Seven days along "Via del Volto Santo"
A path on ancient pilgrimage routes in Garfagnana, among sanctuaries and symbolic places of the area, through villages, history and traditions
We offer you a seven-day holiday package, on the way through less famous itineraries and streets to be rediscovered. We will follow ancient pilgrimage routes, following the steps of saints who crossed or were born or lived in those lands.
We will walk to discover the places and the figures that have marked the history and devotion of the area.
The walk of the Holy Visage was born in Pontremoli, and crossing the Garfagnana it leads to Lucca, where the relic of the Holy Visage is venerated since 752. It is one of the many paths that in the Middle Ages composed the Via Francigena and now it is accessible again, through places, landscapes, history, architecture, typical cuisine and an ancient tradition of hospitality.
During our journey, we will travel through the part of the route that from Argegna leads to Lucca, for a total of 5 stages in 5 days.
