A piedi - Vagabondare tra i Cammini d'Italia e d'Europa

It is said that walking has become a trend, but can the most natural and ancient thing in the world be called “fashion”? Organizing a journey means planning stages, studying distances, considering weather conditions and looking for accommodation between one stage and another. Once these questions have been resolved, all that remains is to walk and let yourself be guided by curiosity to learn about the history of the territory you are passing through and appreciate the landscape that slowly reveals itself. The charm of walking is shown step by step, when we begin to feel the effects and discover what incredible abilities our body has to adapt to the environment and to fatigue; and what wonderful encounters can be had along the way. During her wanderings along the paths of Italy and Europe, the author has many encounters: some reveal the history of the place, others tell her anecdotes that are not read in books, still others make her feel that special closeness that only the pilgrims of the world are able to share. This book is not a guide, it is an invitation to regain contact with our body and its capabilities. Divided by geographical settings, it takes into consideration multiple walking routes, from walks along rivers to the most challenging walks, describing their extraordinary and evocative beauty.
