Piscines naturelles du Manganellu

Highlight • River

Wonderful place to swim in the Manganellu. There are many basins and natural pools all along the river. Here, in the heart of the Vizzavona forest, it is a real corner of paradise.

Fantastic forest section following the mangadelano stream

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The section does not want to fit the GR20. Flat, easy to walk, cozy ... who has mastered the previous stages, feels here on a completely different trail. A treat …

Meli Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

Is not right on the GR20. Whether a visit is worth, everyone has to decide for themselves. It accumulate many great bath pumps, even if it is not lacking on this tour anyway.

The pure hiking time was 7.15h. Shortly before the Bergeries de Tolla, be sure to climb the hill about 200m. From there you have a great all-round view of the mountains. You can also see the Monte Rontondo. Great pools on the tour !!

A great hike to cascades that are among the most beautiful on the island. Moderately strenuous overall, with many swimming opportunities in great plunge pools.

Mega beautiful hike through the Manganello valley. You will pass a number of bathing pools and waterfalls here. highlights. of course the impressive waterfall Cascade du Meli. The path initially follows the Mare Mare route and then merges into the GR20. The ascent to Monte Rotondo via Petra Piana would be interesting.

Since I was missing the last stage …
