GT20 / ETAPE 3 : SAN FIURENZU - BELGUDE

Stage 3 runs from San Fiurenzu (Saint-Florent) to Belgudè (Belgodère) over almost 38km, with a D+ of around 950m. This section immerses you in the Balagne region. Meet the craftspeople along the famous "A Strada di l'Artigiani" craftsmanship route, before heading off along the west coast. The winding road, punctuated by ascents and descents, offers spectacular views of the sea. This stage is ideal for cyclists in search of authenticity, combining heritage and coastal scenery.
Depart San Fiurenzu for Balagne! The stage begins with an ascent of almost 10km and continues with false flats over the next 5km to cross the Désert des Agriates - jewel of the Nebbiu - culminating at an altitude of 350m. After an 8km descent, at the junction with the T30, continue for 100m to get back on the road towards Nuvella; after passing A Bocca a Croce, take a break for 2.5km. The route continues with a 5km ascent of the Col de San Colombanu with a 250m gradient, followed by a long 6km descent offering spectacular views of the Balagne and a well-earned break at Belgudè.
