The Muntagna Bastelica Trail in Bastelica
The Muntagna Bastelica Trail is the flagship event organized annually in September by the Bastelica Muntagne Trail association, created in 2025 to promote trail running in the Renoso massif and enhance the natural heritage of the Prunelli valley, in Corse-du-Sud.
A Committed Association
The Bastelica Muntagne Trail association, chaired by François-Joseph D'Amore, was born from the common passion of the people of Bastelica for their mountains. Supported by the commune of Bastelica, it organizes two annual events: the Paese Trail di Bastelica in spring (a friendly race in the village) and the Muntagna Bastelica Trail in September, a more demanding high-mountain race.
Courses in the Heart of Nature
The Muntagna Bastelica Trail offers several race formats adapted to all levels: a long course of 28 km with 1 900 m of positive elevation gain leading to Lake Vitalaca and Monte Renoso, an intermediate course of 17 km via Mezzaniva and Latina, and a discovery loop of 10 km around Tinosu and Verga. A non-timed 6 km charity walk is also offered on the same day.
Strong Local Roots
The event highlights the natural and cultural heritage of Bastelica, a village at 850 m altitude in the heart of the Prunelli valley. The profits from the charity walks support local projects (rehabilitation of trails, Inseme association for patients evacuated for medical treatment to the mainland).
