It starts in the area of Frosinone from the confluence between the Liri, which first crosses Abruzzo and Lazio, and the Gari, which rises at Cassino and is often called Liri-Garigliano.
From the point where the two watercourses join, for the most part of the 38 kilometres, which divide it from the sea, the Garigliano River marks the natural border between Lazio and Campania. In different periods, it has been the place of decisive battles for the history of Italy and of the South. On the Garigliano River an important and decisive battle for the defeat of Bourbons was fought in 1860.
The Garigliano River reaches the Tyrrhenian sea and flows into the gulf of Gaeta between Minturno and Baia Domizia.
