Getting to the GR20

Calvi has an airport and a ferryport close to the northern end of the GR20

From Calvi

Simply leave the airport and grab the first available taxi. Ask to be taken to Calenzana. One look at your pack and the driver will guess you are heading for the GR20. He may refer to the route with a word that sounds like jairvan – get used to the sound! If you have already arranged accommodation in Calenzana, leave it to the driver to take you there. The telephone numbers of some of the taxi drivers are given in the section about Calenzana.

If reaching Calvi by ferry, either take a taxi to Calenzana, or wait for the once-a-day bus in July and August, operated by Beaux Voyages, tel 04 95 65 11 35 or 04 95 65 08 26, www.corsicar.com. This bus only operates on schooldays for the rest of the year. Buses, taxis and trains all operate close to the Place de la Porteuse d’Eau, which is near the railway station in Calvi and only a short walk from the port.
