Hike "Tête de chien"
The hike to Tête de Chien in Piana is a trail I really enjoy.
It offers magnificent views of the famous calanques.
Hike "Le sentier du facteur"
A fantastic hike to visit Girolata, a small coastal village only accessible by this trail (or by boat).
The postman used to hike this trail every day to deliver mail to the village residents!
Creno lake
Lake Creno is the lowest of the Corsican glacial lakes. Located in the heart of a Laricio pine forest, it is bordered by peat bogs and water lilies.

Shops and groceries
At the villa, we are conveniently located for your essential needs.
Just 700 meters away, you'll find a Spar ideal for quick shopping. If you need to do more extensive shopping, a Super U is located a few kilometers away, and you can even shop online with their drive-through service.
To discover Corsican delights, I highly recommend the local grocery store "Art et Terroir". There you'll find an authentic selection of local products.
Finally, for fans of fresh pastries, the small bakery just downstairs offers croissants and pain au chocolat that will delight your taste buds at breakfast. In summary, everything is at your disposal for an enjoyable stay at the villa.
