The poster features a rendering by Adolphe Cossard, depicting a breathtaking scene from Col de Bavella with towering mountains and majestic pine and beech trees.
The Col de Bavella (in Corsican Foci di Bavedda) is a renowned Corsican pass between Aléria and Sartène. Famous for its extraordinary mountain scenery, the Bavella drive is one of the most popular attractions in Corsica. This unforgettable 75 km route showcases the island’s diverse landscapes, offering a plethora of scenic sights.
