
* [[Bergamo]]<br />
* [[Trento]]<br />
* [[Genova]]<br />

<hr />
<div>I'm Italian and I never heard that hitchhiking is not allowed in Italy.<br />
What it is surely true is that it is forbidden on highways, in fact <br />
you can read the sign "NO AUTOSTOP" at the entrance. <br />
Well, I guess nobody would hitchhike on a highway anyway..<br />
<br />
:Thanks a lot for pointing that out! [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 21:22, 14 August 2006 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Harder in the North?==<br />
My few experiences in Italy left the impression that it essentially gets harder and harder to catch rides the farther north you are.<br />
If some can verify this trend then it probably warrants inclusion.<br />
<br />
Hitchhiking on petrol station is illegal, few month ago, police come to us when we was hitchhiking on the exit of the station, he said petrol station is part of the hightway so according to Italian law it's forbiden here. He was quite agressive, i said i will only ask poeple who are taking gas and don't use my thumb, he reply that if i ask people for a lift he will arrest me because it's against the law, he tell me to call a taxi and go to the next train station. After 15 minutes talking where i explain we don't hav any money, he finaly let us, but we had to wait they leave the station to start to ask people.<br />
So, the fact you will be allow or not to hitchhike on highway will depend if the policeman you meet like to aply the law to 100% or not, but it's officialy forbidden. Like in [[France]] where hitchhiking on highway is forbidden and on petrol stations also, but policeman there don't apply this law (only in one area close to [[Lyon]], where 1 hichhiker die 1 year ago crashed on petrol station exit, so local police dont let hichhikers on petrol station.)<br />
<br />
<br />
:From what I've done in Italy (only two days), I found the same - it got harder the further north we got. As for petrol stations, I also got approached by the police who said that it wasn't allowed there, after about 20 seconds they left me alone and drove off. It doesn't make sense that petrol stations are still part of the motorway - that way it would also be illegal for people to park their cars and walk around, also on maps the petrol station roads aren't shown in the 'autostrada-colour' - but I don't know for sure. --[[User:Tmoon|Tom]] 12:26, 15 July 2007 (CEST)<br />
<br />
<br />
:: Hi guys. It simply doesn't make sense to scare away hitchhikers in a country governed by maffia. The polizia should have better things to do. And indeed, service areas are not part of the motorway in a strict sense. --[[User:Fverhart|Fverhart]] 13:26, 15 July 2007 (CEST)<br />
<br />
::: I dont want to scary anyone, only to say what can happen if you meet police who want to aply the law, they won't arrest you but they will make lost your time only to prove they have the power. But Italy it's so hard to hitchhike, waiting time it's almost the same like everywhere in Europe, you only have to show your are a travel (show your backpack} and to smile....

<br />
:::In Italy, on the highway gas stations it's best to avoid anything remotely looking like police and to stay friendly with the people working at gas stations. By the way, talking about the North; let me know if you are close to [[Trento]] :) [[User:Guaka|Guaka]] 11:58, 16 July 2007 (CEST)<br />

'''Šiauliai''' is a town in northern Lithuania.<br />
<br />
It is an important crossing for railways and roads.<br />
<br />
A road, north-south bound, E77, connects [[Riga]] to [[Kaliningrad Oblast']].<br />
Another road, east-westbound, from [[Vilnius]] and [[Panevežys]], goes to the Baltic Sea, [[Palanga]]. The part after [[Šiauliai]] is an highway for about 25 km till the town of [[Kuršenai]].<br />
<br />
You can easily see on the map the best spots. They are all reacheable by micro-bus or bus.<br />
<br />
==To Joniskis, Jelgava, Riga==<br />
<br />
The spot is located along Tilzes gatve, right after the cross with Ausros gatve, on E77 road heading to Joniskis, Jelgava, Riga. <br />
Just walk, or take a bus/micro-bus to the northern part of the city. It's immediately after a gas station, near a bus stop, and on the right side you will see a road (Ausros gatve) and signs for other directions (Panevezys).<br />

<div>Like the other Baltics '''Lithuania''' is a nice country to hitchhike. There are many active hitchhikers.<br />
But when going from [[Latvia]] to [[Poland]] try to get a direct hitch to the Polish border - it's rather hard getting a car on this highway - it's built for quickly crossing Lithuania!<br />
<br />
==Highways==<br />
Like many countries in Eastern Europe hitchhiking on the highways isn't really forbidden. Often there are bus stops where many hitchhikers try to get rides.<br />
Don't be scared to walk next to a highway, especially if it's next to a city. The locals and even schoolkids do it, so drivers are used to it.<br />
<br />
==Communication==<br />
Get yourself a SIM card if you want to stay in touch with Lithuanians. The cheapest start at the equivalent of 30 eurocents at most kiosks.<br />

