Geocache Description:

Nice, small hike in wild nature, good place to have a picknick at the rivulet

Start at Brezzo di Bèdero or at the "Villagio Ollandese" and follow the marked trail (V3 - Bedero Valtravaglia - Sette Termini) down to the bridge in the valley (N 45° 58' 38'' / E 8° 43' 29'' or in minutes: N 45° 58.636' E 8° 43.499'). From there, follow the rivulet downstream. You may have to climb over some trees etc. as the nature is rather wild in the area.

Imagine hydrangea ("Hortensien" in German) grew in the center of the furt, where the trail crosses the rivulet. From the imaginary top of the fully grown bush, look exactly westward. There, the cache is hidden. After you found it, follow the trail downstream to Germinaga to enjoy some ice cream. Even Linda (3 years old) completed that trail (but the ice cream was essential :-)

Small note on cache maintenance: We don't live there, but have a frequently visited holiday home very close.
