Bavella, the Bomb Hole
Description
Positive elevation: 147m / Negative elevation: 143m Level: OOOOOOO
Hanging on the horizon, the granite needles of Bavella sometimes seem to extend beyond the sky. We will start the hike through a magnificent larriciu pine forest. Objective of the walk: Trou de la Bombe. A huge hole 8 meters in diameter created by natural erosion from wind and rain. The Corsican name of this site “u tafonu di u Cumpuleddu” however has nothing to do with its French-speaking name, since “u cumpuleddu” means “the sheep enclosure” and recalls that the place was once a refuge for shepherds.
