Around Lake Garda

Bussolengo is located directly on the Adige in the middle of the hilly landscape of the Venetian Prealps. On the first stage you follow the river to Verona, the romantic, elegant and blooming city of Romeo and Juliet. Verona's old town has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000 and is a place full of history, culture, architecture and joie de vivre. Over the hills of the southern Lake Garda region you cycle back to Bussolengo via Sommacampagna.

Overnight stay: Bussolengo

The second stage takes you near Peschiera on the shores of Lake Garda. Other lively stops along the route include Desenzano, Padenghe and Moniga. The destination for the day is Salò, located in a bay on the west side of Lake Garda. The branching streets and alleys and especially the well-known “Lungolago” are typical of Salò. It's best to get an ice cream in one of the many gelaterias and take a leisurely stroll along the lake promenade.

Overnight stay: Salò

Today you cycle comfortably along the water to Gargnano. From there you take the ferry (ticket included) directly to Limone, known not only for its lemon gardens. Then you follow the “most spectacular cycle path in Europe”. Over a section of a few kilometers, the newly opened cycle path partially floats freely above the lake - 50 m above the water.

Overnight stay in Limone

You will pass the two northernmost towns on Lake Garda, Riva del Garda and Torbole. The northern Lake Garda region is particularly popular with water sports enthusiasts, climbers and cyclists. On the east side of the lake you will finally reach Malcesine at the foot of Monte Baldo. You can take a shortcut across the lake by boat (ticket for 1 boat trip on this day included).

Overnight stay: Malcesine

Today's stage forms a clear contrast to the rest of the tour - you take the cable car/transfer (ticket included) to the starting point at almost 1.700 m on the ridge of Monte Baldo. A beautifully situated mountain road with a breathtaking view then leads downhill back downhill into more “Mediterranean” regions, a real pleasure tour. The destination of this stage is the town of Garda, where you return from the quiet hinterland to the lively shore.

Overnight stay: Garda

From Garda you cycle along the lake to Bardolino and on to Lazise. Be sure to stop by one of the many waterside restaurants or stroll through the alleys of the towns of Bardolino and Lazise. Finally we go through the hilly hinterland to Bussolengo
