Monte Cinto and other summits|Corsica

9 Jul 2007 - 13 Jul 2007

This is the highest and the most difficult part of our trekking over Corsica mountains. Monte Rotondo, is second highest summit. Monte D'Oro, the beautiful pyramid. Monte Cinto, the highest one. It took a loot of sweat, but as a reward we got amazing landscape of mountains with sea in distance.
