J'ecrirai ce rapport en plusieurs parties.
Je commence ici par l'info prioritaire: mes meilleures randos au Grand Canyon et Sud Utah.
- Descente au fond du Grand Canyon: top priorite. A faire absolument. Essayer d'obtenir le permis backcountry pour camper au fond, soit en reservant (il faut le faire le 1er jour au matin de l'ouverture des reservations), soit a la derniere minute (j'ai obtenu le permis pour le lendemain; si vous attendez 2 ou 3 jours vous etes surs de l'avoir).
Essayez de pouvoir camper a Clear Creek, sinon allez-y en une longue journee de Bright Angel Camping, pour sortir de la masse de touristes.
Possible aussi dans la journee (beaucoup plus difficile en ete)
- Paria Canyon/Buckskin Gulch: le permis de rando (camping) se reserve sur le web. Facile. Canyons etroits et verticaux. Essayez de camper au minimum 1 nuit, mieux 2 nuits. De White Horse, permet de descendre au moins jusqu'au mile 12 de Paria River (la plus belle partie et les sources) et de remonter Buckskin Gulch sur au moins une heure. Avec 2 voitures ou en payant un transfert, possible de faire des traversees. Possible aussi en un jour mais long et moins bien (de While Horse au confluent de Buskskin Gulch et 30 minutes dans Buckskin Gulch)
- Coyote Gulch Canyon (a Escalante): a faire seulement en rando (une ou deux nuits de camping). Pas besoin de permis a l'avance. Facile. 1h30 de piste penible a 1h30 a pied avant d'arriver dans le canyon, mais alors idyllique, formations rocheuses, vegetation et petit ruisseau. (Pour marche d'un jour, choisir l'Escalante en amont depuis le pont)
- Fish and Owl Canyons, et/ou Grand Gulch (pres de Blanding). Possible en une longue journee, mais mieux en rando. Reservation a l'avance au telephone (BLM Monticello) ou sur place chez les rangers de Kane Gulch. Fish and Owl: 1 jour 1/2, circuit, tres beau, quasi personne. Grand Gulch: longs treks possibles mais il faut 2 voitures. Pour court trek, Bullit Canyon A/R moins beau naturellement que Fish and Owl mais ruines indiennes (Perfect Kiva, Jailhouse et 3 de plus si vous descendez jusqu'a Grand Gulch et tournez un peu a droite).
Nul doute que ton rapport va sortir de l'ordinaire... mais cela ne va concerner que les baroudeurs hors pair...
Malgré tout (je ne suis qu'une toute.... toute.... toute petite aventurière!...) je vais suivre ton post🙂

On est vraiment dans le top :
Pour info j'ai déjà fait :
* Grand Canyon : descente par la South Kaibab Trail et remontée par la North Kaibab Trailk (3 jours).
* Paria River Trail : c'est à dire ce que tu indiques + jusqu'à Lees Ferry. 3 jours. Et là on est dans le top du top
C'est ça le wilderness.
Cordialement.
Jean-Jacques
Non ces randonnees, a part le GC (lui meme pas plus dur qu'une excursion sans les Alpes ou Pyrenees en dehors des chaleurs de l'ete), sont faciles, on y rencontre des familles americaines avec de jeunes enfants.
SUITE: ballades plus courtes at autres randos a recommander
- Bryce: Devils Garden navajo Peckaboo. 1/2 journee. Il faut absolument faire une marche qui descend depuis le bord. Voir du dessus n'est pas suffisant
- Zion Angel's Landing courte montee (j'ai mis 58 minutes) pour fantastique panorame. Soit tres tot le matin, soit en fin d'apres-midi (pour la chaleur et la foule), vous pouvez continuer jusqu'au West/Rim
- ou/et Observation Point. Autre point de vue, plus long, tres tres bien aussi
- Zion Kolob Arch / LaVerkin Canyon, dans une partir moins frequentee du parc. Encore un excellent choix surtout pour y camper (backcountry) une nuit dans la tres plaisante vallee (campsite #4 et plus)
- Escalante River en amont depuis le pont. Peu de monde, surtout si vous continuez apres le pont et l'arche naturels, le canyon devient plus reserre, vous pouvez en faire toute une journee
- Phipps Canyon: du meme pont, prendre l'Escalante en aval mais ensuivwe remontez le 1er canyon secondaire a droite, Phipps canyon. Peu de monde, agreable et varie. Toute la journee.
