Start of the trail
On the right of the road before the Anellu bridge as you climb towards the Col de la Vaccia.
Watch out for traffic!
Oscillating Rock of Anellu
The Rocher Oscillant is a small geological curiosity, of which there are many in the Alta Rocca. It is an imposing block of granite balanced on a slab of rock. It's been handled so much that it no longer sways enough. The fact remains that the setting in which it rests is majestic!

Crossing a stream
There's a little difficulty here when crossing a stream, so be careful (especially during the rainy season)!
Anellu bridge
The bridge overhangs the stream that gives it its name, allowing the RD69 to pass through on its way up to the small hamlet of Fuzzanincu, once home to shepherds, and the Col de la Vaccia at an altitude of 1,200 metres. Breathtaking views!
Col de la Vaccia
A natural boundary between the Alta Rocca and Taravo regions, this pass offers exceptional panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys from either side, in a unique landscape dotted with immortelle bushes and short, hostile scrubland. A sublime route!
