Des lieux à découvrir sans hésiter. Réserve de Scandola, Girolata. Activité fait en fin de journée avec un retour avec coucher de soleil sur la mer. Et Laurent a juste été parfait dans son rôle d'accompagnateur.

Activité superbe surtout le matin à la fraîche, même si en Corse il ne fait jamais frais. Paysage à couper le souffle et découverte du village Girolata aucun mot ne peut décrire cette beauté.