- Capital Reef: courtes marches sur la Scenic Drive. 2 canyons tres verticaux et faciles. Du monde, bien sur (pour etre seuls choisissez alors Chimney Rock canyon)
- Canyonlands: Syncline Trail, 1/2 journee +, a la fin ecartez vous un peu du sentier pour vois l'interieur du dome
- Canyonlands Needles Pour apprecier, il faut faire une rendo d'une journee entiere
- Bells - Little White Horse Canyons (entre Green River et Hackberry). LWH est le canyon le plus etroit que vous verrez ... il devient vite difficile d'ailleurs, mais le debut est tres facile. Bells C (au m endroit) est facile de bout en bout
" Little White Horse Canyons (entre Green River et Hackberry). LWH est le canyon le plus etroit que vous verrez "
Ah... bon... je croyais que le Spooky (sur la HITRR) était encore plus étroit (je connais le LWH... et je vais faire le Spooky en juillet)... En tout cas d'après les photos, le Spooky m'a l'air ultra étroit....

SUITE
Quelques mqrches moins conseillees:
- Upper Muley Twist (Capitol Reef) pas d'un enorme interet, sauf le point de vue au parking des 4x4 au debut de la marche
- Lower Muley Twist: mieux que le precedent, on peut obtenir un permis backcountry pour y camper, mais il y a mieux (voir plus haut) et detour
- The Gulch (vers l'aval) sur la meme route, long et sans grand interet
- La marche entre les 3 ponts a Natural Bridges NM. Les ponts sont tres interessants, mais la marche entre est longue et j'ai indique plus haut de bien meilleures randos dans le coin
- La marche (courte) sur Hermit Trail vers Hermit Rest au Grand Canyon: la aussi, il y a mieux (voir plus haut)
CAMPING dans les parcs:
- Mather CG au Grand Canyon: spacieux, dans les arbres, tres agreable. Pas plein mi avril (mais nuits sous les 0°)
- Natural Bridges NM: tout petit, peu de chance de trouver de la place. Mais camping gratuit sur les terres du BLM a la sortie du parc- Canyonlands: Squaw Flat (Needles) agreable, verdure, arriver entre 8 et 10 heures du matin. Willow Flat (Island in the Sky) desert, peu engageant, tout petit
- Capitol Reef: Fruita CG dans l'oasis, tres plaisant, plein vers 15-16 heures fin avril
- Escalante: Calf Creek CG: plaisant et bien situe (voir marches plus haut; le pont sur l'Escalante est a 1 mile), mais tout petit. AVoir de la chance pour les emplacements 1 (acces a pied) ou 2 (petite voiture seulement), sans grand espoir pour les autres sites
- Bryce: dans la foret, spacieux, agreable, pas plein mi-mai (mais neige et gel au programme)
- Zion: 2 campings, aucun des deux n'est vraiment agreable (tres chaud), South CG est premier arrive premier servi, il faut arriver entre 7 et 10 heures du matin pour avoir une chance. (Backcountry camping sur l'East Rim ou le West Rim plus plaisant, ainsi qu'a Kolob Canyon)
- Beau temps en general mais quelques passages de tempetes avec vent violent, egalement neige en altitude (Bryce)
- Vu 5 serpents, tous non venimeux et un grand scorpion
- Certains torrents sont tres hauts au printemps, en paticulier a Zion (Narrows inpraticable). Mais ce n'esy pas le cas de la Paria
- Terminaux Internet: dans les bibliotheques (cher au Grand Canyon, sinon gratuit ou tres bon marche). Parfois limite a 15 ou 30 minutes. Mais a Springdale (Zion), tres bien. A Moab aussi. Parfois dans les Tourist Information (Blanding, Cedar City). Cybercafe abordable a Torrey.
- Motels: les Motel6 sont la chaine la moins chere, et c'est parfait. Inutile de payer plus cher. EVITER MOAB: tres cher, deux fois et demi plus cher qu'a Green River.
- Voiture de location: louee a Phoenix. Rendue a San Fransisco sans supplement (dropoff charge). Essence entre 3,50 et 4 $ le gallon, meme dans les villages recules. Supermarches abordables aussi meme aux endroits recules comme Escalante, mais Walmart est de loin le moins cher (il y en a un a Page).

