Background

• The most challenging walk in Europe
• Baggage transfers
• Rocky ridges and forested valleys

Any serious walker will surely have the GR20 on their ‘to do’ list. Much more than simply an idyllic Mediterranean island, it may come as a surprise to many that Corsica contains mountains offering welcome alpine style challenges to climbers and walkers alike. Following the spine of the mountains, the GR20 (which we follow diagonally from south to north), fits perfectly into a 2-week holiday. It weaves up and down and in and out of granite spires, forested valleys, rocky cirques and dramatic boulder-strewn ridges.

We support the walk with our local guides and private accommodation owners, thus keeping to a minimum what you need to carry in your daypack. Deviations from the main route to reach the valleys we stay in bring an added dimension to the walk, visiting traditional shepherds’ settlements in beautiful locations. Accommodation is a mixture of camps, refuges and giteswith each providing its own individual twist of traditional Corsican hospitality. We finish with the famous ‘Cirque de Solitude’ on the final day designed to make the crossing of this awe-inspiring place a grand finale to a fantastic trek.
