A beautiful circular walk, mostly along the coast, offering magnificent views of the cliffs of Bonifacio on the way there and back over the Gulf of Ventilegne. This is particularly recommended on windy days when the waves break on the rocky chaos of Cap de Feno with Sardinia in the background. The hike starts at the Hermitage of the Trinity, a place to visit for contemplation with a Way of the Cross on mercy. Plan to go swimming in the wild coves.

A superb hike in the Bouches de Bonifacio Natural Park. A refreshing walk along the coastline with a detour into the Étang de la Testarella wetland. It feels like walking through a landscaped garden filled with flowers in spring. A pleasant walk in any season. The return route offers a different viewpoint, preventing monotony. Three and a half hours including stops for this walk, which is one of our favourites. Once again, there is a wide choice of beaches and rocks. Can be combined with the Punta di Ventilegne circular.

A magnificent walk by the sea or in the countryside. Accessible from a car park at the edge of the trail, this route offers several points of interest such as beaches, rock formations and natural shelters, perfect for a walk with family or friends. This walk, with a moderate elevation gain, offers beautiful Corsican landscapes without any particular technical difficulty.

A short walk of less than an hour on the Rundinara peninsula. A family walk with a short 5-minute climb. First, take a short detour to the small beach, located south of the bay, then take the path that leads to the south coast of Rondinara Bay, with beautiful orange-red rocks standing out against the blue of the sea. Once at the top (53 m), you have a view of the entire Corsican coastline as far as neighbouring Sardinia.

Along the park path, a circular path joins the small beach of Prisarella and runs along the southern side of the pond. A short half-hour walk that is almost entirely flat.

The Bouches de Bonifacio nature reserve.

This very easy short hike starts in Monaccia-d'Aullène and follows the heritage trail, which leads to the Mesolithic Orii, which have had many uses over time (farming, livestock breeding, bandit hideouts, resistance, etc.). The circuit also features old mill buildings. __Please note__: although easy, this loop is not suitable for children or people with reduced mobility.

This hike, which starts on a track and continues along a pleasant path through the scrubland, will take you to Oriu Grussettu, a Corsican curiosity not to be missed.

This is a round-trip hike that leads to a summit at an altitude of 1,217 metres. At the end of the climb, rising up from a jumble of black granite, stands the Uomo di Cagna, a balancing rock formation. The summit plateau offers a beautiful view of the southern coastline.

The empty beach of Erbaghu is probably one of the most beautiful in Corsica and, incidentally, an extraordinary example of tafunate erosion. Return via the Rocapine Tower.

A short walk to the abandoned village of Pruna. The highlight is undoubtedly the 180° view of the mouth of the Gulf of Porto Vecchio and the tip of San Ciprianu, just opposite.

Short circular walk through the Corsican scrubland leading to the old sheepfold of Paccialu di a Sarra, then to Punta di Pitone (577m) where there is a beautiful view of the village of Giuncheto, the Ortolu valley and the Cagna mountain.

A short hike through undergrowth, meadows and scrubland leads to the remains of Castellu di Baricci (beautiful ruins), whose original construction dates back to the 13th century. From the summit (519m) of this rocky outcrop, hikers can enjoy an exceptional panoramic view of the Ortolu valley as far as Roccapina.
