Details

Between France and Italy, yet with its own cuisine, culture and language, Corsica is a unique island of dramatic beauty. Hike its most picturesque trails on this expertly led small-group adventure. Basing ourselves in Corte, we hike through gorges and pine forests, pass swimmable rock pools, and venture across the island on the quaint mountain railway. Our days end at the family-run Hotel de la Paix, enjoying Corsican hospitality.

Highlights

  • Discover the impressive mountain scenery and diverse landscapes of Corsica on foot
  • Get a taste of the celebrated GR20, a long-distance hiking trail that crosses the whole island
  • Spend a free day at the beach in Napoleon’s hometown of Ajaccio or in Bastia
  • Enjoy a warm Corsican welcome at Hotel de la Paix in Corte

Included in Price

  • The trip includes all breakfasts, five picnic lunches and six evening meals. Evening meals are taken at a restaurant near the hotel, U Passa Tempu, and are arranged as a menu for the whole group. The evening meal on your free day is not included, allowing you to try the local restaurants. Typical meals are: Breakfast: Orange juice, croissant, fresh French bread, coffee/tea, cereals, eggs, cheese and cold cuts. Lunch: Picnics made of a mixed salad (eg pasta and tuna, potato and meat, lentils and sausage), bread and cheese, and fruit. We encourage you to bring your own recyclable container. Evening meals: A first course of soup or a starter (often salad or charcuterie); a main course usually with meat, sometimes fish; and a dessert. Corsica is famous for charcuteries and brocciu cheese, fresh local herbs, gamey meats and fish, which can feature in the evening meals. The evening meal does not include drinks. Vegetarians can be catered for, but the options are more limited, with the evening meal normally pasta or omelette-based.
