Opportunity to travel, "from Borgo alla Francigena", the new route recently inaugurated, which allows pilgrims who decide to leave from the railway station of Castelfiorentino to reach the Francigena.

We will meet in front of the Tourist Information Office of Castelfiorentino and we will climb towards the ridge of our hills to meet the official route of the Francigena and from here, accompanied by beautiful views and many historical testimonies, we will reach the majestic Pieve di Coiano.

Here there will be the meeting with the other groups and then continue together to Castelnuovo d'Elsa and attend the party.
