Molise is the youngest, smallest and less crowded region
with an ordinary statute. The pureness of this land alone
deserves a visit.
Paesaggio del Matese Pure because barely known and little visited, for the close
link with agriculture and sheep-breeding, for the morphology
if its places. The region, extending from the height of Mount
Miletto to the Adriatic Coast, represents a unique heritage
for its history, culture and landscape.

Molise offers an amazing variety of opportunities despite the
dimension of its territory: it ranges from the beaches of
Termoli to the ski resort of Campitello Matese, from the Natural
Oasis in Guardiaregia to the medieval fortifications and villages,
from the archaeological finds dating back to Samnite and Roman
period straight to the Baroque. |
Cascata nel Matese |
A concentrate of nature, beauty and tradition that has preserved
the charme and the appeal of a land to discover. In spite
of the development of the industrial activities, Molise is
still linked to an agricultural economy. Thanks to this tradition,
the handicraft is still predominant among the region’s
activities. |

Ferrazzano The territory of Molise, bounded by Abruzzo at North, by
Lazio at North-West, by Campania and Puglia at South, became
a Region in 1963, after being attached to Terra del Lavoro
(province of Caserta), afterward to Abruzzo and, lately to
Capitanata (in present – day Puglia). Tha Matese massif,
with the two thousand meters - high Mount Miletto, is the
most important chain, followed by the Mainarde chain. The
territory is crossed by five rivers (Biferno, Trigno, Fortore,
Volturno and Sangro ). The three artificial basins used for
the production of electric energy, have formed three lakes
(Castel San Vincenzo, Guardalfiera, Occhito).
