One on my "to walk" list is the Cammino di San Benedetto - from Norcia through Subiaco to Montecassino. (Although being a close friend of the benedictines in Norcia I would personally walk it "backwards" so to speak). Definitely worth checking...
Thank you, they certainly would feature on our future list of choices :) And thank you for good tips!
Never heard of that one, looks interesting - from a quick image search, maybe more people are doing it on a bicycle? (Maybe I will save this...

I'd say the Invierno,. Or if you arent set on reaching SdeC maybe the Via Bayona which you could start in France in Bayonne or in Irun- enough pilgrim infrastructure, a mix of scenery
