There is a private iCal and XML link for the calendar, but those are not addable to another Google Calendar account, the calendar ID (somecode@group.calendar.google.com) is needed for that. Any of the following would fix this issue:

  • Is there a way to get a private calendar ID?

So the full process would be:

How can one obtain an iCal link? Where is the dropdown? Perhaps you need to add a bit more info to meet up with the standard. –  Jacob Jan Tuinstra Mar 7 '13 at 10:17
Is this supposed to work even without "making this calendar public"? –  Gauthier Mar 26 at 15:07
@Gauthier doesn't it? –  MikeFHay Mar 26 at 19:09
It didn't until I made it public, not for google calendar users. It worked for Outlook users though. See there: productforums.google.com/forum/#!msg/calendar/e6uLPsOgOKg/… , it's all very confusing. –  Gauthier Mar 27 at 12:47

This is so weird, but it looks like it's correct. You can open the link in outlook but not google, who would rationally make that decision at google? Did you actually try the mirroring, and can you expand a bit on how to achieve this? –  Gauthier Mar 26 at 15:46
The "Private Address" field in the calendar settings says "This is the private address for this calendar. Do not share this address with other users unless you want them to see all the events on this calendar." It really sounds like it is meant to work that way when sharing this link... but it's not if the client also uses google calendar. –  Gauthier Mar 26 at 15:59
