몬티첼로‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 천연기념물

We were sent up here by a very friendly resident. A highlight for locals too.

Translation of the explanation board: Erected at an altitude of 1100 meters between the Col de Battaglia and the Col de Croce Dolu, the Peace Sculpture, inaugurated on August 14, 1999, represents mutual aid and solidarity, symbolized by five hands - the five continents - united for peace. Realized from the drawing by Arnaud CASANOVA of the Porticcio school, winner of the Corsican schools competition "1,2,3... it's up to you to play - to draw - to peace". It was made in the Brando Quarry by the sculptors Anne-Marie Moretti, Andros, Dom, Pierre Pardon and Mario Sabaty. From its location we discover the Ghjunsani, the mountains, the Balagne, the sea and the horizon, a symbol of interiority and openness.

A small climb is necessary to reach this rock which offers splendid views of the hamlet of Praioli, the sea and the first balcony of the mountains in the hinterland of Île Rousse.

Magnificent views of the north coast of Corsica, with good visibility you can also see the sea on the east coast.

Corsica in the hinterland in the middle of the mountains, always surprised by different landscapes. Here wild macchia alternate with pasture areas, cows and kites are the only ones to see here, people would have to look for them. The long enjoyable downhill but should be stopped one or the other times, rushing through would be really too bad.
