The San Carlo spring is a source of drinking water. The apex point of the Erve tub path, here too it is possible to stop in the shade of the trees and use the picnic tables for a snack.

The San Carlo Spring is located near Erve, a small town in the Lombard Prealps, in the province of Lecco. The spring is one of the most well-known local natural resources, which flows near the Hermitage of San Carlo, a place of worship and meditation dedicated to San Carlo Borromeo.

The spring is located in a very suggestive natural setting, in an area rich in woods and alpine meadows, ideal for a stop during an excursion. The path that leads to the spring crosses quiet and panoramic paths, ideal for those looking for a light and regenerating excursion, far from the chaos of the city.

The San Carlo Spring is a place much appreciated for its natural beauty and the tranquility it offers, and is an ideal destination for excursions, walks or even for those who simply want to enjoy the freshness of the waters in an uncontaminated environment.
