Climbing the mountain road from the roundabout north east of Saint-Florent with the the junction between the D80 and D81 to the memorial to the Battle of Teghime at the Col de Teghime. This road starts quite gently before it becomes quite steep towards the top.

Descending the mountain road, the D81, from the Col de Treghime to our hotel in Bastia. Please note the bends without any armco or similar to prevent cars etc from tumbling several hundred feet down the mountainside. This was a reason why we did not venture to Saint-Florent for an evening meal! As we enter Bastia make note of the ‘table top like’ road calming/humps.

Crossing the mountain range between Corte and Ajaccio on our way home. This part of the journey was undertaken during the Corsican lunch hour which explains why there is so little traffic - not normally so quiet from our experience. Some of this stretch of road is very twisty and steep whilst there are several stretches of newly made road in the ‘lowlands’.
