With a surface of just over a square kilometer, the enchanting Lake of Letino was created at the beginning of the twentieth century in order to feed the hydroelectric power station of Prata Sannita.
For the ancients, it was the river of the myth, which gave forgetfulness to whoever drunk its water.
The longest river of Southern Italy with its 175 kilometres rises in Molise, at Rocchetta a Volturno and runs for a long way in the Apennine region, of which, after the Ponte 25 archi, marks the border with Campania.
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.
