Collar of vizzavona

The forest of Vizzavona


1520 hectares of beeches and Laricios pines.

The forest of Vizzavona
      It is in the south of Corte, after having crossed Venaco then Vivario which the forest of Vizzavona begins, one of the most beautiful stages of the island.

      The forest is one of most beautiful of the island, and is attended by the tourists since the XIX ème century thanks to the opening of the line of the small train which crosses the ridge edge by a tunnel of 4 km of which boring with taken more than seven years. They were accesses the English aristocrats who sought freshness there, to reveal of them the beauties and to give their name to the cascades which descend Goes up of Oro.

      The circuit “cascades of the English” starts near the station of Vizzavona and moves away under the grove which wraps the rapids of Agnone. One does not count any more the links crossing the secondary brooks which water the underwood where the pines laricios mix, the beeches and the glazed foliage of the houx. Soon one gains other bank and the route more attended where a hut in logs is installed acting as refreshment bar. The cascade of the English, with its basins with water calm invites you to the bathe. The throat is tightened, blocked by blocks rounded like rollers, Agnone leaps in cascades, is spread out over the granitic pads and calms its movements in basins. Good bathe.

      On the level of the first beautiful cascades one leaves feels rather visible, which crosses a chaos of blocks before offering an overall picture on the forest. The distribution of the gasolines is noticed: the pines climb the snow-covered pyramid of Goes up of Oro and the hêtraie is spread like a vegetable flood on all the valley. One emerges from the foliage under the fort of Vizzavona whose lace walls make think of a ruin after a bombardment. Of its strategic position on an eminence, it embraces all the landscape and controls the passage of the coll One continues full Is. The principal track which leaves the trunk road, goes down to the bridge opposite the refreshment bar and catches up with the path borrowed at the time of the outward journey.

      For this splendid excursion, it is necessary to count approximately 3 hours outward journey/return, for uneven of 270 meters. Good functioning.
