From Capua to the mouth of the Volturno there are only 4 bridges to cross the river. One of these is in Cancello ed Arnone, a small town along the right bank of the Volturno halfway between Capua and Castel Volturno.

After a 175 km long journey from Molise and through the Apennines, the Volturno river flows here into the Tyrrhenian Sea. The territory of the mouth is included within the Nature Reserve Foce Volturno - Costa di Licola.

This medieval fortress is located at the top of Monte Petrino, at 412 metres. One of the hypotheses is that the fortress was created by the Longobards, then it was in possession of the Normans, Swabians, Angevins, and finally by the Aragonese.

Monastery of Sant'Anna de aquis vivis The monastery of Sant'Anna a Monte is an ancient religious building located on the top of Monte Crestagallo in the municipality of Mondragone, now completely abandoned. The Monastery is nicknamed De Aquis Vivis (literally Delle Acque Vive) due to its proximity to a spring of perennial waters, considered miraculous. The history of the Monastery dates back to at least the fourteenth century, a period in which a group of humble hermits settled on the heights of Mount Crestagallo in the province of Terra di Lavoro. There the brothers began to live in poor makeshift cells and their livelihood was based almost on alms alone. Subsequently, again in that period, a humble church was built and dedicated to Sant'Anna, the mother of Mary. Thanks for its construction is due to the then queen consort of Naples, Sancha d'Aragona (1285–1345) The monastery, which has played a role of some importance for centuries

There’s a construction at the start which looks a little confusing. But the highway part is amazing!!
