View from the coast to Punta Vecchia

Highlight • Other

The view of the coast of Punta Vecchia is breathtaking, with its steep cliffs plunging into the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean. Along the shore you can admire the spectacular profile of Punta Vecchia jutting out into the sea. Don't miss the tower of Santa-Maria-della-Chiapella, a must-see from this location.

Cap Corse (Corsican Capicorsu, Italian Capo Corso) is a peninsula in northern Corsica. It is located in the Haute-Corse department.
The peninsula is about 40 km long and about 10 km wide. At its southeast end is the city of Bastia. The highest peaks are Monte Alticcione (1138 m), Monte Stello (1306 m) and Cima di e Follicie (1324 m) (with the Grotta a l'Albucciu cave). North of Cap Corse lies the small island of Giraglia, which belongs to the municipality of Ersa.

Dream stands and great panorama but technically very demanding and then a grind uphill, therefore only for experts and able-bodied - especially in July! Take lots of water!!
