A protected natural space to admire and protect. Breathe in the scent of the maquis!

The Lisula region will seduce you with its special colors, a tasteful blend of blues and greens that change from season to season.

From its natural and wild shores to its ancient forests, Lisula is a destination where nature is majestic, intense and yet so sensitive.

Depending on your activities and discoveries, immerse yourself in the heart of the Agriate Marine Park, walk along the paths on the beach of Ostriconi at sunset or venture to the high peaks of Ghjunsani and its Tartagine forest.

Lisula, the most beautiful part of the island of Corsica!

More than a journey, the promise of an encounter!

Lisula and Corsica have always been a place of exchanges and meetings, and Lisula shares this richness with you during your stay. The people here are artisans, producers of organic cosmetics, farmers, winemakers, polyphonic singers. They are the men and women who invite you and let you in on their history and personalities, whether through guided tours or personal encounters, to show you what Lisula is all about.

Gastronomic encounters: Meet a sausage producer and learn about his profession from the raising to the tasting of this indispensable product of Corsican gastronomy. If it is wine that awakens your taste buds, the young winemaker of Domaine Maestracci will tell you the secrets of her business and will seduce your palate with the tasting of her production.

Artistic encounters: Men and women, producers, artisans, they work every day to continue the artistic heritage of their land and their ancestors. They are violin makers, potters, jewelry designers, basket weavers and welcome you in their workshops to explain their passion with an open heart.

A playground between sea, maquis and mountains

Lisula is a perfect combination of the many Corsican landscapes: a rugged coastline, valleys immersed in the maquis, dizzying peaks that can compete with the most beautiful mountains and a forest of chestnut trees and Laricio pines with a river with small natural pools.

For young and old, for adventurers or Sunday sports enthusiasts, in the air, on the land or on the water - here everyone will find their happiness and the opportunity to surpass themselves in a magnificent and dynamic landscape.

Cultural richness from near and far

Often conquered, never subjugated, Lisula combines the cultural richness of near and far.

It is the love for the history of the region and the passion to pass it on that today gives us unique experiences: Concerts with polyphonic songs by groups that originated in the small villages, artistic musical creation with the Centre National de Création Musicale in Pigna and its famous Festivoce, a festival of voices from Corsica and other countries, cinematic pleasure with the film festival Lama sous les étoiles and the Lisula CineMusica meetings in L'Ile-Rousse, the beauty of the language of body and mind with the Rencontres Internationales de Théâtre du Ghjunsani directed by the actor Robin Renucci. ..

So many passions to discover, enjoy and share, for a stay that is no longer a simple vacation, but a journey to the heart of Lisula.

Rando 35 : Natura 2000 - Vallica by Karel
June 24, 2024 · Community
The route is marked with orange dots on trees and stones on the ground. the circular walk runs over rocky paths and gravel roads through a primeval forest of green oaks. First you descend to the river and end with a climb to the village of Vallica. We enjoyed.
