The Camino is well marked, with the presence of the stylized yellow shell symbol and various signs indicating the way. You travel ancient connecting paths between small villages and old roads that led to the sanctuaries, pilgrimage destinations. There are short stretches of low-traffic roads.
As you might imagine, the passability of routes in a mountain environment is strictly linked to prevailing conditions and depends on natural phenomena, environmental changes, and weather conditions. For this reason, the information contained in this sheet may have changed. Before leaving, check the status of the path by contacting the managers of the refuges on your route, alpine guides, visitor centers of natural parks, and tourist offices.

Equipment
Anyone who sets out on foot and wishes to reach their destination without problems should wear a good pair of comfortable shoes, preferably with a sculpted sole (such as Vibram) and ankle protection (like hiking boots), but in which the foot is firmly held to avoid blisters or, worse, the risk of a sprain. It is also advisable to have a walking stick (or even better, telescopic poles) to help, especially on more challenging sections.
