Time of past OR future Camino
Del Norte
Hello all, I am looking for some expert advice. I will be traveling solo and female. I am not totally sure where exactly to start though my tentative plan is to fly into Milan and start somewhere near there. I don't need to make it all the way to Rome on foot. What are your recommendations? I really just want to cover some land, see some sights, and eat delicious food for fairly inexpensive. I did part of the Camino del Norte back in 2019. I walked for about a week and I am thinking probably the same amount of time for this. Are there certain stretches that I can't miss?

I am mostly nervous about lodging locations. Is this fairly easy to figure out once you get there or would this be something I should plan ahead of time?

Thank you in advance for your recommendations!

Hi
Milan is a major rail junction and it'd fairly easy to take a train to a range of points on the VF. So a week could cover the Aosta valley or train to Fidenza and head over the mountains from there.

As for accomodation and a quick overview might be good to look at Gronze-
