Discovering Campo di Brenzone

Campo is a fraction in a hilly position of Brenzone sul Garda, 30 km from Borgo Romantico, in the immediate vicinity of Malcesine.
One of the most beautiful excursion destinations in the Veronese Garda area, reachable only on foot along a mule track that connects Castelletto and Prada. A place that offers the maximum of its magic and uniqueness during theChristmas period; when it is enriched with many nativity scenes set among paths and ancient houses, sometimes semi-ruined.

Hidden between olive trees, the characteristic village is made up of a group of stone houses, uninhabited and grouped together.
During our excursion we came across a castle covered by vegetation and the small church of the village with well-preserved frescoes from the 13th and 14th centuries with Byzantine influence.

We are without a shadow of a doubt on one of the most panoramic points of the Veneto coast of Lake Garda.

What made our visit to Campo truly special and different from the usual is the fact that the Borgo is now almost abandoned.
The remaining or returning inhabitants are now about twenty, mostly artists and farmers, used to hiking both in summer and winter.
Campo is in fact also sought after for the nativity scenes hidden among the abandoned houses and the characteristic lighting visible from the valley.

Our walk in the middle of nature, the absolute silence, the breathtaking panorama, made the atmosphere of our trek today truly unique.
We had the feeling of having entered a place where time has really stopped centuries ago.
