Miranda, walking the Appian Way is going to be an amazing adventure. It will be a lot easier if you speak Italian. Also, some parts of the route are boring industrial areas. I would suggest you take a train to get through some of the less-scenic areas. Good walking routes: Rome to Terracina, Terracina to Formia (one of my favorites), Formia to Minturno and most of the area around Minturno. Benevento into the Apennines to Venosa. After Venosa the land is very barren (lots of grass, not many trees) so you’ll want protection from the sun and rain. If you go in May the land will be covered with wildflowers–this is more beautiful than I can describe. Gravina and Matera were two of my favorite stops in southern Italy. Good luck!

I love biking but I am choosing to walk the appian way in Italy do you have any suggestions or anything that would be helpful to know before I go?

Igor, it sounds like you’ll have an incredible bike tour! There are a lot of campgrounds all along the coast of Italy, and they’ll generally cost you around 7 euros a night. If you can’t find one, stealth camping is usually OK as long as your campsite is neat and you clean up when you leave. Good luck, and let me know how it goes!
