7 days of intensive sport challenge and intensive beauty in Corsica. Each day the landscape changed, from misty forests to dry areas, from plains full of water to ridges, from one seaside to another.

Highs & Lows
A pink sunrise that looked like a dream and sea of clouds on top of the mountains. The saucisson and the cheese are a must.
The weather was a but unpredictable, it's normal in the mountains. You can pack accordingly.
Itinerary Overview
We arrive in Calenzana. The excitement rises when we see the sign marking the departure. What exactly is waiting for us?
We crossed Corsica from north to south on a difficult but worthwhile route.
7 days of walking in breathtaking landscapes, starting in Calenzana, a nice village near Calvi. During the walk we were passing through other mountain villages such as Pietra Piana, Vizzavona. After it all, we spent a well deserved weekend in the beautiful town of Bonifacio after the end of the walk at Conca. There, we visited the "vieille ville" with our tired feet, enjoyed drinks at the port and ate in good restaurants.

The beautiful village where to regain strength, a good stay at the hostel, and a very good meal, in the evening and in the morning.
We arrive with family and friends around 3 pm , the atmosphere is so chill , you can see options with a good vibe all around
the best part is to sit and enjoy the sunset with a good glass of wine, i really recommend this place for at least 2 days.
Bonifacio The beauty of the city and the possibilities of leisure activities.
Here is a sublime town on the edge of a cliff, where you can dine in delicious restaurants, stroll along with the charming old port and enjoy a well-deserved rest after the effort.
The view is breathtaking, you can find different types of accommodations depending on your budget.
It was the end of our trip, so it was so satisfactory to all of us, to finish in such a beautiful place.
