Calabritto (Irpino: ) is an Italian town and a commune in the province of Avellino, Campania, Italy. It occupies a hilly-mountainous area at the eastern tip of the Monti Picentini range, in the upper Sele valley.
==Geography== Calabritto is a small town surrounded by the Picentini mountains in the west and crossed by Sele river in its eastern side, and a stream called the Zagarone. It is linked with a mountain road to the ski resort and village of Laceno. It is considered part of the upper Sele valley. It borders the municipalities of Acerno (SA), Bagnoli Irpino, Caposele, Lioni, Senerchia and Valva (SA). It sits 460 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mount Altillo at the eastern end of the Picentini mountains. There are many springs, some of which feed into the Asis Aqueduct, which provides water for 155 municipalities in the province of Salerno. The only civil parish (frazione) of the municipality is Quaglietta, autonomous municipality merged into Calabritto in 1928. Quaglietta means "little quail."
