Stenio Melani
July 4, 2026, Belvedere Viewpoint of Campo dei Fiori

The Belvedere of Campo dei Fiori, located at 1,027 meters on the massif above Varese, offers a spectacular view of the Po Valley, the pre-Alpine lakes, and the Alpine arc. It is easily reachable on foot in about 10-15 minutes from Osteria Irma, an ideal spot for panoramic walks and excursions.
