Aghione is a commune in the Haute-Corse department of France on the island of Corsica.

The inhabitants of the commune are known as Aghionais or Aghionaises[1]

Geography

Aghion is located on the eastern plains of Corsica 5 km west of Aleria. It can be accessed by the D343 road which comes from the National Highway N198 in the south east and passes west though the southern plain of the commune to Maison Pierraggi in the west and continues on to Vezzani in the Tagnone Valley 25 km away. From the D343 the D443 branches north at the hamlet of Samuleto and continues to the village before continuing north by a tortuous mountain route to Casevecchie.[2]

The commune is watered by the Tagnon, a tributary of Tavignano that separates an area of hills to the north from the plain, which is larger in area, to the south. There is a large dam with a large lake in the south of the commune.[2]

Economy

The commune of Aghione is predominantly agricultural. The hills are used for grazing goats, sheep, and pigs; while the plain is planted with vines and fruit trees (kiwifruit, Mandarins). There is no farm of significant size located in the commune. In particular the grapes are collected by neighbouring wineries - mainly by the Aleria cooperative.

There are no longer any trades or services in the commune. The people find everything necessary at Aleria (10 km away) or Ghisonaccia (20 km away).

The commune has no access to the sea yet is close by (Alzitone is 5 kilometres from the coast). Aghione has no tourist facilities and does not have any second homes.
