Embark on a moderate hike along the European Long-Distance Path E1: Campo dei Fiori, a route that guides you through varied terrain and lush forests. You will pass through fir, beech, chestnut, and pine trees, enjoying the changing scenery. The trail culminates at Punta di Mezzo, the highest point in the Campo dei Fiori massif, offering expansive views. This 6.4-mile (10.4 km) journey involves a 774-foot (236 metres) elevation gain and typically takes about 3 hours and 13 minutes to complete.
Your adventure begins near the historic Art Nouveau buildings of the Campo dei Fiori Grand Hotel complex, specifically at the former funicular railway station. While much of the path is accessible, be aware that a section between Campo dei Fiori and the junction of trail 307 and Piazzale Belvedere currently has a temporary closure with a detour in place. For convenient intermediate access, you can find parking available at Bar-Ristorante Irma.
This segment of the European Long-Distance Path E1 is nestled within the Parco Regionale Campo dei Fiori, providing a rewarding outdoor experience. From viewpoints near the Grand Hotel, you can enjoy nearly 360-degree vistas across the plains, the Varese valleys, and the majestic Alps. On clear days, you might even catch a glimpse of the city of Milan and several sparkling lakes, making this a truly memorable part of the regional park.
