Aandycohn replied to the thread Magna Via Francigena - April 2024.Nick, Your pictures are exquisite. Thanks for posting them. Our last few days have been (mostly) terrific. We avoided the rain yesterday, but it was threatening, so we opted for the alternative you alerted us to out of Campofranco. But once...

A@andycohn, how have the last couple of days been? It absolutely poured in Rome today so hopefully it’s drier for you down there! Meanwhile, I have published an album of my favourite photos from the MVF (many of which I posted here too) on...

Like.
I wrote this long-winded post to address some of the recent concerns, comments and questions regarding this route, and I hope some might find it useful. I flew from Dublin to Lourdes on the 18th of April, took the train to Pau and started walking... -
Aandycohn replied to the thread Magna Via Francigena - April 2024.No, we're doing a few really leisurely stages. In Acquaviva Platani now -- only 10 k but (yet another) steep climb into town. Now chilling at the fantastic B&B Acquaviva, with no plan for the day other than to sit out on our little balcony and...

Aandycohn replied to the thread Great Saint Bernard Pass Hospice.Good point. I crossed in late-ish September, 2022, and there were maybe 10-15 people staying there altogether. Undoubtedly, it's more busy in high summer.
