BAVELLA is the second most visited site in Corsica after Bonifacio. Its famous granite needles, surrounded by scrubland and Laricci pine forests with the blue of the Mediterranean as a backdrop, make it the jewel of Corsica.
CANYONING: The outdoor activity not to be missed on your holidays in Corsica.
Breathtaking scenery and guaranteed thrills. What could be more pleasant than to find yourself in the cool waters of a torrent on a hot summer's day?
La Purcaraccia: a masterpiece of nature! Crazy slides carved out of the granite propel you at high speed into crystal-clear turquoise pools in the middle of the Corsican maquis and its famous Laricci pines growing in the most unlikely places.
2 large 40-metre waterfalls to abseil down will spice up our descent and allow us to defy the laws of weightlessness. Special features: lots of slides and 2 big abseils.
Approach: 1h30
Descent: 3h
Return journey: 40 mins
A Vacca: one of the most beautiful canyons on the island, if not the most beautiful.
This river takes us into the bowels of the Aiguilles de Bavella, which give this canyon its incredible colours, from pink granite to emerald green for the basins.
What makes it special: Lots of jumps
Approach: 40 mins
Descent: 3h
Return : 1h
RANDO AQUA: A fun and refreshing activity to share with all the family. If you're by the sea and want to escape inland for a day and discover an authentic valley with its mountains, scrubland and rivers, then take a winding road for 15 km to reach the little village of Chisà, hidden away in its green setting. You'll go down a splendid river: jumps, slides, waterfalls and swimming are all on the programme, and you'll discover natural hot springs and giant basins carved out of the granite.
You'll see how water has shaped the landscape over time, and you'll be amazed by the wild, verdant countryside.
The difference between Aqua Rando and Canyon is :
- No approach steps to the river
- No recall.
The advantage of Aqua Rando :
Bold and moderate can ride together. Relatively high jumps can be avoided without any problem.
THE VIA FERRATA AT CHISA :
- With its spider's web, 2 monkey bridges, 3 Himalayan bridges (one of which is over 50 metres long), 3 footbridges and 4 zip lines (one of which is 230 metres long), this via ferrata is great fun.
- With a height of 300 metres and a 4-hour climb, it's a physical via ferrata.
- Its orientation: WEST
- Its difficulty: D
- Its rock: granite
