In the footsteps of Sigerico, two days on the Via Francigena
| TYPE | trekking |

| TIME | 2 days |
| DISTANCE | about 96 km (48 first day + 48 second day) |

IIn the past, the Via Francigena that led from Canterbury to Rome was used by thousands of pilgrims, while today it is one of the best-known cultural routes in Europe, guiding visitors along itineraries that are often unfamiliar, but rich in history and tradition, with hidden jewels of architecture. In the Canavese some stretches of the Via Francigena coincide with the Royal Turin Wine Trail, so it is not surprising that we stop off for a tasty “merenda sinoira” (combined snack and dinner) or lunch of traditional local produce, surrounded by Carema and Erbaluce vineyards.
