From Campomoro to Campomoro via the coastal path
Starting from Campomoro, this circular hike is not difficult. Along the coast, rocky landscapes give way to coves and inlets.

The return journey takes you inland through the scrubland, offering beautiful views of the coast and finally the Gulf of Propriano.

The descent to the village winds its way through impressive granite boulders, once inhabited, in a forest of holm oaks that is as beautiful as it is mysterious.
