Corsica, one of the favourite destinations for bikers! The roadtrip remains indeed the best way to discover the charms of the island and to get to meet its inhabitants.
You will begin this trip from the north of the island, after climbing the Col de Teghime you follow the coast and cliffs discovering beautiful coves. This first stage, between sea and mountain, is the beginning of a long series of discoveries. While crossing the Agriates desert, magnificent scenery awaits you. Then you will take small unknown mountain roads through olive groves lined with cactus and prickly pears. You reach small villages and will take in the sight of cows that roam free.
Then, the region of Balagne stretches out in front of you in a mix of paradisiacal beaches and very green mountainous back country where authentic villages cling to the mountains and where the tiny roads climb and meander towards infinity.
