The Tavignano rises below the 2,007 metres (6,585 ft) Capu a u Tozzu and flows to the east. It runs through Lac de Nino near its source. Part of the river's upper section flows through the Réserve biologique intégrale du Tavignano. It then flows through the town of Corte. From Corte it runs southeast to the Tyrrhenian Sea near Aléria, followed by the T50 road. it enters the sea between the Étang de Diane and the Étang del Sale. Its entire course is in the Haute-Corse département.[3]


Hydrology


Measurements of the river flow were taken at the Antisanti [Pont du Faïo] station from 1996 to 2021. The watershed above this station covers 573 square kilometres (221 sq mi). Annual precipitation was calculated as 509 millimetres (20.0 in). The average flow of water throughout the year was 9.23 cubic metres per second (326 cu ft/s).[4]

Der Tavignano ist ein Fluss in Frankreich, der im Département Haute-Corse auf der Insel Korsika verläuft. Er entspringt im Regionalen Naturpark Korsika, an der Südost-Flanke des Capu a u Tozzu (2007 m), an der Gemeindegrenze von Corte, Casamaccioli und Letia und somit auch an der Grenze zum benachbarten Département Corse-du-Sud. Der Fluss durchfließt zunächst den Lac de Nino und entwässert in seinem Oberlauf in Richtung Nordost, dreht aber später auf Südost und mündet nach rund 89[2] Kilometern knapp unterhalb von Aléria ins Tyrrhenische Meer. Unterhalb von Corte wird das Tal des Tavignano von der Nationalstraße 200 genutzt.
