Been here?
4x4 access only
Getting here needs an off-road vehicle. Check your ground clearance before setting off.
This is a remote off-road spot with superb views of the Agriates desert and Cap Corse. Access is up a very rough and steep track, and a 4x4 with short gears is currently required; the roadside stopping area is slightly sloping. The area is very quiet, but dumped vehicle wrecks and rubbish are present. Bivouacking is prohibited in the Agriates.

Very good spot, super quiet. We spent the night here without hearing a sound. Four-wheel drive is essential for the climb.
We spent two nights here in mid-September, and nobody came to disturb us or issue a ticket. The place is a little intimidating because of the burned-out car wrecks, but we were nevertheless peaceful.
We drove 15 minutes higher up to a phenomenal viewpoint: Agriates on the left, Cape Corsica on the right. A 4x4 with low-range gearing is essential.
The site has been turned into a dump. We went a little higher and found a magnificent view, but there is not much space—just enough for our 4x4.
Super quiet spot, completely alone. Please keep it clean, even though there is scrap everywhere dumped by locals. Reachable with a 2WD if you have good driving skills; see photo.
Alone in the world, perfectly quiet, space the size of a football field—perfect.
Magnificently peaceful place with a view. Complete tranquility. One star deducted because of the rubbish dumped here in the past.
Nice and calm spot, has a small barn nearby. However the original poster got up there with a long and low VW Transporter, now in July 23 it’s not possible without risking damage. The road is now very rough and steep, you need short gears and a bit of ground clearance to get up there.
