The best spot to go is definitely located near ''Viby Torv''. Take bus #1a, #6a, #4a, #200, or #14 towards ''Viby Torv''. Get out there, walk some meters back to the big traffic light and go to the left into the ''Viby Ringvej''. You'll also recognize signs announcing the motorway.

Most cars stopping only goes to Skanderborg, but if you want to get further south (Germany), only accepting cars to at least Vejle Nord is a good idea, as there are so many cars stopping here, that you will eventually get a ride to at least Vejle in a short time. Here it pays to be patient! | The best spot to go is definitely located near ''Viby Torv''. Take bus #1a, #6a, #4a, #200, or #14 towards ''Viby Torv''.

Aarhus (until 2010 and still commonly used: Århus) is the second-largest city of Denmark. It is also known as the city of smiles.
Hitchhiking out
North towards Aalborg, Frederikshavn
Good spot for cars going north on the E45 motorway, accessible by bus from Århus city center. Take the 14 bus towards Sabro and get off at Tilst Vestervej/Frømosevej (or later, but you'll have to walk back). Walk back to the roundabout and turn right to walk along the Viborgvej for 5 minutes. You'll come to a sliproad for cars going north on the E45 road. Walk along it and the road straightens out, so cars can see you from a long way off and have time to stop - or try at the beginning of the sliproad where cars are still slow.
North West towards Viborg, Thisted and North West Jutland
Take the same bus as above, walk to the roundabout and stand by right turn (Viborgvej). It's visible and there's a handy parking space just after for cars to pull into!
West towards Silkeborg, Herning and West Jutland
Take the 11 bus towards Harlev get off at "Tre Ege/Silkeborgvej" you can hitch a car from the busstop, make sure that they are going on highway 15, towards Herning
South towards South Jutland and Germany
The best spot to go is definitely located near Viby Torv. Take bus #1a, #6a, #4a, #200, or #14 towards Viby Torv. Get out there, walk some meters back to the big traffic light and go to the left into the Viby Ringvej. You'll also recognize signs announcing the motorway. Walk along this street for around 1 km, then the on-ramp for the motorway appears. There's enough space for you to stand on, easy to catch cars in all directions. Most cars are driving from the other direction, so it will be faster to cross the roads (you will have to cross a road where it is not allowed to walk by foot, and also go under a tunnel, but it takes only 2 minutes and it is really way more easy to catch a ride). Most cars stopping only goes to Skanderborg, but if you want to get further south (Germany), only accepting cars to at least Vejle Nord is a good idea, as there are so many cars stopping here, that you will eventually get a ride to at least Vejle in a short time. Here it pays to be patient!
East towards Copenhagen
Go to the harbour of Aarhus and have a look for the ferry towards Sj. Odde (full name Sjællands Odde). Wait in front of the terminals with a sign for Copenhagen, nearly everybody is going there. The drivers pay per car and not per person so it is free for them to bring you. You can find timetables for the ferry here: Mols Linien
If you don't like ferries you can also hitchhike via the motorway. In this case use the hitchhiking spot mentioned above.
