At this bridge, the Le Vecchio river invites you to swim. So don’t hesitate!

Vecchio River Swimming Spot

Highlight • River

The Vecchio rises on the Monte d'Oro and is initially called Agnone. This river is best known for its Cascades des Anglais, which attract hundreds of tourists every day in high season. From the hamlet of Vizzavona onwards, the river is called Vecchio and you only meet very few people. Shortly after entering Canaglia, it joins the Manganello. Here the Vecchio valley becomes very lonely. On the right-hand side, far above the riverbed, the railway line winds its way along the hills, barely visible. You don't notice the busy T20, which lies behind the hills. You only see it when you get off at the Ponte Vecchio. High above us, it crosses the Vecchio valley on the new bridge. Later, the Vecchio flows into the Tavignano, which reaches the sea near Aléria.

Don't walk this trail with a dog! We were attacked by loose sheepdogs and the hike ended in the hospital!

The loop back bit of this walk is blocked as private land so you have to just walk back along the path you came down on. Bit disappointing. The walk down is OK, but the bathing spot and bridge is spectacular!
So. Finally on the new island and started running with Johanna. The path through the forest was... yeah... pretty but the swimming spot at the end was great!
By the way: 8.88 km - 4.4 kmh - 330 meters up and that in 2 hours and 2 minutes. Number mystics will have fun :)
