This awesome event will be led by Chip, who has made numerous trip and hiking expeditions to Italy. He also speaks Italian (enough to get by anyways).
Here are some preliminary thoughts from Chip:

* Plan for a minimum of 7 days on the ground in Italy, so those who can only take a week off can still participate.

It is ideal to arrive early on a Sunday (after flying overnight) and depart the following Sunday.

* Participants can extend on either end. I (Chip) plan to arrive early and stay later.

Rough itinerary:

* Saturday, depart US
* Sunday, arrive in Milano
* Monday, train from Milano to start the walk - Sentiero del Viandante (Lake Como area)
* Tuesday, walk
* Wednesday, finish walk
* Thursday, depart for Venice, stay overnight
* Friday, remain overnight in Venice
* Saturday, depart for daytrip to Verona; optional hike up to Madonna della Corona; return to Milano
* Sunday - depart for US

Opportunities to extend on either end. Extending would include going to Torino (Turin)
I picked Venice, because it is so unique. There are other places that could be selected.
The hike of 3 days allows for other activities.
