Climb the stairs for amazing views and a reward at the top. Admittedly it’s not for the faint of heart or for those whose legs prefer easier routes, but ascending Bonifacio’s Escalier du Roi d’Aragon (King of Aragon’s Staircase) is a monumental feat. Count the stairs. You’ll arrive at the summit after climbing 187 limestone steps. Reward yourself at the top for having made it. Go about 1,500 feet (480 metres) farther to visit a museum within the town’s historic citadel. Catch your breath during the ascent and take in the stunning views over the Mediterranean and the rocky outcroppings below, with the massive cliff face above. Although the staircase’s history is uncertain, one account says that invading Aragonese troops built it in just one night in 1420 during an unsuccessful assault on the town. A more probable scenario is that it was built by Franciscan monks to fetch drinking water from a cave at the base of the steps. As the staircase can only be accessed on foot, it’s necessary to first make a steep descent that can be challenging to those who don’t like heights. Walk the level portion at the base for about 1,300 feet (400 metres) along the cliff face, a few feet above the water, before climbing back up. The path is narrow so you have to move to the side to let others pass. There is a fee to access the staircase, which closes in the early evening or when there is inclement weather. Arrive early at the staircase as it can get quite busy. Be sure to bring water and wear good shoes, as flip-flops would not be sensible, even when using the handrail in good weather. A large part of Corsica’s beauty lies in its cliffs and rugged terrain. Climb the Escalier du Roi d’Aragon so that you can proudly say you fully experienced part of the region’s natural charm and history. ## Plan a trip to see Escalier du Roi d'Aragon Price found within the past 48 hours.

The team were truly superb and looked after anything and everything, The suite was amazing, and the view to the sea stunning. The design of U Capu is shabby chic which we loved over sterile or the mass contemporary hotels popping up everywhere. A real gem.
