Itri to Gaeta: how far past the beach?
From Corso Appio Claudio in Itri to the beach at Serapo, the association puts the walk at about 13 km. Gaeta Cathedral is another 2.8 km on. If you sleep near the beach, decide whether to walk that stretch tonight or tomorrow before you start stage 11.
Read the Itri to Gaeta stage map
Appy’s track measures 15.7 km to one decimal place. The stage map shows the shape of the walk into Gaeta. On a street map, look up the cathedral and the address of your accommodation to measure the extra walk.
Gaeta to Minturno via Formia and Scauri
Starting at Gaeta Cathedral, the association’s stage table puts Formia at kilometre 8 and Scauri at kilometre 21. From Scauri you still have 7.1 km to Minturnae. If you stop in Scauri for the night, add the distance from the trail to your accommodation separately.

Where does the Minturno walk finish?
Appy calls the stage “Gaeta → Minturno”. The 28.1 km finish at the archaeological site of Minturnae near the Garigliano river. Give that site as the meeting point if someone is collecting you. If you are taking a train, check the onward distance to Minturno-Scauri station separately.
