Bivouac de Prati, Mountain campground in Palneca, France
Bivouac de Prati is a mountain accommodation located at 1,820 meters (5,970 feet) on a high-altitude plateau surrounded by grassland in Corsica. The site provides basic sleeping spaces with mattresses and can accommodate around 32 people for overnight stays.
The original structure was destroyed by lightning and then completely rebuilt. The reconstruction expanded the facility to serve more visitors than before.
The site serves as a stopping point for hikers exploring the high-altitude Corsican terrain and seeking direct contact with the mountain environment. People come here to experience wilderness camping in a remote location.
The site is reached by hiking over challenging mountain trails and is accessible only on foot. Visitors should bring their own equipment and supplies, as facilities in this remote location are minimal.
The location marks the last reliable water source before reaching the neighboring mountain refuge and serves as a critical supply point for extended hikes. This positioning makes it an important waypoint on trails throughout the island.
