Tufara's Location within Italy and within the Province of Campobasso

Tufara is about 55 miles from Naples, and about 125 miles from Rome, as lines are drawn on a map, but there are mountains in between.  But although Tufara is 16 miles away from the provincial capital city of Campobasso by map lines, it is 29 miles away from that city by road.  The villages of Molise are in the highlands where roads are switchback.
