Corsica. Mare to Mare (North)

From San-Nicolao (Upper-Corsica) to Cargese (South-Corsica)

The Mare à Mare Nord hiking route is the northernmost traverse of Corsica, linking the Tyrrhenian Sea to the western side (from San-Nicolao to Cargèse). This course first plunges into the heart of Castagniccia, the "land of chestnut trees," before crossing the mountain ridge through high-altitude passes. The trail reveals a landscape of contrasts: dense chestnut forests to the east and glowing red rocks to the west (Gorges de la Spelunca, Evisa region). The arrival offers breathtaking panoramas of the Gulf of Porto and the famous Calanques of Piana, combining the essence of Corsican mountains with the wild beauty of the sea.
