Baltic to the Tatras
Twelve days from Baltic brick to mountain air: Gdansk, Sopot and Malbork, Torun on the Vistula, Warsaw, Krakow with Wieliczka, then Zakopane under the Tatras. Orlen, GreenWay, Ionity and Tesla in the cities; plan rural and mountain legs carefully before the climbs — cool the battery, not the nerves.
Season: Best May-September. Tatras weather changes fast; book overnight charge in Krakow and Zakopane. Mountain legs need a cool battery and an early start after Krakow.
