Plänterwald is a locality in Berlin's Treptow-Köpenick borough in the south-east of the city, named after the woodland of the same name on the Spree. Between the residential streets, the extensive forest and the site of the former Spreepark, many people need a plannable way to reach Berlin Brandenburg Airport (BER). A pre-booked private transfer picks you up at your Plänterwald address and takes you straight to BER – and back to your door after you land.
Airport transfer from Plänterwald to BER
For the trip from Plänterwald to BER, enter your pickup address, date and time in the booking form and see the available vehicle classes with the total price before you book. Instead of changing trains with your luggage at Plänterwald S-Bahn, you travel door to door to the terminal. Plänterwald lies in the south-east, well placed for the A113 towards BER; depending on traffic, time of day and route the drive typically takes around 25 to 40 minutes. This is guidance only – the real journey time depends on traffic on the day. See the full overview on Berlin airport transfer.
From BER back to Plänterwald
The transfer works in both directions. After landing you are met at BER and driven straight to your Plänterwald address – whether a flat on Neue Krugallee, a house near the forest edge or an address by the Spree. Enter your flight number when booking so the pickup can follow your actual arrival. In the forest- and waterside areas in particular, a fixed pickup with a name sign is a plannable alternative.

What makes Plänterwald distinctive
The locality is named after the Plänterwald, an extensive woodland on the Spree that, together with the adjoining Treptower Park, forms a long green corridor. Well known is the site of the former Spreepark, a former amusement park now being redeveloped while preserving some of its structures. On the shore stands the historic Eierhäuschen excursion restaurant. Otherwise Plänterwald is shaped by quiet residential streets around Neue Krugallee and served by Plänterwald S-Bahn station.

Hotels, dining and local destinations
Accommodation and business addresses are found mainly in the neighbouring localities and around the S-Bahn station – well suited to transfers in both directions, hotel to BER and BER to hotel. Cafés and excursion restaurants sit at the forest edge and on the Spree shore; if you combine a walk in the forest with a trip to the airport, simply enter the exact pickup address when booking. The Plänterwald also makes the locality a destination in its own right.
Families, groups and business travellers
Travelling as a group, everyone stays together in one vehicle, from a business car to a minibus for larger parties. In the forest- and waterside areas in particular, one vehicle for everyone pays off. The booking system shows which vehicle class is available for your passenger count and luggage; for larger groups see the Berlin airport minibus for groups. For business travellers, the addresses on Neue Krugallee are typical start and end points.
Plänterwald, Alt-Treptow or Baumschulenweg – which pickup address?
Plänterwald borders Alt-Treptow to the north-west, Baumschulenweg to the south and, across the Spree, Niederschöneweide to the east. North-west by the park begins Alt-Treptow; south lies Baumschulenweg. The exact address in the booking form always determines the transfer.
