Bagnoli Irpino

Bagnoli Irpino is a municipality in Avellino Province, Campania, situated in mountainous terrain at around 650 meters elevation within the Picentini range. The town is surrounded by forests and chestnut groves that shape its natural setting.

The settlement dates back to Roman times and was shaped by successive rulers and regional shifts. This layered history established its present status within Avellino Province.

The community maintains autumn traditions tied to chestnut harvesting, when locals and visitors gather to participate in collection and preparation activities. These customs give the town its seasonal rhythm and identity.

The town is accessible by regional buses from Avellino, with lodging available in local hotels and guesthouses year-round. Visiting in autumn offers the most to see and experience, as the season brings agricultural activity and local gatherings to the area.

Lake Laceno within the territory functions as both a summer recreation spot and a winter ski destination, a dual role many visitors overlook. This body of water transforms the region seasonally and offers year-round reasons to visit.
