Lyon

Lyon is a big city in the South East of France. The autoroute du soleil is passing through it, so in Summer there are huge amounts of traffic.

Hitching Out

South towards Orange, Nîmes, Marseille

It can take a little while to get a ride, but at least there's a nice place to wait. There's plenty of traffic heading to Valence and Orange, which is a good place to continue further East or West along the coast.

Getting onto A46 (Lyon Bypass)

There's a big service area on the Lyon bypass (Contournement de Lyon) highway. There are 2 gas stations, one on each side of the road

Directions: Southbound: A7 - Marseille, Montpellier

              A47 - Saint Etienne

Northbound: A6 - Dijon, Paris

              A42 - Genève
The place on the map

I can't give directions from this place to the town, since i was dropped there by someone heading to the city, but got a ride in about 1/2 hour (in nov. 2006) --Daniel 20:21, 13 January 2007 (CET)
