Best Road Cycling Rides to Departure Col de Bavella

Tips

  • Very long climb over the Bocca di Larone. From Solenzara, it is very wavy at first to the actual climb to the Larone. Then follows a small downhill and the difficult final. There are many beautiful views of the sea and the Bavella massif ("Dolomites Corsica").
    One morning in early July, the traffic was still okay. Later in the day or later in the summer it will probably be borderline.

  • Morning at 6.00 clock start - fantastic - you are almost alone on the road

  • The Solenzara Valley offers a lot to see and with every kilometer the joy of one of the most beautiful passes in Corsica, perhaps the most beautiful of all?!
