The climb up the winding path to the Torra di Turghju is rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the Corsican coastline. This ancient Genoese tower, perched on a rocky promontory, offers a glimpse into the island’s rich history. From the summit, you can admire the crystal-clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea, the picturesque villages of the Gulf of Porto and the majestic peaks of the Corsican mountains.
