Münster is a student city in Nordrhein-Westfalen.
In the city you'll recognize many students, and maybe the same amount of bikes. You can hire bikes directly next to the train station to get around. In 2004, Münster won the LivCom-Award for the most livable city in the world with a population between 200,000 and 750,000.
Hitching Out
West towards Steinfurt, Gronau, Enschede (Netherlands)
Find a suitable place to stand along Steinfurter Straße (B54). This is the road leading out of town to the north-west. There is a petrol station on the road, but a better option seems to be simply walking along the road itself with a sign saying "NL", and seeing what happens.
Get a ride at least as far as Steinfurt - there's a good petrol station there where you can find rides to take you the rest of the way.
North towards Greven, Emsdetten
Take the Regiobus #R51 or Stadtbus number 16 to direction Sprakel. Get out at Am-Max-Klemens-Kanal. There along the Sprakeler Strasse you will find a restaurant and a railway crossing. In front of the railway crossing (or on the parking area of the restaurant) is lots of space to stop cars that go north to Greven. <map lat='51.96880766656288' lng='7.62725830078125' zoom='11' view='0' float='right'/>
North, South towards Osnabrück, Hamburg, Ruhr Area (A1)
- Note: Line #1 is not stopping at Dorffeldstrasse until August 2008 because of road works. See this link (German) for further information.
If you want to travel along the A1, take the Stadtbus #1 towards Roxel Hallenbad and get out at the Dorffeldstrasse. When you started from the central station, the bus will ride around 30 minutes. This costs you EUR 2. At the Dorffeldstrasse, walk down the road towards the Nottulner Landweg, go left and after around 100 meter go right into the street Am Rohrbusch. Walk towards the bend to the left, but go straight into the little way (you'll find a dead-end street sign), and after some 20 meters you see a way going to the left ending directly on the service station Münsterland. Yey, you are there for going South! If you want to go North, just don't go into the dead-end street but walk left, cross the bridge and walk to the right just behind the bridge. After 500m you'll also be on the gas station towards the North.
