Italian tourism<\/strong> is getting back on track, and it does it by\u00a0foot<\/strong>: this is what Dario Franceschini, Minister of Cultural Heritage, hopes proclaiming 2016 as the National Year of Walks<\/strong>.
\n2016 will represent a turning point for Italian tourism: no more hit-and-run holidays only in the cities of art, but a promotion of the entire territory of the peninsula, which holds still little known pearls of beauty<\/strong>.
\nInternational tourism is growing strongly and Italy must necessarily be one of the most popular destinations, given its diverse landscape, its history, its cities; but the goal of the project is to focus on sustainable tourism, not as one industry, but as the country’s vocation<\/strong>.
\nState, regions, municipalities, local authorities, public and private sectors join together for the first time to enhance those 6,600 kilometers (which can easily become a lot more!) of naturalistic, religious, cultural and spiritual paths<\/strong> that cross the entire country. More and more people travel looking for something more than just a vacation, they want to experience something, they want to travel slowly<\/strong> to understand more, discover new places, learn about the other.<\/p>\n

\"Walking<\/a>
\nIn the wake of the Jubilee year, that will be about poverty and pilgrimage, Italy must rediscover with its travelers its paths. The Via Francigena<\/strong> and the Way of St Francis are just examples of an infinite network of routes that, following the example of the Route of Santiago de Compostela, can represent the perfect opportunity to re-evaluate whole areas of Italy.
\nTo us it seems a great New Year\u2019s Resolution<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

But what are the routes that you can\u2019t miss next year? Here are our 10 favorites itineraries!<\/h3>\n

1.<\/strong> Travel to the discover of Monte Nerone and the Marches\u2019 nature, between the silence of the woods, the running water of the streams<\/strong> and charming villages. It is the route from Piobicco to Bacciardi<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
