More and more people write to me for suggestions on how to follow the path that I described on this site two years ago. It will take me a while, but I think it is useful to provide the GPS tracks of my journey: some days I was wrong, others went off the GPS … In short, we have to work on, but then you will find them all here, ready to download. We start from the Italian side: from Milan to Briançon.
ATTENTION: when using the GPS you may not switch off your brain! Remember to always pay attention to what you are doing and where you put your feet. The best judge of the path to be followed must be your head, not GPS.

Low variant: pay attention to the exit of Susa, because the original location (and reported) of the Via Francigena, passes into the yard of the TAV (path of Magdalene). For safety, it is best to follow this variant … to me it went well but others have lost a lot of time to explain what we were doing there.

PS: a big thanks to Luca bass that gave me a good feedback on the viability of the tracks in Val di Susa!
