Route: completed in 2022

Start: Sagone, crossroads D81 / D 70 in the center of the village. Höhe : 5 m

General description

This circuit is one of the 2 or 3 most beautiful courses in Corsica. At the exit of Cargèse, the view plunges on the small gulfs of Peru and Chiuni. Piana is one of the most beautiful villages in France and the Gulf of Porto comes in three colors, green for the forest, blue for the sea and red for the rocks. The famous “Calanche” are located between Piana and Porto. The red granite here is delicately eroded in filigrees. The ascent to Evisa through the valley of Porto and its tributaries never tires.

The roads are of good quality. The ascent to the small pass of Curnatoghiu is steep and the pass is not the highest point before Cargèse ! The road is also steep just after the Col de Sevi but it is downhill!
