Discover the wild and authentic side of Corsica on the brand-new Wild Trail Mare & Monti tour. This challenging trek takes you through some of the island's most spectacular landscapes, including the famous Calanques de Piana and Monte Senino.
As you follow pathless terrain, rocky ridges and dense Mediterranean maquis, you will experience Corsica's rugged nature up close. Activities such as abseiling down 60-metre cliffs, hiking along steep coastal walls and reaching the summits of remote peaks offer the perfect combination of challenge and breathtaking views.
You will spend nights under the open sky on beaches and in local villages, where you can cook together and enjoy Corsican cuisine in charming restaurants. The adventure concludes with a boat trip through the Scandola Nature Reserve. This tour is ideal for those who want to immerse themselves in nature while testing their limits. You will need a spirit of adventure, sure-footedness and good fitness – but the reward is unforgettable experiences.
