From Naples to Canosa · Length of the A16: about 172 km of motorway · 3 selected places

Naples–Canosa crosses Irpinia and the Campanian Apennines before reaching Apulia. Unlike the coastal A14, its historic towns and countryside visits require inland detours.

  1. A16 Reference exit: Avellino Ovest km 41

    Avellino: Duomo e centro

    In the Irpinian capital, visit the cathedral and Piazza della Libertà, then sample local food after a city detour.

  2. A16 Reference exit: Benevento km 68.6

    Benevento: Arco di Traiano e Santa Sofia

    The old Samnite city has Trajan’s Arch and Santa Sofia church; this merits a cultural stop rather than a fuel break.

  3. A16 Reference exit: Grottaminarda km 81

    Irpinia: borghi e paesaggi interni

    From this exit, explore Irpinia’s hill towns; the distance to each village depends on the local road chosen.
