When bikes meet hiking

The 6-day hybrid crossing is an unprecedented concept that combines bike adventure and mountain hiking. This loop with departure and arrival in Ajaccio takes you across one of the most beautiful parts of Corsica.

A sea and coast version is also possible !

 

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.
