Via Francigena
The Via Francigena is an ancient road and pilgrimage trail from Canterbury to Rome. Whether you are walking the complete trail or part of it, this route takes you through rural Italy allowing you to meet new people, cross unique landscapes, and taste the local cuisine. It is a truly immersive experience visiting authentic Italian villages with vibrant medieval piazzas and street-side cafes.
There are many highlights to be discovered such as crossing the Great St Bernard Pass, which takes you from the heart of the Swiss Alps across the Italian border into the Aosta Valley. Another fascinating part of the trail runs along the foothills of the scenic Apennine Mountains where you can sample the world-famous cured meats and cheeses of the Parma region. Some say that Tuscany is the most romantic Italian region, and you might agree when walking in rolling landscapes between vineyards and medieval hilltop villages.
