Good organization, some things need to be improved (cfr comments), next year we are doing the GR20 north
The southern route of the GR20, stretching from Vizzavona to the village of Conca over a distance of 90 km, can be covered in 7 stages averaging 6 hours of walking.
Although it crosses mountains at altitude, this part of the GR20 is reputed to be less difficult than the northern section, thanks to its gentler terrain. The route from Vizzavona to Conca takes in the beautiful Vizzavona forest, Capanelle and its ski resort, the Col de Verde, the Cuscionu plateau, Monte Alcudina, the Asinao valley, and the Aiguilles de Bavella. Many hikers prefer to start their journey from Bavella for shorter stages.
Specializing in the GR20, our agency organizes several routes ranging from moderate to sporty. Whether in a group with a guide or on your own, depending on the version that suits you, you can make the authentic crossing from hut to hut or choose a more comfortable version without carrying a rucksack. Shorter hotel packages are also available. Don't hesitate to contact us if you'd like to book a private departure or adapt an existing program.

Bonne organisation, certaines choses sont à améliorer (cfr commentaires), l’année prochaine nous faisons le GR20 nord
Overall we were happy with our stay. On the other hand we were very disappointed by the fact that in two places we couldn't eat properly....
Even on a self-guided holiday, you'll feel accompanied by the agency, which is always ready to listen.
Easy-to-use application. Missing the contour line to see a bit of what's left to do ...
Thank you Corsica Aventure for this great trip. Top organization with a very well chosen route....
Very satisfied with the stay, the organization, the application and the responsiveness for a change of accommodation following bad weather.

Très satisfait du séjour, de l'organisation, de l'appli et de la réactivité pour un changement d'hébergement suite au mauvais temps.
The app allowed us to check our route several times. We found significant discrepancies in the gradients indicated.
Picnics vary from one establishment to another for evening meals in general very correct.
A wonderful experience with great human encounters in an exceptional setting. We highly recommend this trip in the "freedom" version?

The GR20 Sud offers a blend of challenge and accessibility, with breathtaking scenery and unspoilt nature. Walkers cross large green meadows adorned with typical pozzines, featuring less steep terrain and more modest gradients. It includes some Alpine sections, such as the Statues Ridge, providing a gradual preparation before tackling the GR20 North section
The Aiguilles du col de Bavella, a marvel of the southern part of the GR20 in Corsica, offer splendid views between the Asinao and Paliri refuges.
The Cuscionu plateau, at an altitude of around 1,500 metres in the Monte Incudine massif, presents a hilly, wooded landscape, with pine and oak forests, lush green meadows, streams, and the chance to spot wild horses.
The Pozzines du Renosu, acidic peat meadows situated between 1,700 and 2,300 metres in altitude, occupy depressions formed by ancient glacial lakes..
The GR20 South can be done from the beginning of May to the end of September, with the best period running from June to September. July and August are the quietest months. During these four summer months, the path is well cleared and generally free of snow.
The part of the GR20 South starts in Vizzavona. Vizzavona is easily reached by train from Ajaccio, Bastia or Calvi. If you do the GR20 Sud the other way round, you'll need to get to Conca to start the trek.
