Very difficult
Departure from Venaco (Haute-Corse)
From the Vecchio valley, the climb to Monte Rotondo (2,622 m), Corsica's second highest peak, offers a 1,600 m elevation gain in a spectacular setting. The trail starts under the Laricio pines, then climbs towards Bocca Tribali (1,590 m), revealing ridges and valleys. Beyond, Lavu Bellebone, a small glacial lake nestled in a mineral cirque, invites you to take a contemplative break. The rest of the climb is steeper, on rocky terrain where you may find yourself out of breath. At the summit, the 360° view takes in the gulfs, peaks and wild soul of Corsica, before you return to the valley.

Departure from Corte (Haute-Corse)
The second stage of the “Circular Tour of Two Vallées” takes you into one of Corsica’s wildest and best-preserved valleys: the Tavignanu Valley.
From the A Sega mountain hut, situated on the banks of the Tavignanu, the path follows the river and descends gradually through a dense forest where Laricifolius pines and holm oaks grow side by side. Along the way, you’ll enjoy numerous viewpoints over the steep-sided gorges and pools of crystal-clear water that dot the river. Halfway along the route, you can stop for a break at the Rossulinu Footbridge before continuing on the less steep but equally spectacular section of the trail, which will gently lead you towards Corte.

Departure from Corte (Haute-Corse)
This hike is a variation (in terms of the route and starting point) of the Mare à Mare Nord. We set off from Corte, a very pretty town, and arrived at the Gulf of Porto.
We stopped at the Refuge de Sega, the Gite d'Albertacce, the Col de Vergio (where we stayed for two days to explore Lake Nino) and Evisa before arriving in Porto.
