    Because you're finally at the top and can stretch your legs a bit on the plateau before tackling the final climb to Bavalla from Zonza.
    Of course, also because of the great view up there.

    We started the tour from Solenzara through the Bavella Valley via Zonza.
    After a short rest with this stunning panoramic view, we made the final descent down to Porto-Veccio, which would stay with us for a long time. The road was wide and quiet with long, clear curves, but the warm wind from the sea blew against us so hard that we couldn't go as fast as we would have liked.

    L'Ospedale is named after a hospital established here long ago, in 1762, to treat malaria patients from the then marshy area around Porto Vecchio.
    From up here, you have a magnificent view of the bay of Porto Vecchio and southern Corsica.