Je rajouterais (pour les passages étroits)...
"Crack in the wall" à Escalante ! 😉
Photos à l'appui (mai 2011) :

Comme j'étais seul pour Crack in the wall j'ai pris mon chapeau et mon sac pour donner l'échelle :
heureusement le soleil était pile dans l'axe ! 😎
Merci... je note pour un prochain voyage... car, là, j'ai déjà tellement prévu de slots canyons pour juillet prochain... que je risque de friser l'overdose 😛😎

Merci 😊
Le blog de votre voyage en 2009 dans l'Ouest est très réussi !
J'ai admiré votre courage d'aller jusqu'au Subway de Zion (ça m'encourage à le faire la prochaine fois !)
les photos de Cathedral Valley m'ont rappelé de bons souvenirs :
le soleil qui tombe juste sur une des montagnes, ça rend bien ! 😎
- Descente au fond du Grand Canyon: top priorite. A faire absolument. Essayer d'obtenir le permis backcountry pour camper au fond, soit en reservant (il faut le faire le 1er jour au matin de l'ouverture des reservations), soit a la derniere minute (j'ai obtenu le permis pour le lendemain; si vous attendez 2 ou 3 jours vous etes surs de l'avoir).
Bonjour,
C'est un truc qui m'intéresse mais les réservations c'est pas mon fort..ça veut dire quoi exactement" le premier jour au matin de l'ouverture des réservations"? Elles ont lieu à partir de quand ces réservations?
Je ne sais pas car la reglementation change. Pour avril 2011, les reservations demarraient le 1er decembre 2010. Tu dois aller sur le site officiel du pac national, lire tout ce qui concerne le 'Backcountry' et decharger le formulaire a envoyer.
Ah je comprends mieux faut s'y prendre environ 5- 6 mois avant..c'est variable d'une année sur l'autre..bon je vais voir ça de plus près..
Merci pour l'nfo.
Il faut un permis pour camper dans le Backcountry, c'est a dire en dehors des grands campings organises sur le North Rim et le South Rim. Ces permis sont tres tres demandes, pour esperer l'obtenir il faut envoyer sa demande le 1er jour de l'ouverture des reservations a l'ouverture des bureaux. Une autre possibilite est de demander un permis en derniere minute, ce qui m'a bien reussi, mais il se peut que tu doives attendre 2 ou 3 jours.
EVITER MOAB: tres cher, deux fois et demi plus cher qu'a Green River.
Faut voir aussi que green river et en train de devenir une ville fantome, que d'hotel ou restaurant et bar laisser à l'abandon.J'ai traversé la ville en juin dernier ca m'avait marquer cette ville avec sa main street delabrée😐
Natural Bridges NM: tout petit, peu de chance de trouver de la place. Mais camping gratuit sur les terres du BLM a la sortie du parc
Bonjour Pierre,
C'est vraiment un beau compte rendu pour les "baroudeurs de l'extrême" (j'exagère... mais il faut être quand même en bonne forme !). C'est digne de l'Ami Sedonax.. dit Philippe.
Un de ces jours (???) je passerais à Natural Bridge en camping-car, et ta remarque m'interpelle:
Comment procéder pour camper "sauvage" près de ce parc, et géographiquement parlant, à quel endroit par rapport au Visitor Center de Natural Bridges ?
Comme je l'ai ecrit, le camping 'dispersed' gratuit est autorise le long des pistes sur les terres du BLM et National Forest juste avant l'entree du parc. Si tu demandes au bureau d'information, ou chez les Rangers de Kane Gulch, ils te conseilleront.
- Vol sur Denver et location de voiture - Montagne beaucoup plus sauvage qu'un Europe, moins de monde, beaucoup d'animaux (y compris 3 fois des ours). Mais, en…
Nous partons dans les rocheuses canadiennes pour un peu plus de 3 semaines à la fin de l'été 2014 avec une arrivée et un départ de Seattle. Si notre temps sur…
Hi there,
We’re planning an 8-day backpacking trip on the island of São Nicolau. We’re torn between taking the boat from São Vicente or an inter-island flight. I’ve heard the boats don’t always run?
We’d like to make three homestay stops to travel in a star pattern from each of the three points.
First stop around Juncalinho, second stop near Cachaco, and finally a third leg near Tarrafal. We’re looking for simple but authentic guesthouses (no hotels). Any suggestions?
