    Jeder, der körperlich dazu in der Lage ist, sollte diesen Weg einmal laufen. Der Grund ist sekundär. Was habe ich erlebt? Unbeschreiblich • Pure Freude, Freiheit, Freundschaft, Vertrauen, emotionale Hochs und Tiefs, die eigenen Grenzen überschritten, wunderschöne Orte und Landschaften, Monotonie, Wetterkapriolen, innere Ruhe, totale Erschöpfung, Glücksgefühle

    Il Cammino Francese rappresenta il classico, sicuramente da fare almeno una volta nella vita. Il cammino è abbastanza duro, ben attrezzato dal punto di vista alberghiero; é un cammino ben segnalato e dove si trovano parecchi pellegrini.
