In a few words

From our two accommodations—one by the sea and the other in the mountains—we now invite you to spend a week exploring the diverse landscapes of Corsica, both its easy-to-reach and more challenging aspects. Southern Corsica boasts a unique and captivating ecosystem with its remote islands and alpine peaks, offering a stunning panorama of white sand beaches, pink granite, fragrant maquis shrubland, and abundant mountain wildlife.

Upon arrival, we set off for the magnificent Gulf of Valinco to discover its most beautiful beaches. We begin with a stroll along the coast and a picnic lunch on Cupabia beach. We then spend a full day in Bonifacio, where it's lovely to wander, before heading up into the mountains to reach a small village clinging to the side of the mountain. For two days, we follow the legendary GR20 hiking trail, discovering an ancient Neolithic village and the ruins of a fortified castle. These easy, fascinating walks allow us to discover that Corsica is truly a mountain in the sea.

The highlights

  • An itinerary that takes you along the most beautiful trails and sites of southern Corsica
  • Two simple and welcoming accommodations, two different atmospheres: sea and mountain
  • Our minibus for greater comfort and flexibility

    Meet your guide in Ajaccio early in the morning. You'll leave this charming city along the coastal road that skirts the most beautiful beaches on the south shore, before climbing and descending towards the Gulf of Valinco to reach Cupabia Bay. With its pristine white sand, it's one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. But it's also a place steeped in history, which we'll discover as we walk through the maquis shrubland to a Genoese tower. This tower has stood guard against Barbary pirate raids for centuries.

    At the end of this walk, we will explore the Tanchiccia site, before returning to your accommodation, located in the heart of the village of Olmeto, one of the oldest on the island, which preserves in its stones a rich and fascinating history.

We chose the GR 20 trail along the coast. We had a wonderful week, but we didn't get enough hiking or mountain time in just five days. The Decathlon description wasn't detailed enough to give us a better idea of ​​what to expect before we left. Otherwise, Corsican nature is magnificent, and we'll definitely be back.
