Facilities: Do not depend on a specific external stop unless its current operating status is confirmed.

Fuel: Confirm fuel before leaving Marloth Park or use a verified external filling station before entering the park.

Main limitation: N4 travel increases the total day length and is affected by traffic, road works and the selected Marloth Park exit.
