When bikes meet hiking
The 10-day GR20 X GT20 Hybrid Crossing is a new alliance between bike adventure and mountain hiking. From Calvi to Conca, you cross Corsica from north to south by combining two mythical routes classified as UNESCO World Heritage. Enjoy 4 days of cycling until Corte, then continue on foot on the GR20.
Not a keen cyclist?
No problem! Our cycling stages are offered with a premium e-bike (VAE) that will allow you to complete all the climbs effortlessly and leave you time to marvel at the landscape.
Enjoy fully organized logistics to ensure continuity between the two practices :
- Roadbooks and GPS tools designed by field professionals.
- Delivery of bikes on site when you need them.
- Handling of transfers and part of the baggage according to the stay.

Jour 6 : Capanelle - Verde
4h20

7h30
800 m
You continue your progress towards the south on an aerial course on the ridges between the Taravu valley and the eastern plain. On the route crossing of Punta Cappella 2041 m. Quite airy passage on the ridge crest crossing fairly steep rocky slopes (but requiring no special equipment).
Jour 8 : Usciolu - Bassetta

You cross the Cuscionu Plateau, the highest altitude plateau of the Regional Natural Park. The day continues with a long descent towards Asinao. Via a steep route, you take the alpine variant and walk to cross the famous Bavella Needles. The granite shapes tortured by erosion are spectacular.
Jour 10 : Bavella - Conca
6h45
1350 m
A gentle descent awaits you today; be careful, this last stage is not to be underestimated, the descent is long, with no water points and the heat of the coast may surprise. You progressively cross the vegetation levels before arriving at Bocca d'Usciolu which marks the last descent to the village of Conca, the final point of your journey.
