Campochiaro Archivi

Hike the Deer Trail and soar over history and forests by paraglider

Campochiaro is a small village at the foot of the Matese where the sacredness of an ancient place, inhabited for millennia, can be felt.

Towards the mountain, the Sanctuary of Hercules, in the majestic Matese woods, tells the story of ancient prayers, arcane rituals, and mythical legends.

A must-see is the WWF Oasis Guardiaregia – Campochiaro, of which the municipal territory is an integral part, especially the deer wildlife area.

The village attracts paragliding enthusiasts from all over the country, who land in the fields surrounding the village after taking off from the grassy launch site located at 1070 m above sea level.
