Campo dei Fiori di Varese is a mountain located in the northern part of Varese, Lombardy, Italy. It has an elevation of 1227m (4,026feet).
Overlooking the city of Varese and the homonymous lake, the Campo dei Fiori consists of a massif with several peaks, from west to east:
The Sacro Monte of Varese, built on one of the minor peaks of the Campo dei Fiori, is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
On the eastern side of the mountain, facing Varese, sits the now-vacant Grand Hotel Campo Dei Fiori. The Art Nouveau-style hotel was designed by Giuseppe Sommaruga and opened in 1910, but subsequently closed in 1968.[1]
Between the end of October and the first week of November 2017, the park was the subject of arson that burned down around 60 acres of woodland. In October 2020, the pine forests near the top of the mountain suffered extensive damage as a result of Storm Alex.
The Vellone–Sacro Monte funicular links the Vellone valley to Santa Maria del Monte; a second funicular, linking the same valley to the former Grand Hotel Campo dei Fiori, has been abandoned since 1953.
The massif is protected by the Campo dei Fiori Regional Park, established in 1984, which is adjacent to the Cinque Vette Park.
