💡 Good to know for this plan

~12.3 hours of daylight in September.
Milder conditions suit the public town circuits; harvest traffic and individual opening calendars still need current checks.
Light days: day 2, day 4 have one stop and time left over. Local tours and day trips are the way to fill them — each day links to what is bookable in its own town.
