'''Option 1:''' Go to ''Alcântara'' (Alcântara train station or bus e.g. #720, #52, #24, #773) and walk to the acess of the motorway that leads you directly to the bridge over the river direction south via the A2 motorway. Walk up the on-ramp and immediately before the motorway there'll be a little parking space where cars can stop [http://www.liftershalte.info/?lat=38.70942420843887&lng=-9.177961349487305&zoom=18&trip=0&view=1]. Traffic on the bridge is huge so the cars aren't going that fast.
'''Option 2:''' Take the ''Fertagus'' train, at ''Entrecampos'' or ''Sete Rios'' train station for example, cross the river and get off at ''Foros de Amora'' [http://www.liftershalte.info/?lat=38.621556314953445&lng=-9.130969047546387&zoom=17&trip=0&view=1]. From there just walk under the A2 motorway and get to the petrol station right next to it. Station is surrounded by net fence together with highway motorway so in case to enter it is needed to ring the bell next to gate leading to backup.
This will be the first petrol station on this motorway and from there you can ask people which way they headed and take off towards south or east. But as a lot of drivers in this station are going in different directions or very short distances, it is good to take first ride to service station in Palmela where it is much easier to get longer ride.
=== West: [[Sintra]] ===
Go to the train station ''Sete Rios'' (by train or by metro to ''Jardim Zoologico''). Leave the train station in direction of Campolide (South) and when you take the southern exit go straight (follow the street over some kind of bridge), turn right at the crossing and you will see the highway motorway in front of you. Go behind the bridge to the roundabout, you'll see the directions towards Sintra. Plenty of space and cars go not to fast. You will get on the IC19 going all the way to Sintra. If you don't get a direct lift try to hitch from exit to exit.
