This morning the San Lazzaro Italian Corps, representative of Romea Strata x Tuscany and Lazio, began positioning the first trail arrows along the new route.
The previous project envisaged that the Romea and the Francigena would follow the same lines. Currently the stages from Fucecchio and Buonconvento descend through the Val D’Orcia and Lazio, overlapping only in some sections.
Viterbo has become, precisely because of its great history, but not only because it is the City of the Popes, a crossroads of these Jubilee routes.
The new arrows have been positioned from Monte Jugo to Poggio Nibbio where in fact the Romea continues towards Ronciglione.
The Romea is an ancient trading route that dates back to the dawn of time, when in the mid-second millennium BC, Eastern “Europe” traded amber and iron to the Mediterranean. Historical path therefore and also ecumenical, as crossing Europe from Tallinn to Rome unites Christians, Orthodox and Protestants
The online guide to the tracks is already published on Romeastrata.org, while the paper guide being published is published by Terre di mezzo and will be on sale from March 2025.
The peculiarity, beyond the track, is that each stage will find a subdivision by topic: culture, nature, spirituality, with curiosities, history, events.
Viterbo, chosen as the leader of Lazio for this project, is now a reality, one month after the opening of the Holy Door, and once again at the center of the 2025 Jubilee.
