Carpinone. The waterfalls. Spring 2024
2024
In the heart of a very small village in Molise, immersed in an enchanted forest and floral nature, stands the Carpinone waterfall, one of the most fascinating natural spectacles of the place. The rush of foaming water, which rushes downwards, pervades you as soon as you take the path and when you finally reach it you have a fantastic visual effect of light and roar. The Carpinone waterfall is becoming one of the major natural attractions of Molise, thanks also to a group of volunteers who, for some years, have been taking care of its appearance to make it accessible to everyone and not just to the few enthusiasts or those who despise the danger... She's too beautiful to leave there alone! It was born as a gift from nature and can be reached by following various paths, all immersed in the bright greenery of Molise and all marked with hand-made wooden signs, so as not to affect the suggestive panorama. As you walk, you feel a very pleasant emotion thanks to the direct contact with nature, the breathing of healthy, clean air and the sight of wonderful floral species that make everything fairytale-like.

Rocchetta al Volturno
Rocchetta a Volturno is an Italian town of 1 098 inhabitants in the province of Isernia in Molise. The Municipality of Rocchetta al Volturno is made up of two nuclei: the original village, called Rocchetta Alta, or Rocchetta Vecchia, still perched in a defensive position on the mountain, and Rocchetta Nuova, which is located at a lower altitude. The new Rocchetta was born because, at the end of the 19th century, the slope that connected the southern part of the ancient town with the opposite hill was deforested and the land began to show serious subsidence from 1890 due to the progressive sliding of the superimposed layers of clay and sandstone, increased by water infiltrations, both rain and spring. In 1905, following further disastrous events, the population moved for the most part downstream, where there was a hamlet called Case Sparse. The modern town is developed today in the center of a plateau, bordered to the west by the terminal part of the Mainarde chain and to the east by a depression, at the bottom of which the Volturno flows; about two kilometers away are the sources of the river. Its name characterizes the toponyms of other nearby municipalities such as Colli a Volturno and Cerro al Volturno.

Bagnoli del Trigno (IS)
Bagnoli del Trigno (Vagnuolë in molisano) è un comune italiano di 708 abitanti della provincia di Isernia in Molise. Le origini del paese sono ignote[3] e si fanno risalire a diverse leggende, secondo le quali Bagnoli sarebbe stata fondata in una da un Duca che si abbevera nelle acque del Trigno, in un'altra con la costruzione di agglomerati urbani intorno a una sorgente termale (Balneoli, da cui il nome) e infine da alcune tribù per trovare riparo dalle invasioni barbariche. Le prime notizie storiche risalgono al medioevo, quando il feudo era parte del Contado del Molise. Successivamente, dopo una serie di passaggi di proprietà anche tra signori francesi e spagnoli, diventa parte del Regno di Napoli e successivamente del Regno d'Italia. Con il novecento il paese ha visto un forte spopolamento a causa dell'emigrazione, soprattutto a Roma dove molti bagnolesi svolgono il lavoro di tassisti. Da uno studio effettuato dall'associazione "Forche Caudine" nel 2013 risulta che vivono più bagnolesi a Roma (circa un migliaio) rispetto ai residenti in paese.
