Perched at an altitude of over 500 metres, the Tower of Seneca overlooks the Col de Santa Lucia. It protected both the Pinu coastline and the coastline bordering the Luri valley on the other side of Cap Corse. To reach it, the route suggests approaching it via the ridges overlooking it to the north and returning via the village of Luri.

The trail starts at the northern end of the long beach of Macinaggio, covered with a thick layer of Posidonia leaves. The route, marked in yellow, follows the rugged coastline and is punctuated by two Genoese towers. Superb views of the neighbouring islands of Capraia and Elba. Some Corsican specialities, the Filles du Cap on the beach (see photos). Caution! This is an extremely fragile area with a wealth of flora and fauna.
Round trip on the customs officers' path from Macinaggio to Barcaggio

Departure from Haute-Corse
A superb coastal route where the path alternates between beaches and small climbs to Capandola Bay. The terrain changes completely as you now have to climb 130 metres to reach a small pass, with an exceptional view of the Finocchiarola Islands on one side and Barcaggio Bay on the other.
The path runs along the cliffs, descends to the Agnello Tower and then levels out to Barcaggio.
The only difficulty lies in the length of the route.

Like a pointing finger, Cap Corse seems to point in the direction of Genoa, which was for a long time the dominant power in Corsica. The Republic left behind a series of stone towers that were intended to provide initial coastal defence.
Between Macinaghju and the island of Giraglia, four of them still stand guard. The proposed route connects them.
