Travel deals Malcesine - holiday with a thousand fascinating faces!
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! Malcesine - holiday with a thousand fascinating faces!In spite of the countless tourists, Malcesine, on the coast of Lake Garda, has lost none of its charm. The image of this city embossed with scaling mountains, a few of which enthrone the mediaeval old town. Here, one can wander through the narrow cobbled alleys and passages, stroll along the picture perfect lake-side promenade to the “Val di Sogno” peninsula, visit the Goethe Museum, or simply board the cable cars and ride to the summit of “Tratto Spino”. Malcesine is a perfect starting point for starting a mountain bike or hiking tour to the Monte Baldo massif. The area also offers those water-lovers countless spots ideal for swimming, but also has exciting opportunities for surfers and sailors. Spend your holidays like Goethe did in fascinating Malcesine!
