Between Porto and Piana, a narrow road winds against the
magnificent red granit faces that plunge into the sea. These are the
"Calanche of Piana". Engraved by the erosion, they look like a
fantastic sculpture.
Devil's
sculpture...
The devil was trying to seduce a local sheperdess. As he failed, he
become terribly angry. He sculpted a fantastic city. Today, while crossing the
"Calanques", you can still see: the sheperdess and her husband, a dog,
a bishop and many other creatures.
The best way to
appreciate the beauty of this landscape is to discover it by walking along the
different paths that cross it.
In the very heart of the "Calanques de Piana", you will
find, by the road edge, a nice chalet with an outdoor terrace, called
"Les Roches Bleues" (The Blue Rocks). Here is the starting
point of numerous possible excursions.
