CITIES AND VILLAGES ON THE ITALIAN ADRIATIC COAST
Molise stretchs from the Apennine mountains to the Adriatic coast, between the Trigno and Fortone rivers. While the landscape is mainly mountainous, the region is divided in a coastal area, called low Molise, and a hilly area, called high Molise. The region is dominated by the Meta mountains (2241 meters) and the Matese Mountains, in which the highest mountains are Miletto and Muria. The eastern part of the region spreads towards the sea through a collection of small valleys and dales. The f38-kilometer-long Adriatic coast is flat and sandy, with the exception of Termoli headland.
