Holidays in a camping village in the mountains of Corsica<\/h1>\n

\nHowever, its mountains<\/strong> and rivers<\/strong>, just as sublime, are not to be outdone.<\/p>\n

The most marvellous massifs<\/strong> of Corsica<\/em> overlooking the Mediterranean await you from our campsite in Corsica<\/a>.

The Corsican mountains<\/h2>\n

Majesty and character<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In such a small territory, the combination of beaches and mountains<\/strong> is an incredible opportunity. Like its spring water, Corsica draws its nobility and character from its mountain ranges. With 1,700 peaks<\/strong>, some as high as 2,700 metres (such as Monte Cinto), there’s a whole rocky territory<\/strong> to explore. From \u00cele Rousse towards Ghisonaccia, simply cut through Corte<\/strong> and Ponte Leccia<\/strong> to access two different mountain planes<\/strong> that virtually follow the divide between Corde du Sud and Haute-Corse. <\/p>\n

To the north-east, theEn-De\u00e7\u00e0-des-Monts<\/strong> (Cismonte<\/em> in Corsican) region comprises the highest, steepest ridges and reliefs<\/strong>. From Calvi to the Fiubormo river, including Cap Corse, this is a hiker’s paradise. The Cima di e Folicce<\/em>, Monte Cinto<\/em> (the roof of the island), Monte San Petrone and<\/em> Monte Astu <\/em>offer breathtaking views of the sea and the Golo and Tavignano valleys<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

To the south-west, Corsica’s other mountainous plateau<\/strong> is called“L’Au-Del\u00e0-des-Monts<\/strong>“(Pumonti<\/em> in Corsican). It is essentially made up of narrow, parallel valleys<\/strong> that are very interesting to observe. The Aiguilles de Bavella in the heart of the Regional Nature Park<\/a>, Monte Renoso<\/em> and Punta di a Cappella <\/em>attract many tourists in search of nature and breathtaking panoramas. Plan a van road trip in Corsica<\/a> to discover the island’s mountains. <\/p>\n

The Corsican mountains<\/strong> are made up of immense forests of beech, laricio pine, alder and chestnut, torrents and wild waterfalls. There are also mountain pastures and terraced farmlands around every bend in the valley. The many rivers and streams, natural breeding grounds for colourful trout, are sure to revitalise you with their clear, fresh mountain water.[\/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_1476715884186{margin-bottom: 12px !important;padding-top: 90px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 90px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;}”]Extraordinary summits[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1753451254376{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

What can you do in the Corsican mountains?<\/h2>\n

Climbing, walking and trekking<\/strong> are all common activities in the Corsican mountains<\/strong>, but there is much more to do than that. Go fishing<\/strong> or enjoy a refreshing swim in the many streams, lakes and ponds, or even natural pools<\/strong> such as those atA\u00eftone, near the village of \u00c9visa<\/strong>. Riding a horse, a donkey, on foot, a mountain bike or a quad bike<\/strong> are all equally attractive leisure activities. And if you’re lucky enough to visit the Corsican mountains in winter,<\/strong> you can even go skiing<\/strong> in the resorts.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1476716867747{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”3\/12″ css=”.vc_custom_1533282234089{padding-right: 6px !important;}” offset=”vc_col-xs-6″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1753451388914{margin-bottom: 12px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Sumptuous lakes for fishing and swimming in Corsica<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

The mountainous region of Corsica<\/strong> is home to lakes teeming with fish, ideal for canoeing, kayaking and cool swimming. The incredibly beautiful Lac de Tolla<\/strong> covers 73 hectares of water at an altitude of 550 metres. Lake Nino<\/strong>, one of Corsica’s largest bodies of water, is a must-see. If you’re not put off by freezing temperatures almost all year round, take a dip in Lac de Melo<\/strong>. Corsica’s mountain lakes<\/strong> are often adorned with pozzines, <\/em>small holes in the water where characteristic vegetation grows. <\/p>\n

And don’t miss the Restonica<\/strong>, Corsica ‘ s favourite river, which runs for around 20 kilometres and is reached by footpaths.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner css=”.vc_custom_1476700198111{margin-bottom: 10px !important;}”][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1476716786865{padding-right: 6px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”center bggrey bloctxt” css=”.vc_custom_1604402065553{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-right: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;padding-left: 25px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Do you know the Cascade des Anglais?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At the beginning of the 20th century, Anglo-Saxons visiting Corsica loved this waterfall<\/strong>, which eventually inspired its name. This famous G20 stopover<\/strong> is reached via the Vizzavona pass<\/strong>, on a pleasant walk suitable for all the family, even children. The route is dotted with interesting discoveries such as a historic fort, a mysterious-looking forest and a rocky passage. Once you’ve reached your destination, you’ll enjoy the natural pools<\/strong> at the foot of the waterfall, inviting you to relax in the water.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1476716793399{padding-left: 6px !important;}”][vc_column_text el_class=”blocnote center bloctxt” css=”.vc_custom_1604401724075{margin-bottom: 12px !important;padding-top: 65px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

A few precautions:<\/p>\n

To explore this rugged terrain in the best possible conditions, make sure you ‘re well equipped: take a good pair of good walking shoes<\/strong>a sun cream<\/strong> (SPF 50), a hat<\/strong> or cap, a first-aidkit<\/strong>. Carry enough water<\/strong> for the day and snacks<\/strong> to replenish your energy at every break.<\/p>\n

Help preserve the integrity of these natural areas by taking your picnic and other waste with you. Don’t leave anything behind and don’t uproot any plants or flowers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you’re tempted byclimbing in the Corsican mountains<\/strong>, you should know that several tour operators organise this type of activity for all levels and all ages.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
