Description
The short Tighjettu – Ciottulu di i Mori stage leaves the afternoon free to climb one of the nearby summits. Paglia Orba (2,525 m), nicknamed the “Corsican Matterhorn”, is climbed via the Col des Maures in about 4 hours return.
Capu Tafunatu and its huge hole through the rock can be reached in about 3 hours return, with an exposed section along a ledge.
The PNRC makes it clear: these routes are not waymarked, are followed by cairns and include sections of easy climbing. They are only for hikers who are at ease on rock.
Tips
- Unwaymarked routes: avoid them in fog.
- A helmet is recommended on the easy climbing sections.
