The GR20 has the reputation of being the toughest waymarked trail in Europe. It traverses the steep and rugged mountains through the centre of Corsica from Calinzana, through Vizzavona, to Conca. This map booklet has been designed to accompany the guidebook Trekking the GR20 Corsica.

The map booklet contains detailed 1:25,000 French IGN mapping, highlighted with a continuous route line running all the way from Calinzana to Conca. The route throughout the map booklet was generated by GPS while walking the trail. Suggested daily stage breaks are provided, taken from the guidebook Trekking the GR20 Corsica.

The map booklet is included with Trekking the GR20 Corsica, but it can be used separately from the guidebook, providing detailed mapping at every stage on the trail.

A GPX track is available for this route. It can be downloaded from the Cicerone website.
