very pretty here, very pretty

The Vecchio rises on the Monte d'Oro and is initially called Agnone. This river is best known for its Cascades des Anglais, which attract hundreds of tourists every day in high season. From the hamlet of Vizzavona onwards, the river is called Vecchio and you only meet very few people. Shortly after entering Canaglia, it joins the Manganello. Here the Vecchio valley becomes very lonely. On the right-hand side, far above the riverbed, the railway line winds its way along the hills, barely visible. You don't notice the busy T20, which lies behind the hills. You only see it when you get off at the Ponte Vecchio. High above us, it crosses the Vecchio valley on the new bridge. Later, the Vecchio flows into the Tavignano, which reaches the sea near Aléria.

We went to the great Gumben today. We walked straight down the path from the Y-tree. But we didn't jump or even slide😱.

Place to take a bath and cool down

The Strette and Inzecca gorges further east come from the Fiurmorbo river. These canyon-shaped gorges stretch for more than 13 kilometers and offer extraordinary landscapes that can be admired while traveling the narrow and winding D344 from Ghisoni.

We did the climb from the Restonica valley in early July. Heavy rainfall in May caused exceptionally large snowfields below the couloir. Orientation and finding a way was therefore more difficult than under normal circumstances. In particular, the descent on what is actually the same path required a good sense of direction, very confusing, also due to randomly placed cairns that ended in dead ends below the couloir (sometimes on the mighty, too steep granite slabs, which abruptly bordered snowfields and forced to turn back... with then new attempts). In total we have 15km, 3200m difference in altitude (ascent, descent), 6.5 hours in motion and 11.5 hours total time (2 x 45min breaks, remaining time for photos, path search) needed. Tip: be sure to inquire about the snow situation beforehand. possibly Bring a toddle, a snow plate for sticks and a rope. Luckily the snow was very soft, so we didn't need all that. Sticks are mandatory!

Lake Bastani is one of the highest lakes in Corsica above (2000m). It is a beautiful feature to study from the top of Mount Renoso and to visit and enjoy while hiking to or from that same peak.
