The Campolattaro Lake Oasis is one of the most important natural areas in Sannio, managed by the WWF and characterized by a large artificial lake surrounded by woods, pastures, and wetlands. It is an ideal habitat for wildlife observation: herons, night herons, birds of prey, and many migratory species find a resting place here during the transit seasons.
