Simple summer farms, or bergeries, may sell food and drink to walkers, or allow overnight camping nearby (Stage 6)

Camping

For those carrying a tent, camping is available near all the refuges and some of the bergeries, gîtes and hotels, but only very rarely in other places. It is generally forbidden to camp wild throughout the Parc Natural Régional de Corse (PNRC), no matter how tempting a site might look. Bear in mind that the ground reserved for camping is usually bare, hard, stony and dusty, so pack a sleeping mattress, such as a Therm-a-Rest or similar, and something to protect the groundsheet of your tent. Those who camp near the refuges have access to the toilets, showers and outside stoves and cooking areas, but they should check with individual gardiens to see if they can use the stoves, pans, crockery and utensils inside the refuges. Bergerie kitchens are generally off-limits. Even if not camping a lightweight tent is good insurance if anything prevents a refuge being reached.
