There is a €3 entrance fee to the park, which allows for sustainable management of the area.

The cypress grove is accessible with the payment of 3 euros per person. It can be reached by shuttle, offered by a local association that takes care of it following the payment of 1 euro per person. It is an enchanting place to refresh and stop for a picnic. From there, several challenging and unmarked paths (mule tracks) wind towards the highest parts of the ridges where it stands, to be followed with caution.

A small and little-known village surrounded by greenery. The archaeological findings, such as the polygonal walls on Monte Cerino, Monte S. Croce and in the nearby Monte Sammucro suggest that it was inhabited since the times of the Samnites and the ancient name "Valle del campo" refers precisely to the defensive function of the Sannio. In the town centre, the church of Sant'Antonio di Padova, the remains of the site and the church of Santa Caterina, of the Convent of San Domenico, the remains of a watchtower and those of a Samnite settlement are worth seeing.
