No matter which town or village you go to, you can find comfortable and reasonably priced hotels. You can get maps and walking advice suitable for all kinds of physical strength from any tourist center. Walking into the mountainous area, you will find a trail with clear road signs and many people walking through it, and there are a lot of mountain cottages. You can spend the night in a simple house, or you can stop to rest and recover your strength before moving on. Towns and villages are usually located on hillsides, so the path quickly extends to high places (you can take a cable car in summer, so you can follow the steep path without much effort). Every hill is marked on the map (the route number is designated by the Italian Alpine Club), but the road signs themselves are very clear, and maps are rarely used. Every town has outdoor shops selling boots and professional equipment.
