Sollacaro (Italian: Sollacarò, pronounced [solˈlaˈkaro]; Corsican: Suddacarò) is a commune in the Corse-du-Sud department of France on the island of Corsica.

Geography

The village is located at 450 m of altitude in the Taravo valley, on the departmental road 302, linking the Celaccia gap to Pisciatello (close to Ajaccio) via Pila-Canale.

A large part of the village is on the northwest side of a hill therefore there is no morning sun[2] except for the Torre and adjacent neighbourhoods situated on a rocky spur.

Sollacaro is 25 km (16 mi) southeast from the prefecture, Ajaccio, 14 km (8.7 mi) north of the subprefecture Sartène and 8 km (5.0 mi) north of Propriano.[3]
