Highlights of the trip
Night in a small, family-run hotel with dinner.
During the morning, in the peace and quiet of this beautiful landscape and just below the Radule sheepfolds, a sophrology break will help you be mindful of the present moment. You will be able to connect with all five of your senses to feel the benefits of nature.
During the day, you will discover one of the most beautiful and unknown lakes on the island, Paglia Orba lake, as well as the most beautiful summit of Corsica. A magical, timeless place.
Normally only accessible to climbers, this summit can at last be reached by hikers thanks to a small passage that can be reached on foot.
After a stop to see the Carozzu refuge, where a famous film was shot, you will walk on down to the Auberge de Bonifato in the shade of an ancient forest. Your stay will end with a relaxing, customised massage, lulled by the gentle sounds of a mountain stream, in which you can also bathe and soothe your tired feet.
Departure after breakfast, with a transfer to Calvi station.
