About

The Capu Tafunatu is a mountain in the department of Haute-Corse on the island of Corsica, France.

It rises to an altitude of 2,335 metres (7,661 ft) in the Niolo piève in the northwest of the island.

Located in the Monte Cintu massif near the Paglia Orba, it rises southeast of Manso on the edge of the commune of Albertacce.

Capu Tafunatu literally means "perforated head".

The top of the mountain is pierced by an opening 55 metres (180 ft) wide by 16 metres (52 ft), making it the largest natural arch in France.
