The starting point to Monte d´Oro is situated 33 km south of Corte on road T20. You can approach the mountain either by following the river L´Agnone and GR20 all the way up to the ridge west of Monte d´Oro, or approach the mountain from the east following the river Ruisseau de Speloncello.
You can also do it as a loop as we did, called Circuit Cascade des Anglais – Monte d´Oro. We did the loop anti clockwise.
The two paths join just before the summit. The last section involves some steep climbing.
There were some clouds the day we did the hike and by the time we reached the summit it was very windy and the summit was covered in mist and we had zero visibility.
