THE INZECCA AND STRETTE PARADES
A natural site that offers a vertiginous and sumptuous itinerary in Ghisoni.
The swift waters of the Fium'Orbu river, tumbling down the slopes of the Monte Renoso massif to reach the eastern plain and the Mediterranean, have carved out two magnificent and very impressive gorges, among the most spectacular in Corsica: the Inzecca gorge and the Strette gorge(strette means narrow). Spread over 13 km, these canyons offer extraordinary scenery. To enjoy them, take the narrow, winding and spectacular D344 from Ghisoni. This natural site is sure to take your breath away: it's a vertiginous and sumptuous itinerary! Be warned, however, that the Inzecca is a very touristy natural gem. In summer, you'll have to cope with slow traffic and find a place to park, which can be very difficult... However, outside rush hour, you'll find plenty of idyllic bathing spots and enjoy one of the beautiful natural pools formed by the Fium'Orbu river, upstream from the lake. From Pinzalone, it's 4 kilometers of pure beauty, with a lake formed by the river just beyond the tunnel. Then you can continue your exploration with the more civilized, more accessible, more verdant and pleasant défilé des Strette, which is just as narrow, if not as vertiginous, as the Inzecca. Don't fail to admire the Genoese bridge u ponte a Mela . As before any adventure in nature, don't forget to check the weather forecast.
