Nijmegen is a Dutch university city close to the German border and city of Kleve. Hitching here is fairly easy. There are three so called liftershaltes.

Hitching Out

North towards Arnhem, Utrecht, Amsterdam

At the verkeersplein near the Waalbrug (direction Arnhem) there is a liftershalte. However, at the gas station on the A325 almost everybody is going to Arnhem, so if you want to go beyond, you don't want to get a ride from someone merely going towards Arnhem (unlesss it's raining).

East towards Germany, Kleve

Near the official hitchhiking spot leading north, use the sliproad at this junction in the direction of Germany (the road is the N325, the street is Nieuwe Ubbergseweg). Don't bother walking further along the N325, there are no further good spots until the German border.

South towards Venlo, Den Bosch

At the Graafseweg (direction Venlo and 's-Hertogenbosch) there is a liftershalte (often used as a parking spot).

At the Annastraat, close to the university, there is a liftershalte.
