Situated between Calvi and Porto, the region has been the island’s veritable orchard for centuries. Still very much an agricultural area, its citrus groves<\/strong>, olive groves<\/strong> and vineyards<\/strong> punctuate the gentle slopes of its hills dotted with small bridges<\/strong>, chapels<\/strong> and hilltop villages<\/strong>. <\/p>\n These wonders include Monticello<\/strong>, a haven of peace surrounded by olive trees and overlooking beautiful beaches just a stone’s throw from Ile Rousse. Corbara<\/strong>, home not only to splendid beaches but also to the imposing baroque church of the Annunciation<\/strong>, whose furnishings and treasury museum reveal the wealth and splendour ofCorsican baroque art<\/strong>. With its sights set firmly on the future, the village of Pigna<\/strong> now boasts an auditorium whose architecture blends tradition and modernity, and hosts the island’s major musical event, the Estivoce festival<\/strong>, in July. <\/p>\n Craft stalls, artists’ studios and dapper flower-decked residences line the lively lanes. Sant’Antonino<\/strong>, listed as one of the most beautiful villages in France<\/strong>, is full of winding lanes and vaulted passageways. Muro<\/strong> and its beautiful baroque church, Speloncato<\/strong>, whose houses seem to cling to each other to keep from tumbling down, and the rocky outcrop are as interesting for their architectural heritage<\/strong> as for the many footpaths that lead hikers into the heart of the enchanting countryside.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”5\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1475226085855{padding-left: 6px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”bloc-orange bigtitle” css=”.vc_custom_1476712121945{margin-bottom: 12px !important;padding-top: 75px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 75px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]Landscapes, authenticity[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1608125805392{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”center bggrey bloctxt” css=”.vc_custom_1604416094485{margin-bottom: 12px !important;padding-top: 25px !important;padding-right: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;padding-left: 25px !important;}”]<\/p>\n The Gulf of Porto, between sea and mountains<\/p>\n Jagged cliffs that seem to fall straight into the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean: the the wild landscapes of Corsica’s west coast<\/strong> are breathtaking. One of the most beautiful sites is the Calanques de Piana<\/strong>. Surrounded by spires of granite<\/strong> whose red contrasts with the whiteness of its houses, the village of Piana welcomes visitors with its squares and fountains, small church and traditional houses. Its mule track<\/strong> offers magnificent views of the calanques, which can be explored on foot along a number of signposted footpaths. You can also reach the very pretty village ofOta<\/strong>, close to the Spelunca gorges<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1476712440073{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”5\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1476712247638{padding-right: 6px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1475228034657{margin-bottom: 25px !important;}”] [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1479119375645{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”7\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1476712254841{padding-left: 6px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”center bloc-marine bloctxt” css=”.vc_custom_1749806790398{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 42px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 42px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}”]<\/p>\n Long golden sandy beaches, lively seaside resorts, fishing villages and farmland follow one another on Cap Corse<\/strong>. Here too, between the customs officers’ paths<\/strong> offering magnificent walks<\/strong> along the coast and dreamy beaches inviting you to laze around, nestle superb villages with houses built of silvery-grey schist stone. If you follow the Cap from Bastia, you’ll discover the charming seaside town of Erbalunga<\/strong>, the chapel of Notre-Dame-des-Neiges with its 14th-century frescoes next to Castello, and the great pieve of Luri. Centuri<\/strong>, on the west coast, was once one of the island’s main trading ports. Today, it is famous for the lobsters that are caught here (and eaten!). Next stop is Nonza<\/strong>, dominated by its paoline tower, before reaching the seaside resort of Saint-Florent, gateway to the Nebbio and its famous Agriates desert<\/strong><\/a>, a vast expanse of maquis and a hiker’s paradise<\/strong>.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1533281806926{padding-right: 6px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-xs-6″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1479119440624{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1753102605008{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1533281816015{padding-right: 6px !important;padding-left: 6px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-xs-6″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1753100836805{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”6\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1475226776635{padding-left: 6px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”center bggrey bloctxt” css=”.vc_custom_1604416266362{padding-top: 41px !important;padding-right: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 41px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}”]<\/p>\n Chestnut, pine and beech trees, craggy peaks, deep valleys and dense forests make up the backdrop to theAlta Rocca<\/strong>, a popular destination for hikers in the midst of sumptuous landscapes. Zonza, a former village of shepherds and lumberjacks<\/strong> at the foot of the Aiguilles de Bavella, is the ideal starting point for exploring the region, which is criss-crossed by numerous footpaths. As well as the very interesting archaeological sites of Cucuruzzu and Capula<\/strong>, the village of Sainte-Lucie-de-Tallano<\/strong> is well worth a visit. Its narrow streets lined with beautiful granite houses and its fortified house make for pleasant strolls.
