Coming from Zonza, it's an interesting narrow, winding mountain pass road to the Col de Vaccia with many nice impressions. Countless encounters with little pigs and cows on the road, a bit skittish but salad, melon… always tastes good.
Arriving at the pass, there's a super great panoramic view of the

🇫🇷 Punta Velaco 1483 m - Promontoire 1420 m - Felsentor Trou de la Bombe 🤩🤩
Die Punta Velaco bildet bildet zusammen mit dem Promontoire das zentrale Bollwerk der südlichen Bavella-Gruppe.
Der Aufstieg erfolgt durch ein steiles Couloir, das uns nach dem bequemen Zuweg trotz angenehmer Temperatur leicht ins schwitzen bringt.
Der Gipfel selbst erfordert dann etwas Kraxlerei, von zwei den besseren Einstieg für sich wählen,…

We start the hike from the Bavella Pass, past the Notre-Dame des Neiges statue.

Longer drive this morning from Tizzano to Bonifacio.
Bonifacio already impresses with its breathtaking location on a white chalk cliff high above the sea.
The city was founded around 830 by the Tuscan Count Bonifacio.
Almost the entire old town is perched on a 60-80 m high limestone plateau that is undercut

The easy hike starts from the Auqua Dolce campsite.
Since it is very cloudy at first in the afternoon, we lace up our hiking boots.
Dark clouds are hanging in the mountains, it might even rain inland according to the weather report.
It will soon be hot again while hiking, as soon as the sun comes out.

We drive up to the Bergeries de Bassetta, it is once again very narrow and winding.
Unfortunately, the Bergeries close on October 1st.
Many hikers from the GR 20 pass by here and it is surely very turbulent in the summer months with overnight stays, breakfast and meals.
They also offer space for 4 campers
