Musée Fesch

Tête de Mort
This hike starts from the Bois des Anglais up to the famous ghostly looking rock. Along the way you’ll pass old shepard’s houses, bunches of wild olives and native flowers. From the top, you can lookout over Ajaccio and the bay. Its best to walk this route early in the morning or in the evening, when the sun isn’t beating down on your back.

The south island
Bonifacio
Bonifacio is a main stop for anyone driving (or cruising) around the island. Based at the southern tip of Corsica, this lively harbour and its rich limestone cliffs give off a Mediterranean atmosphere that seeps into your skin.
Although it’s a lengthy two and a half hour drive from Ajaccio, Bonifacio makes up for the journey with stunning cliff top walks, an attractive old town and citadel, as well as a gleaming marina filled with sailboats and yachts.
There’s also plenty of sightseeing stops to make as you drive south. The prehistoric site of Filitosa lies close to the main motorway heading towards Bonifacio.
