Follow the coast line from Cannes to Nice, Genova, Livorno, Pisa, then Siena, Perugia, Pescara and down to Brindisi on Adriatic coast.

Dont you have a map? the tip is to avoid crossing the mountains, look at your map and choose where to go. Also find a good valley to cross from west to east coast, I do not have a map under my eyes now.

Hi RSFTO

Here you are the route I used 1 years ago.. with C172 in VFR.. take off from Albenga (LIMG) and crossing Italy on 8000ft.

I can even stop in LIPY or LIBP for fuel stop.

Ciao!
