Superb hike. The coast is magnificent. At certain points along the way, we came across a few cows. On the way back, we took a detour to see the Genoese tower. It was very interesting; there was an exhibition tracing the history of the Genoese towers and that of Corsica.

The coast is splendid. The part of the loop through the scrubland is less interesting but still pleasant and easy. A walk not to be missed.

Beautiful hike. Magnificent views along the well-marked coastal trail. Swimming in the cove comes at just the right time halfway through the hike.
The return trip through the scrubland is more difficult due to the elevation gain, but it is shaded.
No real difficulty
One thing to note is that it is very difficult to park at Campo Moro, as there are few parking spaces.

Very beautiful route. The signposting is well done. Medium difficulty. At the end of the route, I thought it might have been better to do it in reverse, as the section through the scrubland is less interesting than the magnificent seaside landscapes. Rachel

The first part of the route was magnificent along the coast, with just one "tricky" section between the rocks. The variety of landscapes is very pleasant and a change of scenery. The second part is much more strenuous, as the gradient is greater and you have to climb through the maquis. This is a very well-maintained trail that should be done when it's not too hot, as there isn't much shade.

A very fine walk, with no difficulties on the seaward side, but a little more arduous on the return journey.
The scenery is superb and the rocks magnificent. Done in May with very few people, a real feast for the eyes.

Very nice walk. Half of the route with sea views. Shady part on the way back in the undergrowth. If you stop for a picnic on the way to the beach, there's not much shade. It took us 3 hours with a big lunch break.

A very well signposted walk with some magnificent and varied scenery!
The average difficulty is almost easy, although it is a little long. You may wish to start the walk closer to the Genoese tower than indicated on the initial itinerary.

A very nice walk, well signposted and without any difficulties. We made a detour to visit the Genoese tower at Senetosa, which is well worth the effort, with interesting explanations inside and a fine view from the top of the tower. To get back to our route, we took the coastal path down from the tower.
Beautiful rocks and scenery along the way.
We were disappointed at Canusellu beach, where we couldn't swim because there were jellyfish!
Another point to note: all car parks in Campomoro are subject to a charge (€6 for 4 hours).

The route is easy to follow, with just one junction to keep an eye on. Very nice view of the sea and rocks. Unspoilt nature and a fun walk.
