ON THE ROAD BETWEEN SANTIAGO AND JERUSALEM, VIA ROMA
http://www.camminafrancigena.it/it/page/daSantiago/aRoma/

Useful information for modern pilgrims traveling slowly between
Camino de Santiago and the Via Francigena.

In the Middle Ages, Santiago, Rome and Jerusalem were the three major pilgrimage
destinations in Europe.
Today you can repeat the experience of past travelers, and walk
between Santiago, Rome and Jerusalem, along the ancient routes.
The paths of the
Middle Ages are often lost, or have "evolved" into large highways.
In these cases alternative paths safer and more pleasant paths have been established.

We offer our channel dedicated to the Via Francigena
Www.camminafrancigena.it   http://www.camminafrancigena.it/it/


A) a small guide on the web, devoted primarily to modern travelers who do not disdain the use of technology to organize their paths, and that through the use of GPS and interactive maps available on the Web can rediscover old emotions.

The guide will be released in installments, each week. Please read the first two articles http://www.camminafrancigena.it/it/page/daSantiago/aRoma/

Via Francigena: The problem of walking into Rome is being resolved


One of the most important problems of the walkway was made access to Rome: in fact the height of the orbital pilgrims were forced to walk for about 800 m on a busy stretch
Triumphal street without sidewalks.
Thanks to teamwork Association Group of Twelve, Nature of Rome, the Municipality of XX Rome and the Lazio Region Department of Culture, it seems that finally is coming to a very interesting solution, which exceed the Ring Road on the Via Cassia, and the attraversarà dell'Insugherata beautiful green area.
