__NOTOC__
'''{{FULLPAGENAMEE}}''' (or Lucerne) is a city in [[Switzerland]]. It's a beautiful old but modern city with a nice lake. On summerdays it's great to sit at is located on the lake with a drinkA2, watching the city main route between [[Germany]] and the mountain around it[[Italy]].
It's located just at the A2== Hitching out ===== North towards [[Zürich]] {{European Route Number|41}}, the main route between [[GermanyBern]] and , [[ItalyBasel]], which will make it easy to hitch for you.{{European Route Number|35}} ===
== Hitching Out ===== Northwards [[Zürich]], [[Bern]], [[Basel]] ===The motorway starts at ''Militärstrasse'' and there is plenty of space to stop. Cars will see you very rather late, but it still works pretty good. The next nearest bus station stop is ''Kasernenplatz'' but you . You can also there walk from the town center. The best option is to cross the road to stand on the highway in front of the bus stop area (right before "Kasernenplatz", after the corner); cars are certainly more willing to stop there than further straight.
You can also take any bus from ''Kasernenstrasse'' to ''Emmenbrücke Sprengi''. Leave the bus and head north for 200 m and you find a gas station in all directions: http://maps.google.at/maps?hl=de&ie=UTF8&q=luzern+emmen+sprengi&fb=1&gl=at&hq=emmen+sprengi&hnear=Luzern,+Schweiz&cid=0,0,740151577626375699&ll=47.081608,8.274218&spn=0.006371,0.016512&t=h&z=17 === Southwards South towards [[Lugano]] {{European Route Number|35}} ===Get Take a bus to the stop ''Grosshofstrasse bus stop '' on ''Obergrunderstrasse '' and stand by the bus ramp with a sign. The problem is that lanes are splitted split quite early before getting onto motorway A2 and , the outer lane goes going to Bern or Zurich and the inner lane goes going southwards. It will be difficult for cars on the inner lane to pull out and pull in when the traffic is busy. It is better to follow the motorway direction, get to bus stop ''Wiggenhof on Grabenhof strasse ''Grabenhofstrasse'' and hitch southwards from there. The Wiggenhof stop is only good for weekdays though - on weekends nobody is going towards Lugano from here and you might get stuck for hours.
