This is a great “Sunday afternoon” hike, the path runs along the coast past creeks of fine sand to the tower.

Capu di Muro, Coti Chiavari
A tower, a lighthouse, a chapel, a farmstead, a maquis covered, windswept headland, a superb picnic spot, just a short drive from Ajaccio “wild and free” walking at its best.
La Revellata, Calvi
A lovely and relatively easy going walk onto the Revellata peninsula, through unspoilt maritime maquis, all the way to the lighthouse above the Oceanographic centres. This walk is fabulous in spring, when the flowering maquis is heady, and the trail quiet.
Tour d’Ominga, Cargese
This Genoese tower is called the tour d’OMIGNA, much lower than either of its neighbours, the path is coastal and easygoing and can be done in a couple of hours. The tower has been restored by the Conservatoire du Littoral and the path is well trodden.
Strada Vecchia to Paragan, Bonifacio
A STRADA VECCHIA is a great stroll along the clifftops from BONIFACIO. The first section takes you on the old pilgrim route to La Trinité Hermitage and to the PARAGAN beach, you then double back to the cove at FAZZIO, before skirting around the cliffs to the MADONETTE lighthouse, with views back to BONIFACIO.
Campomoro to Senetosa / Senetosa to Tizzano, Sartene
Wonderful coastal walking, the walk takes in the most unspoilt stretch of coastline in Corsica, between the villages of Campomoro and Tizzano.
Capu Rossu & Tour de Turghia, Piana
The Tour de Turghiu, it is built on a tremendous promontory of rose pink granite that soars out of the clear blue Mediterranean waters. The walk is unusual and quite unique in its genre, lots of down hill at the start and uphill at the end. But it is certainly a wow factor and has to be up there as one of the best walks in Corsica. Sea and mountains, what more can you ask for…?
