Le canal de l’Ourcq est un canal artificiel de 108 km reliant le bassin de la Villette à Paris à Port-aux-Perches, dans l’Aisne. Construit sous Napoléon Ier pour alimenter la capitale en eau potable, il traverse plusieurs départements, dont la Seine-et-Marne et la Seine-Saint-Denis, et fait partie intégrante du réseau fluvial parisien aux côtés des canaux Saint-Denis et Saint-Martin dans lesquels il se jette. Aujourd’hui, il est principalement utilisé pour la navigation de plaisance, l’approvisionnement en eau et diverses activités de loisirs.

This route will take you across the magnificient island of Corsica that is well known for the famous GR20 long distance trail considered to be the hardest hiking trail in Europe. You will start from the most northern point of the island and end at its most southern point, Mare a Mare.

The route will also take you on the Cap Corse section of the island. I have planned the route in a way that you will travel on the most beautiful mountains and villages.

When you visit El Chaltén, you think of sheer granite spires and rock climbing. El Chaltén, however, is also a great destination for trail running. There are many runs and treks that take you to stunning lakes, but as far as climbing peaks goes, Loma del Pliegue is the top non-technical trail in the area. The first few miles are on cruiser singletrack, weaving up through the forest. Then, once you hit treeline, you meander through some boulder fields until you hit the turnoff to go up the peak.
