Cusano Mutri

Cusano Mutri is a village that enchants from the very first glance: a maze of stone stairways, arches, and deep silences, perched high on the Matese mountains. It looks like something out of a storybook—every corner is a natural stage set. The historic center is a masterpiece of spontaneous architecture, all uphill, all waiting to be explored. All around, nature puts on a show: the Caccaviola Gorges, wild and dramatic, are one of the hidden jewels of Sannio. In autumn, the village bursts to life with the famous Mushroom Festival—a triumph of scents, flavors, and traditions that draws thousands of visitors.
Between fountains, artisan shops, steaming dishes and local wine, Cusano wins hearts with its authenticity. The air smells of moss, wood smoke, and fresh bread. Handcrafts, religious customs, and a sincere, rustic cuisine make this the perfect retreat for anyone who loves mountains, taste, and true hospitality. Cusano Mutri isn’t just a village you visit—it’s one you explore, breathe in, and live. And when you leave… you’ll already be dreaming of coming back.
