Lake Garda
5 Nights
Good 3-Star Hotel
Group holidays
1. March - 31. October
- DAY 1: Arrive at your Lake Garda-area hotel.
- DAY 2: A breathtaking hike today, walking this footpath high above Lake Garda. This spectacular route offers beautiful views of the lake and Monte Baldo on the opposite side. (ca 6 km)
- DAY 3: The coast road takes you to Malcesine and, from there, a gondola up Monte Baldo to 1760m. From here it’s an easy hike to the Belvedere view point and an unsurpassable view of Lake Garda and the surrounding mountains. Back to the gondola, get off at the middle station, and continue on foot to Malcesine (ca 6km; 450 m ascent)
- DAY 4: Today’s hike takes you to Lake Ledro, walking mostly on flat paths with incredible views of “the Blue Lagoon”. From there by bus to Canale, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, where you will continue your trek to Lake Tenno and the waterfall at Varone, a 90-meter cascade of water into a deep rocky gorge. And finally, back to the hotel by bus. (ca 15 km)
- DAY 5: From Torbole you first go uphill to the Church of Sant’Andrea, picturesquely situated in the middle of an olive grove. The panoramic Busatte Tempesta trail begins here, providing magnificent views of the lake and surrounding countryside. At the end of this exciting path lies the “Stairway to Heaven”, a decent in the direction of Lake Garda that seems to be floating above the lake (ca 10 km)
