[QUOTE="Dir(kB, post: 675356, member: 84234"] Hello Barbara. As for the GPS tracks you can download them from the official Francigena website: [URL]http://www.viefrancigenedelsud.it/en/resource/statictrack/category/francigena-del-sud/[/URL]. It's also possible to print these sections. On this website you will also find information about guide books. From Rome to Benevento it's also possible to walk an alternative route which is signposted with a red fish symbol. I heard from other pelgrims that this one has more unpaved quied paths. I decided to walk this one. The guide book about this section is written by Monica D'atti (Terre di Mezzo). Actually the book is describing the whole Francigena del Sul but from Benevento on it's nearly the same route as the "normal" route. There are some pilgrim accomodations on the "del Sud" but expect to be sleeping in more commercial accomodations. Mostly I searched on booking.com and Airbnb. The accomodations mentioned in the guide books are difficult to book. Sometimes they are not existing anymore or you have to book them a couple of days in advance. Therefore speaking a bit of Italian is a must on the "del Sud". So try to learn some basis phrases. Asking in a local bar has given me also some nice and cheap places to sleep. The locals are very friendly and willing to help. On the section between Bari and Brindisi (the beach section..) there are a couple of campsites so if you carry your own tent, like I did, this is also a cheap possibility. Like I wrote before the "del Sud" was for me not a "traditional" camino with breathtaking nature and meeting other pilgrims. The villages you pass are beautiful but in between it's an awful lot of asphalt. The northern part till Rome is, in my humble opinion, a far more interesting part. Here you will also meet other pilgrims. Well (luckily) not that many as on the camino to Santiago..... [/QUOTE]
