Then there are the Matese Mountains that run along the border with Campania and reach 2050 meters with Mount Miletto. To the east, the area of the Sub (Monti Frentani) sloping towards the sea with very steep hills and rounded shapes. The climate is semi-continental, with generally cold winters and hot summers. On the coast the climate is more agreeable, as it proceeds towards the interior of the winter becomes more rigid and the temperatures drop considerably (Campobasso in winter is one of the coldest cities in Italy). The summer is more pleasant on the coast where winds often blow that will sweeten the warm months.
