I've done 3 different pilgrimage walks in Italy. Don't expect it to be like in Spain but you’ll have a wonderful experience for other reasons. Not the destination which is a large city, but the journey, food, sites, countryside, history and people.
I’m walking along the 300km Caminno di San Benedetto which starts in the birthplace of Saint Benedict and ends at Montecassino where the great abbey that he founded in the 6th century is located . I’m posting in my blog every day.

I keep hearing about your fellow Canadian Wilma Foyle who was part of the first group to walk the new Via Romea Germanica a few years back at 82 years of age. She’s famous here!
Hi
For anyone thinking about walking this route, I’ll be posting lots of photos on my blog over the next 6 weeks (April - May 2018) that will give you an idea of what it’s like!
