We’ve selected a top 10 list of outdoor and sporting activities to spice up your vacation in one of Haute-Corse’s most beautiful destinations. Suggestions for activities around the 3-star campsite in Calvi.
Climb to the Austrian cross
Whether you go it alone or with a companion, go at your own pace. Once at the top of Capu di a Veta, home to the famous Austrian cross, you’ll enjoy a breathtaking view over the Bay of Calvi.
A walk in the heart of the Bonifato forest
A must-see in the Balagne region, this forest, with its river, is a delight for those looking for a cool, tranquil spot, especially in summer.
Getaway in Saleccia Park
The Parc de Saleccia is seven hectares of lush greenery where you’ll have the chance to admire the island’s wealth of flora and fauna. It’s also a place where you can recharge your batteries with family and friends.
From Calvi to Ile-Rousse by micheline
The micheline is a highly original way to explore the Balagne region. On the way to Ile-Rousse, you’ll have the chance to admire some of the region’s most beautiful landscapes.
Discover Girolata
The best way to get to Girolata is by boat. Some holidaymakers, however, opt for hiking, taking routes of varying levels – some suitable for family outings, others reserved for experienced walkers. Whichever route you take to get there, Girolata leaves no one indifferent, especially as the hamlet is just a stone’s throw from Corsica’s regional nature park.
Kayaking in the Gulf of Fango
Kayaking is an original way to discover new landscapes. At the same time, it’s a moment of relaxation, especially when you’re paddling in a place as calm and relaxing as the Gulf of Fango.
Palm hike on the Revellata site
La Revellata is also a must-see in the Balagne region. And it’s all the more attractive for being just a stone’s throw from an underwater reserve, where visitors can discover a particularly diverse fauna, from dente to groupers, conger eels and lobsters.
Visit wine cellars
In many regions of France, such as Burgundy, Alsace and Gironde, wine-touring is a common activity. On the Isle of Beauty, visiting wine cellars is also a popular activity for holidaymakers. In Lumio, for example, wine lovers flock to Etienne Suzzoni’s Clos Culombu; in Zilia, many visit Pierre Renucci’s Domaine d’Alzipratu; in Feliceto, the Domaine Renucci welcomes them…
Try your hand at Calvi’s adventure course
The adventure course is for young and old alike. The activity, both physical and fun, lets you unwind and share moments of joy and carefree fun with family and friends. The course is also a delight for those who love a challenge and a thrill (zip lines, bike rides, etc.). Take advantage of the comfortable rentals at our beachfront campsite for a well-deserved rest. After a sporty day, relax by the pool or on the terrace of one of our mobile homes.
Thrills and spills at sea
