The final week in Italy continues along the Via Emilia passing by Imola, the home of Ferrari and of the San Marino Grand Prix before arriving at the first of the numerous historic towns we will walk through, Faenza.

From here we walk onto the city of Forli and finish day two in Forlimpopoli with its imposing 16th-century castle. We then continue to Cesena and then to Santarcangelo di Romagna, home to the International Festival of Contemporary Arts. Just west of Santarcangelo lies the holiday resort of Rimini and to its south the principality of San Marino. 

We now leave the Via Emilia and follow the coastal roads along the Adriatic, walking to the port of Cattolica and then the longest day's walk so far, along the coast to Senigallia.

From there we travel to the port city of Ancona, the final part of our walk through Italy. In Ancona we will be received at the historic pilgrimage centre, the Ancona Cathedral, and relax before heading on to the next part of our journey.
