===Going North ([[Luxembourg]], [[Holland]], [[Belgium]], [[Germany]]) ===
Take bus number 6 bus that goes from the city centre to 'La MEXE'. The ticket costs around 2 Euro. Get off at the stop beside the massive IKEA shopping centre and walk down the road until you see a roundabout and a ESSO service station nearby. Walk down the ramp until you reach both of the exits. One [[hitchhiker ]] got a lift within 10 minutes while standing between the ESSO petrol station exit and a [[motorway ]] exit. There is a lot of international traffic in this region.
Another option, is a 2 kilometer walk from the center. Walk along Boulevard du Pontiffroy towards North-West. Turn right on the Rue Ardant du Picq (Follow the signs saying Luxembourg/[[Thionville]]). After crossing two bridges you will find the ramp to the highway. You can hitch right before the ramp, on the bridge. See the map. This might be a bit problematic during rush-hour, but then it could be better to hitch with a [[sign ]] right after the roundabout on the end of Boulevard du Pontiffroy.
===Going South (France[[Nancy]], [[Dijon]], [[Lyon]], [[Spain]], etc.)===
I got a lift off a truck driver at an industrial zone roundabout just before the A31/E23 motorway, South West of Metz (less than 10 KM from city centre). It took me 60 minutes to get a ride at the Z.A.C d'Augny area. This can be reached by the number 101 bus from Metz City Centre for around 1.50 Euro
===Going East ([[Saarbrücken]], [[Kaiserslautern]], [[Mainz]], [[Frankfurt am Main|Frankfurt]])===
The [[peage ]] which is about 30 km away seems to make a good spot. Another option could be [http://maps.hitchwiki.org/?lat=49.11953590151249&lng=6.237015724182129&zoom=13&trip=0&view=3 this ramp].
