Corsiglièse


The Corsiglièse is a stream in the department of Haute-Corse, Corsica, France.
It is a tributary of the river Tavignano.

Course

The Corsiglièse is long.
The stream rises to the south of the village of Sant'Andréa-di-Bozio and flows in a generally south-southeast direction to its junction with the Tavignano.
It runs between the D16 or D116 to the east and the D14 to the west.
The course of the Corsiglièse follows a fault between the schist mountains and the eastern plain, an unstable area where landslides are possible.
The castrum of Petralerata was in the heart of the Corsiglièse valley, on a peak, and had a defensive character unmatched on the island.
It was first mentioned in 1149.
