Albertacce walks

This third stage takes us to the Col de Vergio, the highest point of the day, which marks the start of the descent to Porto. We will pass by the beautiful Radule waterfall and its pools, which are perfect for swimming.

Loop starting from the Genoese bridge at Albertacce, first following the Viru, a tributary of the Golo, to the Moulin de Muricciolu, then a pretty balcony path above the Golo to the footbridge over the Golo.

This circular will take you to the highest point in Corsica. It is a difficult hike, but it offers unrivalled views of the surrounding area.

Second day of the hike between Corte and Porto. The trail begins by climbing up to Bocca Arinella, where we discover our destination: after Lake Calacuccia, the village of Albertacce.

An ascent to a high-altitude lake in a beautiful mountain setting. A varied route that starts in a pine forest, continues through rocky terrain and ends in the middle of pastures. This hike is an alternative to the much more popularGR®20route, which starts at the Col de Vergio.

Fifth stage ofthe GR®20, pushing on to the Col de Vergio, we are doing two 6-hour stages rather than one 4-hour and one 8-hour stage, and we will be using the accommodation at the Col de Vergio.

The sixth stage of ourGR®20. We pass by the beautiful Lake Nino. It is a long hike in terms of distance, but the elevation gain is easier than on previous days.

After our break at the Col de Vergio, we head back towards the sea. During this stage, we will cross the beautiful Aîtone forest with its swimming pools and paved paths in some places.

A very beautiful hike that allows you to walk along the ridges and discover Lake Nino in a beautiful valley surrounded by stone mountains.

View of the Gulf of Porto from the ridge, Paglia Orba mountain (the most beautiful in Corsica), Capu Tafunatu and its hole below the summit. A beautiful hike on theGR®20.

A legendary place in Corsica: Lake Nino and its pozzines. You have a magnificent view of the Cintu massif, the Gulf of Cargèse, and if you are lucky, you will encounter beautiful wild horses.

The highest peak in Corsica (2,706 metres) can be reached from the Haut-Asco resort after a difficult climb over rocky terrain reminiscent of the volcanic origins of Monte Cinto. However, from Pointe des Eboulis, continuing on to the highest point, you are rewarded with a spectacular view and a sumptuous panorama. An early start is necessary to avoid the clouds that can cling to the summit.

Fourth stage ofthe GR®20with the Cirque de la Solitude pass. A place that leaves no one indifferent. Please note: the facilities for descending and ascending the Cirque de la Solitude have been removed, making this a very challenging route.

A magnificent and unmissable hike. Caution: the passage of ladders and cables before Lac Melo and the descent of this section may prove difficult for those not accustomed to using this equipment and also to stony paths. 20/05/2024: Hike modified. The Restonica valley is no longer accessible by car! The start is now at the last stop served by the shuttle bus(Pont de Frasseta). See practical information.

U chjassu di i lavi The beautiful lakes of Melu and Capitellu are still accessible. It is now a challenging hike. Take on the challenge and your efforts will be rewarded! The former starting point for this hike, from the Grotelle sheepfolds, is no longer accessible by vehicle due to the significant damage caused by storms Ciaran and Domingos. The starting point is now at the Frasseta bridge.

This is a very beautiful hike that allows you to discover the two lakes of Melo and Capitello with a view of the Brèche de Capitello. The view from the breach allows you to discover both sides of the massif. 20/05/2024: The Restonica Valley is no longer accessible by car! The starting point is now at the last stop served by the shuttle bus( Pont de Frasseta) . See practical information.

A challenging hike to one of Corsica’s most beautiful lakes, at an altitude of over 2,000 metres. Please note: read the latest review dated August 2024.

These sheepfolds, which are in very good condition, mark the end of a forest area. The group of sheepfolds forms a small hamlet of several well-restored huts. The surroundings are magnificent, with large rock formations and the Riviseccu stream. Shaded throughout, the route follows an old forest track that climbs gradually through a forest where beech trees are omnipresent, in contrast to the Laricio pine trees along the stream.

The third stage ofthe GR®20is a beautiful climb through scree. And magnificent orange lilies add colour to the mountain.
