Please note: a hiker reported in August 2026 that access to the lake is prohibited due to forest fires. Check before setting off.
A climb to a high-altitude lake, set in beautiful mountain scenery. A varied route that starts in a pine forest, continues through rocky terrain and ends amidst pastures. This hike offers an alternative to the much busierGR®®20route, which starts from the Col de Vergio.

Departure from Corte (Haute-Corse)
This hike is a variation (in terms of the route and starting point) of the Mare à Mare Nord. We set off from Corte, a very pretty town, and arrived at the Gulf of Porto.
We stopped at the Refuge de Sega, the Gite d'Albertacce, the Col de Vergio (where we stayed for two days to explore Lake Nino) and Evisa before arriving in Porto.
