Szállítási határidő: 1 hét Bizarre coastal cliffs, charming sandy bays,
beautiful chestnut and pine forests, sparkling clean brooks, magical mountain
lakes, summit destinations at over 2700 metres high, as well as predominantly
unspoilt nature ? what other holiday destination in Europe can boast a similar
offer? There is hardly another place where a walking and bathing holiday can be
combined in such an ideal way as on this Mediterranean island. Among hikers and
mountain climbers, Corsica is no longer a secret. The long-distance alpine
hiking trail GR 20 is especially popular, and a few tours in this guide follow
portions of that route. The undisputed highlight, however, are the towering
peaks of the two-thousand metre mountains Monte Cinto, Monte Rotondo, Paglia
Orba and Monte d'Oro, which place the breathtaking, small world of the Mountain
Range in the Sea at the feet of hikers. But also nature lovers with less than
alpine interests, and even die-hard Corsica fans will love this walking guide.
Because, in addition to the main tourist routes, the author presents a number of
less known walking options, from a beach walk to an adventurous cascade tour, to
an easy panoramic summit. Most of these tours can be undertaken by families with
children and elderly persons without difficulty. Lots of tips and information
round out this well-executed walking guide and make it a must when travelling in
the unique mountain landscape of Corsica. The above edition has been newly
updated ? a proven, reliable companion for all expeditions and mountain tours on
the Island of Beauty.
