Hitching Out

South (Düsseldorf, Köln, Frankfurt, A3)

From the main rail station take the subway line U11 (direction: Messe West/Süd/Gruga) or the tram line 101 or 107 (direction: Bredeney). Exit at Martinstraße and change to the bus line 142 (direction: Kettwig). Leave the bus at the station "Abzweig Flughafen", you will pass a ramp a bit earlier but don't get off there ("Polizeischule") nobody can stop there. At "Abzweig Flughafen" you walk to the ramp direction Düsseldorf and place yourself on the ramp (see on the map). Be carful, a lot of traffic but even a bit difficult to stop. It is a good spot, but there may be better spots in Essen. Quarim waited 20 min there.


Probably you can also hitch out of the city somewhere along the Ruhrschnellweg, the A40.
