With its white sand beaches,
its scented maquis or bush,
its hamlets with
their slate and stone roofs, its natural springs, its grotto,
its ancient stone bridges,
towers and beautiful fountains, the Pietracorbara
valley (Petracurbara in Corsican) is one of the most authentic
and best preserved villages in the Cap Corse (the northern part
of the island).
Located on the east coast,
only half an hour from Bastia by car, Pietracorbara is 26 square
kilometers of history, tradition and natural beauty. Bordered by
five kilometers of dramatic coastline facing the islands of Caprai
and Elbe, the valley backs onto a vast mountain range (in less than
12 kilometers as the crow flies, the altitude goes from 0 to 1300
m!).
Petra Viva, an association for the defense
and promotion of Pietracorbara, invites you to take a virtual voyage
of discovery. Let the many charms of the valley incite you to visit!
