Hi
Unfortunately I can have only 14, maybe 15 days of holiday in September. Considering I wanna do it South to North what are the best entry points from Ajaccio? I don't want to rush too much so I'm flexible about other entry points than Conca and Calenzana. Or is it a fairly comfortable schedule to do it in 12 days?
I also prefer flying and returning from Ajaccio airport.
I would prefer to walk for no more than 6-7 hours a day.
Last question, how to go back to either Bastia or Ajaccio airports from Calvi on Sunday as most buses don't operate on that day?

Sorry for so many questions :)
Thanks in advance!
Marcin

Marcin, GR 20 is 180 km long and pretty difficult. It can be done in 5 days, however you would have to walk more than 7 hours a day I think.

Ajaccio is not a perfect starting point, although you can take train to Vizzavona from there and then walk only the Northern or the Southern part. Train connection is also between Calvi and Bastia.
