Mount Massico with its 813 meters is the highest relief of the mountain range which starts from the slopes of the Roccamonfina volcano and reaches the Tyrrhenian Sea.

It starts in the area of Frosinone from the confluence between the Liri, which first crosses Abruzzo and Lazio, and the Gari, which rises at Cassino and is often called Liri-Garigliano.

It is an artificial lake, created in the 1960s to power the electricity station of Capriati al Volturno.
With a surface of over 1500 square kilometers, the limestone massif of Matese stretches between Molise and Campania and falls within the territory of four provinces.
