To Będlewo from Poznań
To Będlewo from Poznań
We will organize a complimentary shuttle from the Poznań Główny Railway Station (in downtown Poznań) on August 21st and back on August 26th. On August 21st, we plan to have a large coach (leaving around 6PM), and a small minibus or taxis to accommodate for late arrivals (leaving around 9PM, the minibus will not make it for the dinner). Departure times on August 26th will be established during the workshop according to participants’ needs.
If taking the shuttle is not compatible with your schedule, we recommend taking a taxi (160 PLN if preordered through Będlewo Palace; 1EUR = 4.78 PLN, on 18.07.2022).

Google Maps is generally helpful in planning a multimodal trip as it covers both intercity trains and local transport in most Polish cities. The official train schedule can be found at http://rozklad.pkp.pl/en, which will redirect you to an appropriate carrier for online ticket sales. https://jakdojade.pl/ provides a comprehensive route planner for local transport, with online ticket sales through their mobile app in most Polish cities (including Poznań).
If you arrive to Poznań several hours before the shuttle bus departs, you may leave your luggage in one of the lockers on the station and take a walk to the city center.
The tickets for Polish trains can be purchased at https://www.intercity.pl/en/.
