Montemaggiore

Highlight • Settlement

From Calvi, take the D451. It is a beautiful and quiet back road. Just before Montemaggiore there are a few hairpin bends.
The D151 from Calvi to Calenzana is straight as an arrow and very busy. A stop in Calenzana is still worthwhile because of the biscuiterie (Sarl e Fritelle). From Calenzana, the D151 is again nice to drive on.

Montemaggiore Village

Highlight • Settlement

The ascent is not easy, steep in the afternoon sun. But the somehow original, almost sleepy place is worth the effort.

Zilia Water Fountain

Highlight • Rest Area

A popular meeting place for road cyclists and mountain bikers. Here, you can fill your water bottle with genuine Zilia water—slightly chilled, too. Last year, I spoke to a local about the water quality of the fountain. He said it had been tested and was of drinking quality. This was a welcome stop on my leg of the route from Calvi to San Antonino. Further up in the town of Zilia, there's a very small corner shop with a small but very good selection of fruit.

Calenzana

Highlight • Settlement

You are in the geographical center of Balagne. The opportunity to taste local specialties such as calinzanu, a soft cheese with a fairly strong taste.
