Hey so I'm looking at coming to Brento around Easter for a few weeks. A search of the forums shows there's always ppl around at that time, which is great.

I did a quick search of the weather there then, and it looks pretty damn good.An average of almost 20 degress C last year. I was expecting wintery conditions (I'm from Aus so no idea).

By what I've seen, just wondering if it's all systems are go by then, in regards to the bus running etc...because the weather looks so good.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, if there's enough jumpers and jumpable conditions, they run all year long.

On average two loads in the morning (Bus departs at Bar Parete Zebrata around one hour before sunrise) and one in the evening.

Evening loads are more prone to windy conditions.

And of course you can hike yourself... go to San Giovanni by car and then it's a 45min hike (or longer if you're not fit) to the exit. Getting the car back takes some time with another car.

The best way I've found to do this is to bring a couple new guys who only have one rig each, then bring two rigs yourself and make the new guys alternate driving while you jump on every load. ;)

Perfect! Just the answer I wanted :)

Be aware of the daily Ora wind. Find out about about. Ask.
Take care,
