This past June I attempted the GR20.
… Corsica is a mountainous island in the Mediterranean and its GR20 is reputed to be the toughest waymarked trail in Europe. It is an ambitious route for fit and agile walkers, covering 190km in about two weeks as it makes a complete traverse through the high mountains, backpacking the whole way, sometimes with hands-on scrambling. …
Starting tomorrow I’ll post my day-by-day trip report with annotated photos. It turned out to be the toughest hike of my life.
