The village of Capoliveri

Capoliveri is situated in a strategic position overlooking, on one side, the gulf of Porto Azzurro and, on the other, the Stella gulf with the evocative view of Mount Capanne that can already be seen halfway up.
It is a town that dominates a good part of Elba from above, surrounded by beautiful beaches that are partly equipped and partly still natural, and that lives above all in the afternoon and evening with a flow of people that fills the bars, small stores, restaurants and pubs among the streets and small squares of the town.
For the last ten years or so Capoliveri has become famous not only for the sea but also for the most beautiful Bike Park on Elba, which attracts many enthusiasts all year round and is home to the Legend Cup and twice the Mountain Bike World Championships.
