In the hills just west of Calvi there are many beautiful paths and single trails for MTB. The MTB part of the Calvi Xtri Triathlon 2018 was also held here, some of the signposts are still there. The route here is only a suggestion and can be varied and expanded as desired.

In Calvi you follow the north coast to the left past the citadel to the junction to ND de la Serra. Immediately after the junction you can turn right and drive the old path that existed before today’s road was built. Further up there is another piece of this path on the left shortly after the recycling yard.

In front of the church, turn right and come up to the Bouclé Capu di a Veta. In addition to the MTB experience, you will be rewarded with a great view of the Gulf of Calvi. The route leads up to 280 m. If you follow the path to the left, you will reach Calvi’s local mountain, the Capu di a Veta. However, the path suitable for MTB ends at the high-voltage pylon, which you can see on the right side of the mountain.

This route leads straight ahead, a sometimes-rocky single trail with bushes on the right and left down to the west coast. You follow the small coastal road north and then past the Chapelle up to the Bouclé. There you turn right this time and follow the trail. At the end of the trail, keep right twice and then don’t go up to the bouclé, but left down back into the valley.

There are many possibilities here – including a single trail down the mountain to Calvi – depending on your mood and condition.