Thanks
Hi there! We’re a couple setting off to walk the Porto to Fisterra trail on September 15th… We’re torn between the coastal route and the inland path—apparently, the latter has a lot of roadside sections. We’d love to hear about your experiences if you’ve done either! Thanks…
Hello,
In mid-November, we’ll be in Mindelo and Santo Antão.
We’ve booked transportation with Kapverden Tours.
One trip is from Porto Novo to Ponta do Sol, including the hike from Corda to Coculi.
What’s the trail like?
Then we’ll be staying in Ponta do Sol,
Here’s what we’re planning:
A hike to Fontainhas—what’s the best direction, considering we’re not great with climbs? No problem with flat terrain or descents.
Take an aluguer to Ribeira Grande and continue along the coastal road.
With the agency:
An excursion to Cruzinha with a short walk.
Return to Porto Novo via the path from Cova to… I’m not sure where yet, to pick up the car for Porto Novo, since we’ll be taking the ferry that evening.
We’ll have a guide for this hike.
We’d love to spend a day in Tarrafal, but getting back requires a boat or taxi, and it’s really expensive!
We’re a couple, 78 and 76 years old.
What do you think of this itinerary?
I’m planning to do the Mercantour crossing following the Randoxygène route in mid-July.
I’m used to hiking in the mountains, but I sometimes get vertigo, for example on ridges with drops on both sides. I wanted to check if there are any T4 or T3-T4 sections and find out if there are any very exposed passages—and if so, where—so I can plan an alternative route.
Can anyone give me some info on this?
Thanks!
hi how can I get internet when I arrive at Haneda? I mean in areas without free wifi. Is it more interesting to buy a SIM card? If so, at the airport? thanks for your help
We're planning to go at the end of November/beginning of December to visit (with a rental car) and hike on La Palma and El Hierro for 15 full days, including 1 day for inter-island ferry transfers. What’s the best split between the two islands—8 days on La Palma and 6 on El Hierro, or even more time for La Palma? Should we have one or two home bases on La Palma? Thanks for your tips!

Hi there,
I’m planning to cross the Gourgs Blancs Pass at the end of the month, from La Soula Refuge to Portillon Refuge. On this section near the pass, I don’t have any trail marked on my IGN map. Is the path well signposted, or should I use a compass?
Also, beyond the physical effort, are there any technical, exposed, or vertigo-inducing sections on this part?
Since I’m finding very little info, I’m being thorough with my questions.
I'm developing a free and open-source web app for planning walking and cycling trips (and even car trips). You can create a route by clicking directly on the map to add waypoints, and it can consist of multiple stages. The app provides tools to edit the stages and the overall route, and to display useful information (distances, altitudes, and elevation changes). A relief profile can be shown as a graph for a specific stage or the entire route.
Once the route is ready, it can be exported as a GPX file, which can then be used with a GPS or a mobile navigation app.
The app is built in JavaScript and runs entirely in the web browser. It uses the Leaflet library and several OpenStreetMap-based services. Initially developed for my personal needs (I enjoy hiking and cycle touring), I’d be happy to share it with anyone who might find it useful. It’s free to use, doesn’t require an account, and the source code is available.
Not very well known: Hokkaido Island has national parks that rival those in North America. Hiking there is free (even many mountain huts) and requires no formalities. These treks are described in the LP *Hiking in Japan* guide—you can just buy the Hokkaido PDF. It’s way better than Mount Fuji. Of course, everything depends on the weather, which is very unstable in the Japanese mountains (frequent strong winds). The trails are often obstacle courses.
The Daisetsu Zan traverse is a stunning hike through volcanic terrain with a remote section in the middle that requires at least one night of camping (there are basic huts for the rest, which is popular with Japanese hikers): 4 to 6 days.
The Shiretoko traverse takes 2 days with views including an island in Russia, but the ridge is brown bear territory—there are even more here than in Denali National Park in Alaska (brown bears and grizzlies are the same). I ran into 7 in just 6 hours of hiking!
Hi everyone,
I’m leaving on Monday, August 3rd for my very first long-distance trek: the GR223 from Coutances to Mont Saint-Michel, over 6-7 days (~11-14 miles/day), solo.
