… this is maybe the best travel video I’ve seen in the last year. It’s a combination of several things — the narrative is rich and well timed, the landscapes are beautiful and lush — but I think that the most important thing is the way in which it appeals to the traveler. …

Thanks George.
I hiked half the GR20 last summer.
Mike saw my trip report and comments:
… treat the water. Very often the Corsicans pump their water directly from nearby streams so the water “might” be infected due to the heavy grazing. I’m speaking from personal experience 😦 …
… bed bugs are a recurring problem with most of the refuges … I agree with you. Tents are much safer!

Mike’s got a 55min video documentary on the northern section linked from corsica.forhikers.com/gr20 and the equally detailed southern section sequel on vimeo.
Or you can see both on Mike’s GR20 blog.
Watching those would be ideal preparation for the “toughest long distance trail in Europe”.
