Have you ever found on top of a mountain thinking to arrive in the evening in your sweet refuge on the lake where you planned your holiday? In Brenzone happens often, even if following our tips, definitely it will be easier not to get lost in the journey towards to the lake.

Since the GPS has changed the way we travel, the Civil Protection of Brenzone is committed to recover unsuspecting tourists who venture on the hellish ascent / descent of Punta Veleno, or get stuck under a romantic arch in Olive square in Castelletto di Brenzone.

This is due to a bug in the reporting of the satellite navigation system to anyone traveling in Brenzone coming from the highway exit “Affi” which indicates the shortest path to reach our village. To avoid problems, that could turn your holiday in a nightmare, it is recommended to follow the directions on brown background that indicates the direction of “Lake Garda” and once arrived in the village of Garda, follow the spectacular road that shore the lake and arrive directly to Brenzone.
