The extinct volcano of Roccamonfina is the heart of the park that protects since 1993 a territory of great naturalistic value from Campania Felix up to the border with Lazio. Eleven thousand hectares of volcanic rocks and limestone, streams and lush vegetation, dotted with ancient hamlets keeping alive the imprint of their past and the heritage of their identities.

The longest river of Southern Italy with its 175 kilometres rises in Molise, at Rocchetta a Volturno and runs for a long way in the Apennine region, of which, after the Ponte 25 archi, marks the border with Campania.

It rises at the foot of Mounts Trebulani, at 86 meters above sea level, in the territory of Calvi Risorta.

Although its name derives from the Oscan word tifata, which means holm oak, Mount Tifata is largely barren, except for the woods surrounding the northern side.
With a surface of just over a square kilometer, the enchanting Lake of Letino was created at the beginning of the twentieth century in order to feed the hydroelectric power station of Prata Sannita.

Older than Vesuvius. It is among the biggest of Italy, but extinct since fifty thousand years ago. The Roccamonfina volcano rises isolated between the Aurunci Mountains, in Lazio, and in Campania Felix the plain of Garigliano and the Massico massif, separating it from the Tyrrhenian Sea.

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.