I’m looking for tips from people who know this section well (Coutances → Regnéville-sur-Mer → Hauteville-sur-Mer → Bréhal → Granville → Genêts → bay crossing):
Budget-friendly accommodations: I’m struggling to find affordable stopover lodgings (a lot of what I find online are expensive vacation rentals, not really suited for a solo hiker). If you have any great spots (hostels, hiker-friendly B&Bs, nice campgrounds), I’d love to hear them!
Bay crossing: Any feedback on guides/providers leaving from Genêts for the final crossing?
General tips for a first long-distance trek: What you wish you’d known before your first time, pitfalls to avoid, etc.
Hi,
We’re planning to do the 4-day trek from Mestia to Ushguli without an agency. The descriptions mention that there are accommodations at each stop, but we can’t find any details about them. Has anyone got info or feedback on this route?
New to this forum, I’m planning a pretty big project for 2028.
I’m heading to Nepal to do a trek from Kathmandu all the way to Everest Base Camp (a cool 5,300 m 😄).
This trek is a bit special because even though I’ll be part of a group, I’m going solo (so far, no problem—I’m used to it). But it’s my first real trek, and it’s also a humanitarian one: once I reach base camp, I’ll stay an extra week to help clean up the waste left by tens of thousands of climbers! Since I’m originally from South America, from two countries that share the Andes, I have a deep respect for mountains—they fascinate me. So Everest… it’s kind of the trip of a lifetime!
So, a little question for those who’ve done treks to Everest before… any tips for good mental preparation (I’m already working on the physical side)?
We're planning to trek in Peru and Bolivia and would love to find some local agencies.
If you know any, could you share details on prices and, of course, the names of the agencies?
Which trek would you recommend?
Elocine
I'm heading out on a fully self-sufficient trek in Morocco (10 days) from Imilchil to Aghbalou.
Can I find screw-on gas canisters (Coleman, Primus) in Marrakech (any addresses?) or in villages between Imilchil and Aghbalou?
If not, are Butagaz canisters for camping gas (small 230g size) available?
Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hello, I’d like to embark on a little trip in my home country, Switzerland. I’ll start walking from La Cure, heading toward Le Noirmont first, then I’ll improvise my route—but it’ll probably follow the French border... at least as far as Lac de Joux.
I’ll decide day by day how much farther to go after that. My goal is to stay in nature as much as possible, wander around for as long as I can, and restock food in villages or towns along the way.
I’m thinking of mostly camping, but we’ll see if I end up in a hotel or another campsite depending on my route.
I’d love to reach La Chaux-de-Fonds on foot... maybe even Delémont.
The whole thing should take about a week, give or take.
I’ll be bringing my dog, and I’m preparing for this as soon as I’m ready.
Any tips to make sure everything goes smoothly for us? Things I should know—or avoid? What about shepherds with their flocks of sheep? And isn’t hunting season open right now?
I’m not sure if what I’m planning is even doable, which is why I’m asking around.
This’ll be my first time doing something like this—wandering in nature *and* with a dog. I’m really excited for this adventure... and I need it. Thanks!
We’re really keen on ecosystems and want to hike in "natural" ancient forests—not planted woods or areas heavily degraded by human activity. Travel guides (like Lonely Planet) don’t provide much info on this. Could you point us to the most interesting spots?
Thanks in advance for your tips.
We wish you happy holidays and a fantastic 2026, full of discoveries!
Claire and Albert
Hi, this might not be the right section, but I’d like to know if it’s possible to start mountaineering with another person without necessarily hiring a guide. We’ve done quite a bit of hiking but not mountaineering—we’ll just do a half-day glacier course. After that, we were thinking of starting with La Grande Motte and the Pointe de la Traversière, which were recommended to us. Honestly, for things like roping up and knots, I’ll learn at home with lots of videos and a book.
I’d love to know if anyone has done treks in the Rwenzori Mountains and how much it costs on average, what the infrastructure is like, the landscapes, and safety in the area. Thanks so much! I’m really looking forward to your replies.
We’re leaving in 9 days for a two-week trip to Madeira, mainly to hike.
From my research, I’ve found that since last year, access to most trails—and systematically for the most popular ones—is now paid. You have to pay an access fee of 4.50 € per person per classified hike in 2026, and even 10.50 € for the most iconic hike: Pico Arieiro to Pico Ruivo. When paying, you also have to choose a day and a 30-minute time slot for your start time. Of course, this reservation is neither changeable nor refundable, even if the weather that day is terrible.
