We want to walk the Via Magna Francigena in Sicily in June 2024. We would like to walk 10 to 15km each day. Are there places to stay between the appointed stages? Is there access to water? Thanks.

A late chime in! I walked through Castronovo di Sicilia last November, and except for the first stage, Palermo to Santa Cristina Gela there were no possibilities of on route intermediate stops. I walked past Santa Cristina Gela and stayed an Agrturismo 6k further to shorten the second stage a tiny bit. You certainly could stay in the vicinity of Monreale between Palermo and Santa Cristina, but outside of that the days will run to 20k stretches with nothing but glorious countryside to walk through. Pack lunch and carry lots of water! November was beautiful, dodged all the rain. June will be hot.
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc

Do you have any recommendations for accommodation? Per the list on the official site there seem to be quite a few options for each stage, but if there are any places you particularly liked, that would be good to know.
