The entrance of the tunnel is directly situated along the M20 at exit 11a just North of [[Folkestone]]. It can also be accessed by the A20 (Ashford Road) which join the M20 at exit 11 and exit 12. This would the solution if you wish to join the tunnel by foot.
Bear in mind that even if some people might seem resistant to the idea of helping someone to cross the Channel into [[France]], many others won't be stressed with that idea, which is not exactly the case on the reverse journey. The crossing into the tunnel is paid per car, so a hitch-hiker does not incur any extra cost to the driver. The check-in is mostly electronic, so the driver doesn't need to speak with any ticket collectors or such who might conceivably ask questions re: about hitch-hikers.
There are many possibilities to try, what worked for me best was the last petrol station just before the port. It is just next to a traffic light and everybody comes pass here and might have to slow down or even wait for a minute at the traffic light...
