Corsica nascosta

This guide is a tribute to one of the most unique railways in Europe and one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean. A small railway line crosses the wonders of Corsica, between nature and history. For railway enthusiasts it is one of the most characteristic narrow gauge lines. For tourists an alternative to a day on the beaches. For aesthetes, a close encounter with the splendid landscape of the island. The authors suggest 24 walking excursions that connect station to station and allow you to visit a large part of the island in a sustainable and ecological way using the train. In addition to the itineraries and visits to the three capital cities - Ajaccio, Bastia, Corte - the guide includes the history of this railway, the technical characteristics and drawings of the rolling stock. In the first part, dedicated to train travel, a "stripmap" allows you, while sitting next to the window, to follow the route and recognize the places crossed, the stations, viaducts and tunnels. On foot, however, the 24 paths are described with technical notes, things to see and detailed maps.
