'''Stadsregio Arnhem-Nijmegen''' is the second biggest urban conurbation in the Netherlands outside of the [[Randstad]] in terms of population, and one of the most spread out, over 1000 square kilometres.
== Hitching Out Hitchhiking out ==
For more information, look at the respective city pages. Hitching from [[Nijmegen]] to [[Arnhem]] is ridiculously easy, the other way is much harder.
=== To [[Germany]] ===
Best done from [['''[[Nijmegen]]''']]. There is much drug tourism going on in [[Arnhem]], and as a result not many people will pick up hitchhikers. Besides that, the Nijmegen motorways are much easier to reach by public transportation. Try the [[A73 (Netherlands)|A73]] ramp at '''Brabantse Poort'''. From here there are lots of cars going to [[Weeze]] Airport, because that's closer to Nijmegen than any other major city.
=== To the south ===
Also best done from '''[[Nijmegen]]'''. Try the bus stop at Graafseweg/Neerbosscheweg. This is where most cars from Nijmegen pass by before deciding to go either towards [[A50 (Netherlands)|A50]] for [[Eindhoven]] or [[A73 (Netherlands)|A73]] for [[Venlo]]/[[Maastricht]].
=== To the [[Randstad]] ===
Can be either done from '''Nijmegen ''' or '''Arnhem'''. Use [[liftershalte]] near Waal Bridge in '''Nijmegen''' city centre, or take the access lane for junction 26 on the northern outskirts of [['''Arnhem''']]. For [[Rotterdam]], the '''Nijmegen ''' spot yields much better results.
=== To the north and east===
Best done from [['''[[Arnhem]]''']]. Use above access lane at junction 26, but this time in direction [[Apeldoorn]], or go to '''Knooppunt Velperbroek''' in east Arnhem first if starting from [[Nijmegen]]. '''When starting from Nijmegen, make sure to turn down every ride that isn't going to Velperbroek''', (or further on [[A50 (Netherlands)|A50]] northbound) because otherwise you'll find yourself in the situation of having to take public transportation across Arnhem.
