I read on Ikea's website that this bus goes to the Ikea mentioned in the article; that is near the gas station [http://www.ikea.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/IkeaNearYouView?storeId=5&langId=-3&catalogId=10103&StoreName=berlin_waltersdorf]. So I took the bus, and as the map implies, I expected the bus would go all the way to the Ikea. However, the bus ended some 3km from the Ikea at the end of Berlin and at the end of a residential area. I think it did not go all the way because of the fact that when I did this it was a holiday. When I was approaching the mall, I saw a Metro and the petrol station in question on the other side of it. I do not know if it is possible to walk through the Metro because the entrance gates were closed. I ended up walking around and behind the mall which includes the Ikea, a Toys R Us, etc. Once there I walked over a bridge and towards the autobahn and I walked alongside the autobahn for 1km to reach the petrol station. I think if it is not a holiday there is a better way to get to this petrol station using bus #263.

Michendorf

I'd like to change the description of Rastätte Michendorf because it's defenetely not a hitchhiker's heaven! I've tried hitching to east twice and after 3-4 hours all I got was a ride back to Berlin, where I was coming from! I've heard the same kind of stories from other hitch hikers too. I've tried hitching with a sign, without a sign, asking the people...There's not that much traffic through the gas station and most of the people are old couples and families who stare at you with disgust on their faces or ignore you totally. There's a police station right next to the gas station, maybe people are afraid to pick up hitchhikers because of that, I don't know...DOES ANYBODY KNOW ANY BETTER HH-SPOT??

Well, it's a great place in direction west or south, never tried it to east though. Feel free to change it ;) --22:13, 19 March 2008 (CET)

Bus #263 from Grünau S-Bahn

I read on Ikea's website that this bus goes to the Ikea mentioned in the article; that is near the gas station [1]. So I took the bus, and as the map implies, I expected the bus would go all the way to the Ikea. However, the bus ended some 3km from the Ikea at the end of Berlin and at the end of a residential area. I think it did not go all the way because of the fact that when I did this it was a holiday. When I was approaching the mall, I saw a Metro and the petrol station in question on the other side of it. I do not know if it is possible to walk through the Metro because the entrance gates were closed. I ended up walking around and behind the mall which includes the Ikea, a Toys R Us, etc. Once there I walked over a bridge and towards the autobahn and I walked alongside the autobahn for 1km to reach the petrol station. I think if it is not a holiday there is a better way to get to this petrol station using bus #263.
