Bruzzis Circular Loop

de fr

A superb walk with the first section along the coast and a return inland through the shade. Not particularly difficult, but it’s best to wear good walking shoes, be able to walk on a stony path and lift your feet in certain sections. In summer, make sure you take plenty of water!

Description of the walk

To find the car park, take the D122 from Viagenti. About 300 m past the cemetery, take the road on the right towards the campsites, not the harbour. In front of the Kevano campsite, turn right (signposted ‘Bruzzi’) and continue straight on to the car park.

(S/E) Head south-west, following the signposts for the Bruzzi trail.

(1) At the junction, veer left and head straight down towards a cove.

(2) Turn right to reach Pointe des Bruzzi.

(3) Turn right and make your way from cove to cove (stunning scenery). This will take you to Anse d’Arbitru (superb panoramic view).

(4) Then turn right. Walk through the scrubland, heading east at first. After about 750 m, the path turns south. Further on, head east again and return to a junction you passed at the start of the walk.

(1) Keep to the left (north-east) to return to the car park where you started (S/E).

⚑Departure from Corse-du-Sud
A short walk along the coast path from Furnellu Beach to the Tower of Olmeto and back via the same route. This path is a firm favourite for families on Sunday afternoons. It’s a sandy, almost flat path and very easy to walk. Depending on the season, you can pick myrtle, arbutus, juniper berries or everlasting flowers along the way.

⚑Departure from Monacia-d'Aullène (Corse-du-Sud)
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.

⚑Departure from Figari (Corse-du-Sud)
A very beautiful circular route through the Figari countryside, allowing you to visit the abandoned hamlet of A Testa, stroll through peaceful marshes and sneak from beach to beach along the rugged coastline. This is the habitat of Herman's turtles, which in springtime resembles a flower garden overrun with wind-sculpted topiaries. Beautiful, easy trails, accessible to mountain bikes.

⚑Departure from Bonifacio (Corse-du-Sud)
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.

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.

↔6.99 mi ↗+2,690 ft ↘-2,690 ft ◔5h 35 ▲Difficult
⚑Departure from Monacia-d'Aullène (Corse-du-Sud)
This circular route takes you along the classic route to Omu di Cagna but extends the route as far as Bocca di u Monacu and returns via the other side. If you follow the track carefully, you’ll be able to see the exact spot where you need to go through (and come out) to find yourself right at the foot of the rock, on the edge of the precipice! A few technical sections – see Practical Information Use of a GPS or the Visorando app is strongly recommended
