    The gorges of Spelunca (Spilonca in Corsica) extend between the villages of Ota and Evisa. The path that runs along the impressive and deep canyon follows an old mule track. This place is very popular, therefore very busy, but its beauty totally justifies this craze.

      The gorges of the Spelunca are crossed by the stream of Tavulella which takes the name of Porto port in the Corsican language at the exit of the gorges. In its crossing, the Tavulella is fed by the waters of the Aïtone stream, the point of confluence being located downstream of the Genoese bridge of Zaglia.
      The gorges offer vertiginous landscapes, dominated by a huge rock at the top of which is said to have existed in the place called U Castellu, the Leca castle destroyed in the 17th century according to local legend.

        The Spelunca Gorge is located on the French island of Corsica on the west side of the Col de Vergio. A hiking trail runs along the bottom of the gorge, while the actual pass road rises a few hundred meters above the valley floor. An architectural attraction, the medieval Genoese bridge "Ponte a Zaglia", can only be reached on foot. At the end of the gorge is the town of Ota, to whose municipal area the well-known coastal town of Porto belongs.
