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!

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!

Bumping a very old thread, sorry --- but I noticed by chance today that mapy.cz now has the Via Romea Germanica included in its routes.

Which is great !! It's been the only one of the major European pilgrimage routes missing from most maps.

Thank you so much for the information. I have been thinking about walking s coastal route in Italy and think the Via Romea Germanica has a dedicated coastal variant. Please let me know if you have more information. Thank you

Lots of information here, though no reference to a coastal variant http://www.viaromeagermanica.com/en/

Though this map of Emilia Romagna does show one possibility:

That German Via Romea only starts to have coastal variants after the three main routes (German, Francigena, Coastal/Ligurian/Aurelia) conjoin at about Lucca.

But yeah, from that point there's a variant via Pisa and that coast etc.

Pisa -- best tray pizza I have ever eaten !! And it's a lovely area thataways ...
