The tiny picturesque village of Brinzio is nestled in a charming, alpine basin between the northern slopes of Campo dei Fiori and Monte Martica. The third stretch of the No. 10 trail, which links Brinzio to Velate, starts on the corner by Via Piave meets Via Virgilio.

Start walking along Via Virgilio which passes along the banks of the north end of the tiny Lake Brinzio after a couple of hundred yards where the Rio Brivola flows out of the lakelet.
