* From the central bus station, take a minibus to ''Kekava''; from there find the main road '''E67/A7''' in the direction of Bauska. Just find a good spot - and good luck!
=== North towards [[Pärnu]] or [[Tallinn]] ([[Estonia]]) {{European Route Number|67}}, North East towards [[Cēsis]], [[Valmiera]] {{European Route Number|77}} ===Take a tram #1 or 6 #3 from the city center (for example, from a stop called ''Merķeļa iela'') to the final stop called ''Jugla'' - there you will find a road to the north, you will see there a petrol station, traffic lights, a bus stop (and "McDonald's" in case you want to go to the toilet). It is not To get to the best idea hitchhiking spot you will have to hitchhike after the speed limit road sign (70) - there, cars are already going quite fast, and stopping walk around 2km North East. You will see a car there can cause spot with a crash. Note, that about 750 metres farther from the traffic lights (after crossing the bridge) there is lot of space for a nice big [[rest area|lay-by]] where cars car to stop. If And most probably some other hitchhikers, so youwon're heading to [[Estonia]] have an ''EST'' sign - t miss it will make all go a lot quicker.!
Another Better option is to take bus #1 ([http://saraksti.rigassatiksme.lv/?a=p.routes&transport_id=bus&t=xhtml&l=en#2595 see route]) towards "Pansionāts" and get out at stop "Brīvdabas muzejs" which is first stop after lake that you'll see lake on the rightside. Walk few steps back and you'll be exactly at the same spot as mentioned above. Beware that most of the traffic is going North East so it might happen that you wait some hours (might happen... road there has 3 lanes) to get a 3km ride to the right road if you are going North. So it's up to you to decide. Maybe better option is to walk those few km already after you arrive at the spot. To hitchhike on normal, single lane road.
=== South-East towards [[Daugavpils]] and [[Belarus]] {{European Route Number|22}} ===
