Grading

GRADE 3 - Daily walks that are along paths that are well defined and clearly marked. There are not many changes to the height walked each day. Some walks are long but can be shortened if requested in advance. The whole itinerary is well-marked by the official signs of the Via Francigena. As this section of the Via Francigena enters larger towns and cities than other stages, there are some sections that follow main roads with traffic. A good level of fitness is required and prior experience is advisable. As with all of our trips it is important that you are well prepared. We suggest that you undertake regular exercise – swimming, cycling, and jogging, three to four times a week for three months prior to your departure. ...more ...less
