Asco

Asco is renowned in Corsica for the Asco Valley, where the Asco River runs below the high slopes of the Monte Cinto massif. Set in the island’s rugged interior, the village is associated with the upper valley’s steep roads, forests and mountain terrain, a marked contrast to Corsica’s coastal towns. Stone houses and narrow lanes give its older quarters a distinctly Corsican character, while the valley is a recognised starting area for walks into the central mountains. The river corridor and surrounding woodland show how rapidly the island’s landscape changes away from the Mediterranean coast. See how Asco belongs to northern Corsica by browsing webcams nearby.
