CORSICA

Corsica is a trekker's paradise

Stunning scenery, tranquility and wilderness

Corsica offers some of Europes best trekking, is within easy reach of the UK and enjoys a distinctive Mediterranean culture and climate.

This is an island of great natural beauty, with mountains skirting close to the sea, leaving a thin coastal plain supporting vineyards and orchards. Much of the interior is designated National Park, hosting a rich variety of flora, and is criss-crossed by a fine network of established, well-marked trails.

We prefer to use one of the coast-to-coast routes for your trek, incorporating up to 12 days of supported or unsupported trekking, passing through quiet villages and hamlets, forests, valleys and gorges. Your accommodation will be a combination of hotel, gites, refuge and tent, enjoying wonderful Corsican hospitality and cuisine.

Although we feature trekking in your Corsican Adventure, there are also opportunities for climbing, abseiling, mountainbiking and a host of watersports, particularly scuba diving. We usually recommend your trek as the first phase of the expedition, reaching your base camp on or near the coast for these other adventurous activities. All our Corsican Adventures offer a true taste of life on this wonderful island, the Mountain in the Sea.
