Wild and adventurous hikes in Corsica, France, with a local guide
Travelling through the Corsican mountains with Xavier and Hendrix, his four legged friend, was a trip we will never forget. Xavier is a brilliant guide, easy to spend time and very knowledgable, we immediately felt relaxed in his company. We worked hard, saw beautiful and remote spots, swam in rivers and enjoyed the delicious local, organic food and wine that Xavier kindly carried along for our journey. It was a unique experience and we really enjoyed sharing it with both Xavier and Hendrix. We are always thinking of when we can next go back!
There are many reasons for choosing Hiking in France
Corsica has maintained its natural heritage away from the hand of man. Part of its conservation is due to its isolation, since it is accessible mainly by sea. In fact, it has a fabulous seabed with a great biodiversity. Here you will also find numerous animal and plant species, such as cormorants, wild goats, shearwaters, algae and corals.