<div>'''Paris''' is the capital of [[France]].<br />
<br />
==Hitching Out==<br />
Like nearly every big city, it's difficult to hitchhike out of it. Paris is even more difficult, since the city, situated within the ring highway (''periférique'') is relatively small, but surrounded by endless suburbs.<br />
<br />
===A1 Northeast towards [[Lille]], [[Belgium]]===<br />
Take RER B to Stade de France and after walking a while you'll find a final traffic light where you can ask for the first gas-station on the motorway (around 2km away and NOT accessible from outside of the motorway)<br />
<br />
===A4 East, towards [[Metz]], [[Strasbourg]], [[Luxembourg]], [[Germany]]===<br />
<br />
<br />
The first gas station is close to RER A station Bussy St. Georges. From there you walk south for about 1 km (you can ask at the counter) along a bigger road, which will lead you to a roundabout. You can try from there, but the gas station is just a bit more than 2 km from there. You can walk on the grass field next to the highway. The gas station is called "La Ferrière". An alternate route to reach the gas station is to walk through the industrial zone of Bussy, right south of the railway, then reach the bridge over the highway and then follow on the grass until the gas station that is quite near. This avoids walking in the grass (annoying especially in winter and when raining) and instead most of the walk will be on a road, and you will save some time. You can follow [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=gare,+bussy+saint+georges,+france&daddr=chemin+de+la+rue+pavee,+bussy+saint+georges,+france&sll=48.831899,2.723193&sspn=0.01291,0.040169&ie=UTF8&z=15&ll=48.831814,2.726369&spn=0.01291,0.040169&t=h&om=0 this route] on Google Maps - the gas station can be seen right of the bridge on the south side of the map.<br />
<br />
The [[péage]] is not far from there, though it might be further than the closest highway exit.<br />
<br />
<br />
Another Option:<br />
Take the RER Line A (Red) in direction Boissy St Legere until the station Nogent Sur Marne (~ 2€). There, leave the station in direction Rue "Joinville" and follow the sign to the A4. Its about 30 minutes by foot. If someone stops ask if they can take you at least to the next gas station, there is no toll (péage) to get there so it's likely you will get at least to there.<br />
<br />
===A6 South, to [[Lyon]], [[Marseille]], [[Barcelona]], [[Italy]]===<br />
Porte d'Orleans, at the ''périferique'' seems okay, Metro Porte d'Orleans. There's a gas station, and a good spot at the traffic junction to the "périferique extérieur". Don't go with cars going into the suburbs. The next tollway or gas station takes about 50 km!<br />
<br />
Another solution is to catch a train in direction "Melun '''via''' Corbeil-Essonnes" to '''Villabé''' (1-2 trains per hour, departing from "Châtelet" or "Gare de Lyon" RER station, about 6€; at non-peak hours you might have to change trains at "Juvisy" (lines C and D). <br />
From there walk about 20 min along rue de la Gare and then to the right along rue des Lisses, cross the autoroute, you'll see the gas station from the bridge. --[[User:Daniel|Daniel]] 19:31, 13 January 2007 (CET)<br />
<br />
===A10 South to [[Orleans]], [[Bordeaux]], [[Spain]]===<br />
This road follows the route of the '''A6'''(see above) from Paris, then splits from it near Antony/Rungis. There's no gas station between Porte d'Orleans and the A6xA10 junction.<br />
<br />
Getting to this highway is not easy and will involve a train ride and some walking. <br />
The first gas station is situated near a village called Briis-sous-Forges. To get there you need to take either RER B to Massy-Palaiseau or RER C to Dourdan (around 7€) and from there to take the bus 91.03 to Briis-sous-Forges. It runs about 3 times an hour on weekdays, once an hour on Saturdays and does not on Sundays. The gas station is situated a couple of kms north of the village, to reach it you need to find Route d'Invilliers, a small local road parallel to the highway. Once there, when asking your ride make sure your driver takes the right road, as the A11 splits from it near. <br />
Another solution is to start hitching at Dourdan, take rue d'Etampes, and start at the roundabout. In Les-granges-du-roi take the D838 that will lead you to an entrance on the A10. Note, that it's a bit far for walking - around 10 km and the traffic is weak. Hitch there before the Péage with a sign "Orleans". <br />
<br />
Another, a bit more expensive but possibly faster, is to take a train directly to [[Orleans]] from Paris-Austerlitz station. The ticket will cost you about 18 €. North of the center passes an expressway which joins the A10 and has a Péage just before the junction. You'll need a sign saying "[[Tours]]" (if you go direction Tours>Bordeaux or "Vierzon" if you need to take the A20 towards [[Toulouse]]).<br />
<br />
===A11 South-west to [[Le Mans]], [[Nantes]], [[Rennes]] and all parts of [[Brittany]]===<br />
This highway splits from the A10 near Dourdan. There are several possibilities go get on this road: <br />
<br />
#The gas station at Briis-sous-Forges. Look at A10 section<br />
#Take a train to Rambouillet from Paris-Montparnasse (about 7€) and start hitching on the N10 south, until the A11 entrance<br />
#Take the train from Paris-Montparnasse to Chartres (12€) and start hitching from there.<br />

<div>'''Ireland''' is okay for hitchhiking. The recent economic upsurge might have changed this situation a little bit though.<br />
<br />
Hithchiking is the easiest and fastest way to travel in the countryside and in the less inhabitated regions, where public transportation such as train or bus is not available or it is not as frequent as a traveller might expect (one or two buses per day). You can easily get multiple lifts from one village to another for really short distances, and people are very welcoming.<br />
<br />
It might be therefore more difficult to get lifts along main national roads such as the [[Ennis]]-[[Galway]] going out from [[Ennis]], where traffic is heavy and the hitchhiking spots are not the best ones (no spaces along the road for letting cars stop).<br />

<div>'''München''' (''Munich'' in English) is Bavaria's capital.<br />
<br />
==Hitching out of Munich to Nürnberg or Berlin==<br />
Take the ''Ubahn 6'' to ''Studenten Stadt''. From there walk about 300 meter north on ''Ungeheuer Straße'' until you are under a bridge. You will see signs for the highways. This leads directly to the [[A9 (Germany)|A9]], a quick and easy route to [[Berlin]] or [[Nürnberg]]. For i.e. [[Köln]] it is best to stop at the ''Rasthof Nürnberg/Feucht'' as the freeways converge here.<br />
