Departure from Bocognano (Corse-du-Sud)
A hike leading to the A Tanedda glacier (or more precisely, the snowfield). This site was used fromthe 17th to the early19th century for the ice trade. After extraction, the ice was transported to Ajaccio. A beautiful ascent, alternating between shaded and sunny areas, which will give you a sense of the harshness of life in days gone by.

Departure from Cozzano (Corse-du-Sud)
Stage 13 between the Usciolu PNRC refuge and the Croci sheepfold follows the new route via Matalza (since 2011). A stage with not much elevation gain, but one that should not be underestimated. The start along the ridge is a bit technical up to Punta di a Scaddatta. Then a descent through the forest, crossing fields of ferns before a gruelling climb, part of which is on a track, up to the Croci sheepfold on the Coscione plateau.
