Stone Arch Bridge Over the River in Parc Naturel Régional de Corse

Highlight • Bridge

2.08 km

The gorges of Spelunca (Spilonca in Corsica) extend between the villages of Ota and Evisa. The path that runs along the impressive and deep canyon follows an old mule track. This place is very popular, therefore very busy, but its beauty totally justifies this craze.

September 3, 2024,Wanderung Spelunca Schlucht

With pictures on request.
A little information about Corsica, the country and its people.
About hikes:
350 meters in altitude doesn't sound like much. But you often walk over large stones, more of a climb than a path, so you can't go too fast. And the heat takes up a lot of energy.

It's beautiful here though.

Great swimming spot at Point B at the parking lot or entrance to the gorge... Ideal on the way back...