Personally, given the massive influx of tourists to the island in recent years, I don’t mind paying a fee to help maintain the trails. Similarly, setting a limit on the number of people who can hike them per day is certainly preferable to preserve this priceless heritage.
However, what’s much less fair is that in reality, most of the available spots are reserved: 1/ for Madeira residents (which is normal); 2/ for "economic operators" (meaning local tour operators). For example, if you’re a non-resident (independent tourist), no booking is possible for the Pico Arieiro hike for an early morning start before September! So, unfortunately, we’ll have to skip this hike.
It’s the same issue for Ponta de São Lourenço, the 25 Fontes, Pico Ruivo... in short, all the most popular hikes. Oh well, we’ll skip those too!
So my question is: which hikes do you recommend where we won’t face the huge crowds that the others get? And where we can book the day before for the next day, taking the weather into account?
Finally, a quick accommodation question: we’ve booked the first week in Funchal, but I haven’t decided yet for the second week. Do you have any advice on where to stay in the south or north, preferably avoiding overly concrete-heavy and touristy spots?
I’m reposting about the logistics for Samaria Gorge.
I’d love to get recent info, especially about whether it’s possible to park my car in Omalos, do the hike, and then catch a bus back to my vehicle.
In theory, it’s doable, but when you check the KTEL website, there aren’t any feasible schedules listed. If anyone has recently organized this with reliable, verified details, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
We’re flying from Montreal to Lyon this August to go hiking in the French Alps. We’ve rented a car and will be staying at campgrounds. We’re planning to do day hikes and want to stay a few days in one spot, do a few hikes, then move on to our next camping spot. Could you share your favorite spots or any recommendations for places to spend a few days with great hikes?
A few details:
We arrive in early August and leave in early September.
We’re looking for day hikes (or shorter), moderate difficulty, with a cumulative elevation gain of no more than 1000m, and of course, beautiful scenery!
We’d prefer not to drive too much—maybe it’s best not to head too far south and deal with unnecessary heat?
Along the same lines, if you know of any great campgrounds where we can start our hike directly without needing the car, we’d love to hear your suggestions!
Hi there,
I’m planning to go hiking on this island and would like to know the best time to do it. I visited for a few days in November 2018—not for hiking but just to explore—and the weather wasn’t great, especially in the mountains. So, is a star-shaped itinerary doable if I rent a car and maybe use two different accommodations?
I’m not planning to join an organized group—just traveling with one other person and organizing things ourselves—unless you’d recommend a local agency or guide. Finally, even though I’ll be getting maps, a topo guide, and a GPS, I’d really appreciate your top hiking recommendations.
Thanks so much for your tips!
I’m planning a trip around Cap Corse and the AGRIATES in 2026, from May 8th to 15th (there are still 2 spots left, by the way! Just DM me if you're interested).
I’d love to know which hikes are worth prioritizing in the AGRIATES. We’ll be staying in SALECCIA for two days as our base—what should we focus on from there?
A round trip to IGNHU beach? Any other suggestions?
For Ostricano, I think it’s too far for a round trip...
Thanks for your tips!
Have a great day,
Anie, Toulouse
I’d like to get some info about the GR10 Pyrenees traverse. I need help planning the daily stages and accommodations—my wife isn’t an experienced hiker but walks a lot, so I’d like to schedule shorter walking days and thus a longer overall trip in terms of number of days.
Could anyone give me some help and advice?
Best regards,
Hi there, I’m planning the Annapurna Circuit for March 2027 and I’m looking for a local agency with a local guide—preferably French-speaking—to arrange this trek for us. Any suggestions? Thanks
Hello!
We’re spending a few days in Toraja country at the end of May. We’d love to do a day trek—taking our time—on a route that’s stunning in terms of scenery, but not a level 5 in difficulty!
Any suggestions you can share, please?
Thanks in advance
I’d like to do the Mare a Mare Sud in May over 4 days. I’ve found quite a few places to stay along the route, but I’m stuck on the start and finish.
I’ll be arriving by plane on Sunday evening and would like to start pretty early on Monday morning. Ideally, accommodation right at the trailhead (Alzu di Gallina) would be amazing, but I can’t find anything. Any tips?
Also, for the transfer from Figari Airport to Porto Vecchio or Alzu di Gallina?
At the end, I’d like to pick up a rental car—any advice on that too?
