Paul's Walks Through Europe

Walks through Spain, Italy and other places

The Via Francigena

The Via Francigena is one of the many pilgrim trails which cross Europe. This trail follows what is thought to reasonably close to the journey described by an Archbishop of Canterbury, Sigeric, in the 10th century as he journeyed to Tome to collect his pallium from the Pope.

I walked to last 650km or so of this route.

    Complimenti,e’davvero scritto bene !
    Ora curati i piedi e goditi delle belle vacanze con tua moglie.
    Utreya ! (antico saluto dei pellegrini)
    Un abbraccio
