Hitchhiking out

North toward Owen Sound

Anywhere on highway 6 (Woolrich St) past Woodlawn Rd works pretty well. Careful as the shoulders are thin and sometimes non-existent. Obviously, the farther past Woodlawn you can make it, the better.

East toward Toronto, Montreal via the 401

South East toward Hamilton

Best to get as far out as the city as possible; there's a small hamlet called Morriston that's perfect. Tons of traffic getting off the 401 heading to Hamilton as well as a "carpool" parking lot where it you can solicit rides.

South West toward Kitchener (Ontario)
