Hi
I'm currently 9 days into walking from Florence to Rome. The first four stages were pretty taxing. I have the new guidebook by Sandy Brown. It has useful information on accommodation but the red/white waymarks are more accurate than the walking notes imho.
Although steep elevations in the first stages the views of the Tuscan countryside more than compensated. The effort of reaching the Santuario de la Verna made our visit to this holy place all the more memorable. It is certain that Francis was there and it is truly a place of peace and tranquillity.
Immediately after the Santuario yellow arrows with the Tau cross started and the route has been clearly marked. Every day I've simply used the navigation app on my phone to find the way to our accommodation.
This route is stunning and I wish I'd walked it some time ago - I'll be back.
In terms of a Credencial, I simply made my own. Copy attached.
Regards
John
