Italy - Day 20: Roads, resupply and a train ride

The morning wasn't too cold, so I managed to leave at 7 am. It was a long descended into town, with some wonderful views in the morning. After the short forest bit, it was a long road walk, partly on very busy and always narrow and winding roads.

At Decathlon I checked out the backpacks and then decided against a new one. But I bought some straps to somehow fix my backpack, on case the hip belt will break entirely.

A quick stop to resupply and then I walked to the train station. The next part of the Sentiero Italia would follow the train line. Great idea, just that there is a train running (at least every hour) and there are plenty of tunnels and bridges - rather a lethal trail and not recommended. So I took the train instead! Perfect timing, since the next train was going right when I got to the train station and about 45 min later I stood in Piano Lago to continue hiking. The first 8 km were on a big (but wide) road, followed by about 3 km on a smaller road and then some overgrown path, before I set up my tent on a little hill.

Beautiful morning
