In the center of Corsica, Corte is protected by the deep gorges and high mountains that surround it. It is a surprising city with its shale houses, very high and tight against each other, its cobbled streets and tortuous, punctuated steep stairs and its high city with the citadel. The center of Corsica offers a superb mountainous terrain. From the Restonica to Tavignano, the landscapes are linked but not the same.
Once there, take time to explore the liveliest areas, cafés, viewpoints and main landmarks, then shape your days around culture, food and downtime. Corte works well for a couple’s escape, a trip with friends or a slower solo stay.
