Forre di Lavello
Cusano Mutri (BN)
The Titerno has carved the limestone into deep gorges, and a path along an ancient Samnite mule track skirts them among caves, bridges and the constant sound of water.

Mulino di Zi' Fiore e Ponte del Mulino
Cusano Mutri (BN)
A mill carved into the rock face, still since the Fifties, reached by an arched bridge once crossed by the Oscan mule track. The water keeps turning a wheel that is no longer there.

Founded at the end of the 7th century amid the chestnut groves, survivor of earthquakes and centuries of neglect: a rural church that seems to grow out of the wood, where silence is part of the furnishing.
