#8 - GR20 Segment 7: From Manganu to Pietra Piana
Parc naturel régional de CorseLength: 5.1 mi • Est. 3 h 59 m
The entire GR20 takes around 12 days to cover. It begins in Cadenza in the north and ends in Conca in the south. It can be done both ways. It is well marked with red and white markers. The best time to do the trek is from late May / early June to late October. July and August tend to see a lot of people. There are shelters along the way. You can pay to stay at a shelter, but you can also pay a fee to camp at a site if you brought a tent. Camping along the GR20 is prohibited except on a refuge site. If you are doing the entire hike, plan to stay at multiple huts during your trip. They also cook and sell food. The best place to stock up on supplies is Vizzanova; however, some reserves can be purchased at Asco Stagnu, Castel di Vergio, Bavella. Make sure to bring a filter or drops as it is a long trek. No problems with the water supply have been reported, but do not hesitate to speak to the residents of the shelters for the most recent information.
