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.

Molise - Castel S. Vincenzo (IS) - Il Lago
Il lago di Castel San Vincenzo è un invaso artificiale realizzato sul finire degli anni Cinquanta per scopi idroelettrici. Il lago occupa una superficie di 6,140 km² ed ha una capacità utile di 10 milioni di metri cubi. Le acque che alimentano il lago provengono principalmente dai torrenti della Montagna Spaccata nei vicini comuni di Alfedena e Barrea. Le acque di questi torrenti alimentano le centrali Enel di Pizzone, di Rocchetta a Volturno e di Colli a Volturno. Seppure artificiale, il lago è ben armonizzato con il paesaggio circostante di montagne e boschi. La fauna acquatica è costituita in prevalenza da salmonidi. In prossimità del lago, dove è possibile dedicarsi alla pesca e ad altri sport d'acqua, sono presenti un'area attrezzata per il camping e un maneggio.
