Experts' Choice Award Gorges De La Restonica
What the experts agree on
Spectacular high-altitude hiking destination near Corte with two glacial lakes—Lac de Mélo reachable in two hours, Lac de Capitello another hour up. Bring proper boots for the rugged terrain and mountain views.
“The source of the Restonica rises at an altitude of 1 711m in the Rotondo massif, one of the island's highest.”

Fodor's "A two-hour climb will take you to Lac de Mélo, a trout-filled mountain lake 6,528 feet above sea level. Another hour up is the usually snow-bordered Lac de Capitello." Full review
