My husband and I are hoping to do some hiking in Corsica in late March or early April, 2008. We have the lonely planet Corsica and Eyewitness Travel Guide. The distances and the times required don%26#39;t really make sense to us - ie 10km taking 6 hours. Does anyone have any first hand experience with some of these non-GR 20 hikes in Corsica. Any info would be appreciated or if you can direct us to a web site/blog that would be great.

All Corsican long-distance path are described here:
corsica.forhikers.com/long-distance-paths
Times required depend on your fitness level, elevation gain, how much scrambling is necessary, weight of your backpack etc.
BTW, current record for running the GR20 non-stop is 36h53m, while normal time is 16 days :-)

Check your messages on how to reach me for my 2003 Corsica travel journal with a lot of non-GR 20 hiking info.
