Departure from Chisa (Haute-Corse)
The walk to the heights of Chisa and the U Saparghionu cave is a short hike. Before setting off, we met Antonin, a village elder who speaks highly of it – a close-knit village that has lost its soul over the years. We also met two Brittany Spaniels who accompanied us throughout the walk. You’ll no doubt spot them in the village: true guides....
