Capu Tondu 839 m, Corsica 5 by Tobias

That was a beautiful mountain tour. The maquis grows on the sides of the path for long stretches, so you can easily get a few scratches on your legs. Finding the path at the rocky summit is not easy in places. Especially on the descent, you sometimes have to search for the trail markings.
