Trail running on the GR20

Trail running on the GR20
Laetitzia PIETRI | 12/06/2019 | What's new

Over the past few years, trail running has really grown into an extremely popular sport. Combining getting outside, enjoying nature, and doing sport at the same time, trail running offers people the possibility to relieve their stress and reconnect with their primal selves.
The values transmitted by this sport are important and can easily be applied in your everyday life: mutual aid, surpassing yourself, determination and more.
Thus, you can see tons of new races opening every year around the world. And Corsica is no exception to the rule.

You feel close to the Mediterranean in east during the entire time, and you really get the feeling of being on an island while wandering most of the hike over 1500m. GR20 South is less rocky and challenging than GR20 South. However, you shall not underestimate the streneous ascents.

The Vizzavona Forest - A taste of the GR20

The Vizzavona Forest - A taste of the GR20
Laetitzia PIETRI | 07/03/2019 | What's new

If you want a taste of the GR20 without putting too much effort in it, the Vizzavona Forest can be a nice option.
The village of Vizzavona represents the limit between the Northern and the Southern part of the GR20 path. From there, you can join the mountain hut of Capanelle in the South (5 hours) or the one of l'Onda (5 hours 30 minutes) in the North.
However, if you are not used to long and difficult hikes, as the GR20 can be, there are other hikes available.
