Mountain holidays
Even if you love the beach, the mountains are an absolute must on your itinerary. You'll find the most beautiful walks and hikes there. The views, the scent of pine trees and scrub, the green of the meadows, the shepherds' encounters, the coffee on the terraces will give you a crazy energy and a gentle tranquillity at the same time. It's not uncommon to come across a cow in a village, flocks of sheep and pigs by the roadside - just keep an eye on them, don't feed them, they're part of the landscape. This walker's kingdom passes through some magical forests: the Aîtone forest near Evisa, with its imposing, sublime larici pines and beech trees, the Valdu-Niellu forest with its bathing in the regional park, and the Vizzavona (Vivario) forest backing onto Monte d'Oro (2390 m), which leads to the famous Cascade des Anglais waterfall. If you come in winter, you'll have the joy of skiing while gazing out at the sea, an exquisite sensation in the face of so much bounty! You can also explore on snowshoes and try ski touring.
A trip to the sea
After a few days in the mountains, head for the coastline and its turquoise waters! Postcard-perfect scenery and picturesque landsc apes await you. With its multitude of fine sandy beaches and beautiful coves, the Île de Beauté is home to some wonderful places to live. You can choose to explore the coasts of upper Corsica: swimming at Saleccia, cruising in the Calanches de Piana, scuba diving on the Revalla peninsula, or the coasts of southern Corsica at Cala di Conca, in the Fazziolu Islands, at Anse d'Arbitru or Fazzio, at Capo di Moro, on a walk to the Sanguinaires Islands...
June to September is a great time for cruises, so make the most of it to discover Corsica in a whole new way. Don't miss out on a catamaran cruise, jet ski tour or windsurfing. Corsica's weather lends itself wonderfully to these activities!
