Driving to Esino

We're based in Valencia, Spain and our plan is to attend. By car. It's only 14 hours from here to there. From Barcelona I think it's some 10 or 11 hours drive. Munich, Lyons, Marseille... are even closer. If I were in most of France and Germany, I would definitely drive to Esino. As I don't think we're the only ones that can drive some hours, I think you should take into account the possibility of quite some people going by car. B25es (talk) 19:31, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks B25es. For people arriving by car and staying in Esino we planned parking outside the village (to avoid occupying the entire event area with parked cars). Here the parking plan, which needs of course to be more precisely detailed and we will make a information and a map to direct people to the right parking. I imagine there will be not more than 100 cars of daily guests (people who come for the day for example from Milan area) and around 100 cars from European participants (plus the cars of the residents, volunteers and the cars/busses we use for the event). I have changed the page: you are right that also from Spain, France and Germany is pretty convenient by car. Thanks --iopensa (talk) 08:15, 23 January 2015 (UTC)
