News

Every year, we strive to reduce the carbon impact of our hiking holidays in Corsica. To achieve this, we favour hiking trips that are close to the accommodation, which limits the length of vehicle journeys. For the last two years, we've also been developing holidays that use the train as the main means of transport.

U Trinichellu: a symbol of culture and tourism

History and description of the Little Train of Corsica

U Trinichellu, which means "the little train" in Corsican, is much more than just a means of transport. It is a cultural symbol and a major tourist attraction on the island of Corsica. This unique rail network, in operation since the late 19th century, plays a crucial role in connecting the island's main towns, while offering an exceptional view of Corsica's diverse landscapes, from rugged mountains to azure coasts.

Beyond its transport function, U Trinichellu embodies the spirit of Corsica, providing an essential link not only between geographical locations but also between communities.

For the island's inhabitants, this train represents a vital link between remote regions and is a pillar of the local economy, particularly in the tourism sector. Its presence reinforces cultural identity and enriches the experience of visitors, who discover the island in a unique and authentic way.

A variety of routes and landscapes

The train runs on two main lines: Bastia to Ajaccio and Bastia to Calvi, via Ponte-Leccia. This journey offers travellers an unforgettable experience, crossing valleys, bridges and tunnels, while offering spectacular views of the Mediterranean.

An eco-friendly option

As well as being a way of discovering Corsica in a unique way, the Trinichellu offers an eco-friendly alternative to the car, in line with a growing awareness of ecotourism and the preservation of the island's environment.
