Though I could find no internet record of Mt. Vesuvius being surrounded by any range (and actually found references to a ring of cities and towns around the entire mountain), according to the crossword puzzle I just finished, Vesuvius is part of the Apennine Mountain range. Upon researching this range, I discovered that it is a Southern leg of the European Alps, but I can still find no record of Vesuvius actually being a part of this (or any) range.
