== Hitching Out ==
General tip - since hitchhiking common enough in Iceland, you can always try asking the local bus drivers or at the tourist information offices for good spots. They might not have experience with hitchhiking, but they will with driving around, and will be happy to help.
=== Direction: North ([[Borgarnes]], [[Ísafjörður]], [[Akureyri]], [[Þingvellir]], [[Geysir]]) ===
It's not really possible to hitch out of the city center. Best is to take bus 15 (280 IKR) from the Hlemmur bus stop towards [[Mosfellsbær]] (Áholt Haholt station there is a rather good spot - very close to Route 1). There you can get out and start hitchhiking along the main road. If you want to go north (Borgarnes, Akureyri) it's also possible to take bus 57 towards [[Kjalarnes]] and get out there, but Akranes is further away from Route 1.
=== Direction: East along Route 1 (Vik, Höfn, etc.) ===
