You're fond of sports ? Great ! In Corsica, you can practice many different sports thanks to its coast (1000 kilometres), its "GR 20" (1500 kilometres), its nature reserves and marine parks, its wild creeks and pathes and of course its numerous rivers and torrents.
Corsica is a region where the term « at one with nature » gets its meaning…
A preserved island whose reputation of being « green » is acknowledged.
An island where the sun the sea and the mountains are in perfect harmony.
An island too where all types of sports are possible.
The list of sporting activities is endless in an exceptional natural backdrop accessible in less than two hours from the European capitals.
Scuba diving amidst gorgonia and coral, tour of the island in a sailing boat, bivouac on a sea kayak, practise the jet ski or simply have a rest in the secluded creeks or on the white sandy beaches unless you prefer to visit the conservation areas part of the intangible world cultural heritage !
If you are a nature lover, you’ll choose among a large range of excursions : on foot, horseback, mountain bike, quad or 4X4 along safe waymarked paths.
You are not that any of those types ? You could also try canyoning discovering those wild gorges or going down the rivers on a raft just like in Colorado !
Do you want some more ? With an experienced guide, why not going along our amazing rock faces and climb our mountains : Bavella, Ascu, Porto… Or perhaps would you prefer the via ferrata also possible, just as flying is on your own between the sea and the mountains, handgliding.
Would you prefer to try out your swing ? You have the choice between a 6-hole course in Porticcio near Ajaccio or an 18-hole at Sperone, in the gulf of Bonifacio !
With an extra, according the activity chosen, you could also meet and visit some mule drivers, shepherds, porks farmers, wine growers and if you’re lucky you could come across some storytellers.
So on your marks, get set, go !!!

Le GR 20 (incontournable) qui devient de plus en plus l'autoroute lors de la belle saison, je conseille plus les chemins de mare a mare qui offrent non seulement des paysages incroyables mais aussi des arrêts (obligatoires) dans des petits villages ou les gîtes vous invitent à partager quelques moments inoubliables. C'est une autre façon de découvrir la corse "profonde" avec ces traditions, sa culture. A la croisée de ces petits villages authentiques, des rencontres heureuses et ancestrales vous permettront de connaitre l'autre face de la corse loin du tumulte des grands centres tourisitiques de l'île.
Ces chemins de traverse sont bien balisés et l'accès et beaucoup plus facile surtout si vous êtes en famille ou peu habitué à marcher. Je vous conseille de bien étudier votre itinéraire avant votre départ et de réserver à l'avance les gîtes d'étape....je serai très heureux de vous croiser sur ces sentiers séculaires que j'arpente en VTT. .-)
il arrive que l'on se perde !!! et il faut revenir sur ses pas!!
effectivement ça parait tellement long que ça donne l'impression de faire 1500 Km
le GR fait 170 kms !
1500 km de GR 20 semble un peu exagéré.
Ou alors en ajoutant tous les chemins qui le croise
