💡 Good to know for this plan
- ~15.7 hours of daylight in June — the plan keeps days inside a realistic window.
- Hay-making season in Maramureș — scythes, horse carts and haystack pyramids for real, not for show — and the monastery frescoes at their most luminous.
- Heavy transit: day 3 (6h08) runs over 6 hours in transit. Around 4 days would keep daily travel comfortable on this route — or keep the dates and start each of those days by 08:00.
