In Latium Region it is possible to distinguish two main macro-areas of Francigena Routes separated by Rome, being exactly in the middle of the region. However, the present work will mainly focus on the Southern area, given the fact that the case study as well as the enterprise incubation within Cultour plus are situated in Southern Francigena beam of routes.
Overall speaking, Francigena Route, from North to South still requires the Region to further enhance the unity of it, pushing for a greater number of facilities and road accessibility/security infrastructures, guaranteeing a common code to host pilgrims and walkers.
