Those who complete stages a little faster in the first couple of days are likely to complete all further stages faster. Trekkers who are a long way behind the given times should work out by how much, then apply that to their onward progress. Note that the times are walking times, and take no account whatsoever of breaks for lunch, rests or taking pictures. Over roughly two weeks most trekkers will cover a distance of about 200km (125 miles) and climb some 12,500m (41,000ft) in total.

The GR20 is a slow and often difficult trek, but one where the scenery is so magnificent that you wouldn’t wish to be anywhere else. The best advice is to take it steadily. Don’t rush the route or over-exert yourself. Aim to enjoy the experience and give the trek as long as it needs for a successful completion. The two tables in ssss1 and ssss1 will help you set your own pace, knowing where food and services are available along the route, whether you are trekking from Calenzana to Conca or Conca to Calenzana.
