Corsica (Corse): inexpensive ski resorts

Buy snow Corsica

Skiing in Corsica? Yes it really is possible. You can hit the snow and sea in the same day and visit one of the most beautiful parts of France while you are there. The bonus is the walking trail, the mythic GR20, much of it at a height of metres through the Corsican Regional Park. The palm trees and beaches everyone talks about are just the beautiful fringe round the edges of the mountain range that covers the island. If you want a change from your usual winter holiday it is a good place to go for a bit of mild adventure and breath-taking scenery. Manu Rioualec of Montagnes de Corse, a qualified high mountain guide, leads ski tours on the Haute route with his partner Eric Specia. Manu says the best time for skiing in Corsica is usually March. The snow comes late-winter, at the beginning of February, and can be skiable until May in the high mountains. There are two small resorts for alpine skiing. The nearest village is Bastelica. The little resort was built in the s a nd the first ski lifts began operating in From the village of Bastelica take the panoramic D27A. After 14 kilometres you come to the car park for the resort. There is a French ESF ski school with three instructors. Since the ski area has doubled in size. There are four red runs, one blue, one green and a small snowpark. Sadly whoever designed it placed the main runs on south-facing slopes. This means the snow disappears quickly when it gets warm. However the short distance to Ajaccio makes up for this. The second resort is Ghisoni Capanelle and is more difficult to access. The lifts take you up to m at the top of the Capaghiolu ski lift. The resort has three ski lifts and seven slopes. The third station, Haute Ascu, used to have the best snowfall in Corsica. But it has been closed since , after a rain storm caused immense damage. The local federation says that they hope that the resort will reopen soon. Given the relatively big investment required in these hard times, local experts are inclined to doubt this. Skiing in Corsica offers the opportunity to ski in the morning and surf on the Med in the afternoon. What is really special — in summer as well as winter — is the famous GR20, which in winter becomes the Haute Route or the Alta Strada. According to the local tourist authority you can travel the GR20 on skis. But it is a considerable technical challenge not to be lightly undertaken. Note this is the tourist authority talking here, so you can take it as red. It really can get quite exciting at 2, metres exposed to the full force of whatever the Med decides to throw at you. So within minutes of arriving you are cosy and able to relax. Sure it is a bit basic but it is breathtakingly beautiful. In fact it is one of the most beautiful high routes and the freeriding can be fabulous. He is well known for trekking and leads week-long snowshoe treks. He was the first guide in Corsica to gain the coveted national high mountain guide certificate. It was sort of about autonomy, a sort of nationalism if you like. I wanted the Corsican mountains to have Corsican guides. Now there are about 10 of us. To qualify I had to go to Chamonix because there is only one centre in France where you can qualify. I learned to work with ice. For me ice was what I put in my Pernod — I had never seen a glacier before. But it is a government qualification and I had to go through it all. You can do the south half only which is much less challenging. The north section is really quite serious mountaineering. Anyway I find my clients generally can only come for a week. And if you want to do the whole route it takes 12 days easily, maybe So we do the southern half and that is enough for most people. And if you have a chance to see the programme you will be surprised by the quantity of the snow. We asked Jean Paul if you have to be super-fit for snowshoeing. After half an hour you get the idea. One of the best features of hiking and skiing on the island are the views of the sea. When I do the Coucholles you can see the Gulf of Propriano. And when we climb higher you can see the Gulf of Ajaccio on the western side of the island. If you want big-time skiing you go to Val Thorens. You do the route from Chamonix to Zermatt with central heating in the refuges and you wear slippers in the evening. But if you want great scenery and a bit of adventure with your skiing, off the beaten track, come to Corsica. Jean-Paul Quilici — www. Corsica regional park — www. The best ski resorts in Austria.
