Monte Capanne e promontorio dell’Enfola, Protected natural area in Province of Livorno, Italy.

Monte Capanne e promontorio dell'Enfola is a 67 km² Natura 2000 site covering the whole western part of Elba and the Enfola peninsula in the island's north. Its northern slopes keep Elba's main forest formations, while the southern and eastern slopes are degraded by fire and dominated by therophytic flora. The site is rich in local and regional endemics, including the sea lavender Limonium ilvae, the Tyrrhenian tree frog and the European leaf-toed gecko.

The protected area covers the western part of Elba and the Enfola peninsula, a landscape shaped by fire: the southern and eastern slopes are degraded and dominated by therophytic flora, while the northern slopes keep the island's main forest formations. Its habitats include Mediterranean temporary ponds, scrub, and pine and oak woods with holm oak and cork oak.

The name joins Monte Capanne, Elba's highest peak, with the Enfola peninsula, a former tuna-fishing site. The reserve is known for the endemic sea lavender Limonium ilvae and for the Tyrrhenian tree frog, found on the island's western slopes.

The best way to explore this area is on foot via trails that pass through varied elevations and natural settings. Bring sturdy footwear and plenty of water, especially during warmer months.

Two distinct beaches connect the Enfola headland to the mainland through a natural sandbar. Just offshore lies an underwater cave called Sbruffo that snorkelers and divers can explore.
