This shuttle would only be for Gransee -> camp. It's 2.5 hours round-trip to Berlin, which is very expensive considering gas is $5-6/gallon here. Not to mention a huge waste of time.<span><font color="#888888"><br>

I'm borrowing a car from a coworker (who is also going up to camp). I can not drive it, but we have a few people who can. We can provide an on-demand shuttle if necessary. It's a VW polo, so it's not super high capacity, but should be enough to get 3 people to camp at a time.<br>

It's very good that Orga is running these shuttle buses. I've actually done some cycling up by<br>
the Ziegeleipark, and it is definitely quite empty out there.<br>
<br>
I plan to pick a time on Wednesday that has a few people already, sign up for that shuttle, and<br>
go to camp. If somehow that fails, I'll just get a taxi, but I speak German. If you want to<br>
ride with, let me know.<br>
<br>
As for Zehdenick, it's a one-stoplight town. I almost got stranded there because the tiny train<br>
only had room for 3 bikes. We gaijin-smashed our way on somehow.<br>

There was also this blog post about shuttles from Berlin...<br>

One thing I'd like to remind folks is that once you start wandering out of Berlin, the<br>
number of English speakers drastically drops. People still tend to be friendly, but will<br>
get annoyed enough to ignore you if you continue to try to speak in English to them and<br>
they've made it clear that isn't something they're into. So if you do opt to grab one of<br>
the actually local municipal buses, be sure you've got an German speaker with you who can<br>
call to make the reservation and also be your spirit animal riding it.<br>
<br>
Additionally the local buses are more like a minivan and can only fit 8 people.<br>

that the bus from Zehdenick station to Mildenberg Ziegeleipark is<br>
on-demand and must be scheduled at least 90 minutes before using it.<br>
This is still regular public transportation.<br>
