Description
The Cirque de Bonifatu is a beautiful destination for rock climbing in Corsica. We find it in the northwest of the island, between Calvi and Asco. The Bonifatu forest if quite vast, over 3000 hectares.
The best way to describe the Cirque is to say that it is majestic. The ridge is composed of high summits, and in this occasion I invite you to climb one of my two favourites.
The first option is to climb at the Aiguille de Bonifatu (1393m). The north ridge offers a route of 600 meters, difficulty D+. And the other option is at the Aiguille de Falcone (1550m). Here we can do the Granitola route (350 meters, difficulty AD+).
These routes are not particularly difficult, compared to other regions in Corsica. We will meet at the Auberge de la Foret.
Not far from this destination we also have plenty of climbing options at the Asco Valley. Have a look at this other program, it can be a great idea to combine them!
Do you want to discover the beautiful Bonifatu Cirque? Then what can be better than to do it rock climbing! Please send me a request to book this trip and let's start this wonderful adventure!

Mountain Guide
Certified mountain guide UIAGM / IFMGA
I work with Manu, a good friend of mine...
We are both rock climbing instructors and certified mountain leaders. I shared with Manu happy and doubtful moments, building a professional future with a passionate focus on the mountain and the guide role. An open vision over the world, where our competences, knowledge and curiosity are at our client’s service for one day or for life.
The agency we founded together is the natural outcome of our profound complicity. People think we are cousins or brothers. We are just friends, and lucky to be so, because our children are in love: as in love as you can be at 8 years old!
We are both lucky to live in Corsica, this unknown mountain where climbers, mountaineers and skiers still feel like pioneers. This mountain is our playground and our office.
Curious and open to the world, we also organize each year trips to faraway places to see what other mountains and people can give to us, and what we can learn from them.
Ice in the Equator and Patagonia, Spanish, Jordanian or American rocks, snow in the Carpathians, Norway ot the Caucasus. We love the mountain in all its forms and every time we reach a summit we want to climb the neighbouring summit and find what is hiding behind it.

The trip was great. We changed the destination to suit abilities. We climbed in the Restonica Valley which was beautiful. Cédric was excellent as a guide, highly recommended.

We've had the best time with Manu at the Suare crag in Calvi. His professionalism is absolutely top class and made us feel incredibly safe with his professional climbing skills. Most importantly we had a lot of fun. Explore Share is an amazing platform with various activities around the world and I can't believe I never knew about it until now! I've already share this platform with adventurous friends and I am sure I will definitely be using this service again. Well done guys for your efficiency! Love your work!

Manu, was a very friendly and professional guide. As I am fairly new to climbing he picked a good route suitable to my experience. As a result I really enjoyed the trip and felt that I learnt a lot. I would definitely do this trip again and would recommend it to others
