Rugged Beauty & Coastal Bliss on France’s Mediterranean Isle
L’Île de Beauté, it has been called. The Isle of Beauty. Still undiscovered by many foreign travelers, Corsica’s dramatic mix of sea and summits more than earns the island its name.
Highlights
- Hike the dramatic trails of La Revellata Peninsula and Balagne, where coastal ridgelines lead to serene mountain passages and sweeping Mediterranean views
- Wander through ancient stone village of Corte, a historic cultural center of the island built high on a rocky promontory, with epic views
- Walk through mountain valleys along clear snow-fed rivers, past centennial trees, majestic forests, and rugged mountain peaks that hold their snowcaps almost year round
- Retreat to intimate resorts in forested mountain valleys next to fresh mountain rivers
- Take in untouched beauty as you trace spectacular rock formations shaped by the wind and swim in sun-warmed waters
