Hitching Out
South towards Frankfurt am Main, Stuttgart
To hitchhike direction Frankfurt am Main or Stuttgart, the petrol station on the A3 is a really good spot. Lots of traffic there. From the main station take the line #66 direction Siegburg Bahnhof. When you are there, take the bus #509 direction Lange Lindenstrasse. Get off at Alte Poststrasse. Walk Alte Poststrasse along, all the way to the petrol station. it's about 5 to 10 minutes walk. update: bus 509 just runs 1 time per hour!! you can use buses 510,511,576 and 577. they are going more frequent . get off at "schwimmbad". go 20 meters back. walk "am stadion" and "bernhardstrasse" until "alte poststrasse".
South (B9, Remagen, Andernach, Koblenz, Mainz)
From the center walk to the Adenauerallee which leads into the Friedrich-Ebert-Allee, you are already on the B9, you can hitch from every possible spot here, where a car is able to stop. You won't get very long rides, but if you want to go to Koblenz or Mainz, it is the better choice to hitch this national road. Aware, the road is mostly two-laned, so make sure you will get dropped in a save spot (Remagen, or Bad Breisig) where the road is interrupted by traffic lights and where are bus stops where you can hitch on further.
