カプリアーティAヴォルトゥルノのおすすめランニングルート

The Cipresseta di Fontegreca is one of the most well-equipped natural areas in the Matese: a forest of centuries-old cypress trees crisscrossed by streams, waterfalls, and shaded paths. There is a €3 entrance fee to the park, which allows for sustainable management of the area. Visitors have access to picnic tables, shaded areas for laying out a towel, public restrooms, and a seasonal shuttle service from the parking lot.

The frescoes and the modern art museum are definitely worth a visit. Tickets cost €6, and the complex is also open on Sundays (closed on Mondays). The visit lasts about an hour, if accompanied by the excellent volunteer guide included in the ticket.

The Villa Comunale (the equivalent of a public garden in southern Italy) has been closed for redevelopment since December 2024, and as of August 2025, it has not yet reopened: the entrances are barred.

The cypress grove is accessible with the payment of 3 euros per person. It can be reached by shuttle, offered by a local association that takes care of it following the payment of 1 euro per person. It is an enchanting place to refresh and stop for a picnic. From there, several challenging and unmarked paths (mule tracks) wind towards the highest parts of the ridges where it stands, to be followed with caution.

In the town centre, the church of Sant'Antonio di Padova, the remains of the site and the church of Santa Caterina, of the Convent of San Domenico, the remains of a watchtower and those of a Samnite settlement are worth seeing.
