We have traveled to Umbria in April and found the days warm but the evenings cool. We use carry on luggage too, so we pack lightly...2 or 3 pants and 2 or 3 tops, undergarments, socks, a jacket (not a raincoat) and umbrella, if needed, were all we found necessary. Umbria is beautiful. Enjoy your trip.

Yep, correct. Pack layers, and make one of them a light, rain jacket. I use a Nike dry fit and I use it for any weather than is windy, cold, and wet. I layer with shirts and sweaters. Enjoy Umbria, it is a great place and April will be enjoyable regardless of the weather. I never worry about weather, I just go prepared. Turns out weather if frequently one of the things we remember about our trips, in a good way (a good memory anyway, even though at the time it might not have been totally enjoyable).

If you're in a hill town it might be windy-rain jacket & layers will help! Depending on your personal tolerance of cold, you might want to pack a pair of gloves. Enjoy your trip-Umbria is beautiful in spring!

Thank you for your advice for packing light, we have been to Italy many times and April can be very erratic.
