  Turismo Matese
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).
