Travel deals Lake Garda – holiday with fascinating visages!
Bordered in the north by the Dolomites of Brenta and in the south with the gentle slopes of the Morainic Hills, lies the captivating Lake Garda. A mild climate and Mediterranean vegetation are characteristics of this olive and lemon tree-lined landscape. At 55 km long and up to 17.5 km wide, Italy's largest lake was created during the ice age. Whether swimming, hiking or simply relaxing, every holiday traveller will find what their heart desires. The sometimes strong northern wind makes the north shore a paradise for water sports fans ready to put their abilities to the test. The majestic 30-km Monte Baldo massif on the eastern shore invites guests to explore and take hiking, mountain biking, or climbing tours with stops in the rustic mountain villages. The southern part of Lake Garda presents a more mellow atmosphere by comparison, with gently sloping vineyards and olive groves. To see the big picture, we recommend the spectacular tour around the entire lake - after 160 km, you'll be absolutely convinced of the beauty and diversity of this region! Lake Garda – holiday with fascinating visages!The charming, former fishing village of Gargnano can be found on the western side of Lake Garda. The city is comprised of 13 sections. Directly bordering the lake are Bogliaco, Villa and the main city of Gargnano, which weaves along the slope of Monte Magno. In the background ten small mountain villages are found which unite perfect relaxing opportunities and hiking areas with a unique and impressive panorama. The former affluence of the city can still be observed in the lovely villas and palaces as well as in the splendid gardens. Because of the mild, nearly Mediterranean climate and the protection of the surrounding mountains one can find here the most citrus fruit in all of Lake Garda. Those who would like to enjoy nature, bathing and culture, have found just the right place in Gargnano.
