Corte
GT20 Center: From Calvi to CorteThe heart of Corsica beats in its mountains — ancient forests of towering Lariccio pines, gorges carved into red granite, passes that open onto vast panoramas of lakes and peaks, and villages where time stands still. This central chapter of the GT20 takes you from the azure citadel of Calvi deep into the island's wild interior, through some of the most spectacular and unspoilt landscapes in the entire Mediterranean.
You will ride along the Gulf of Galéria, past the former pirate refuge of Girolata, through the UNESCO-listed Calanques de Piana with their otherworldly red rock formations, and into the majestic Aïtone forest before crossing the Vergio Pass — the highest point on the GT20. The journey ends in Corte, the historic mountain capital of Corsica, perched dramatically above the Restonica gorge.
With five cycling stages that range from gentle coastal rides to one serious mountain day, this tour rewards adventurous cyclists with a side of Corsica most visitors never see.
