Monte Tolu
21 October 2018Our first walk on Corsica and not too challenging, but nonetheless finishing with some exciting but safe scrambling to reach the summit. Unfortunately cloud blew in from the sea on the ascent, but we were still able to enjoy cracking views from the summit as the clouds opened and closed before our eyes.

The final stretch to the summit was much steeper than this, with 10 minutes of proper scrambling

And then the cloud was gone for 30 minutes and we ate lunch
