=== Northwest towards [[Hamburg]], [[Rostock]] and [[Scandinavia]] {{Autobahn|24}} ===
For hitchhiking to Hamburg prepare a cardboard sign with "HH" written on it, which is the license plate sign for cars from Hamburg and understood widely. "HRO" stands for Rostock by the way.
If you are going further than Dresden (e.g. [[Czech Republic]]) on the A13, also take a look on the [[Dresden]] page.
'''You may also try [[Berlin#Rasthof Michendorf|Rasthof Michendorf]]''' for getting lifts east or southeast.
''There are 2 ways of entering the upper mentioned motorways:
''
==== [[Airport]] Berlin-Schönefeld ====
It's possible to hitchhike at the on-ramp next to the [[airport]] ''(Flughafen) Berlin-Schönefeld''. You can reach the [[airport]] with S-Bahn S9 and some [[Deutsche Bahn|DB]] trains. You can not only find lifts mostly towards Dresden or Poland. It's probably the best spot within reach by S and U-Bahn to hitchhike to Poland. Stand right before the ramp with a 'PL' sign. The ramp is pretty small, but you can walk up some 15-20m behind the ''Autobahn'' sign so people can stop along the side of the road safely. Watch the speed of cars coming from the right hidden corner onto the ramp, it's a tricky on-ramp, can be dangerous so hitch carefully here.
:One hitchhiker waited here for 6 hours without success. Have a look at the [[Talk:Berlin|discussion page]].
