Travel Tips: a magical Autumn on Lake Garda

Lake Garda is rich in tourist attractions and experiences for all tastes: gourmets will find numerous restaurants, trattorias and agriturismi, where they can discover the local delicacies while admiring the splendid panorama of the lake. Those who prefer active holidays will be able to explore many nature trails, to be followed on foot or by bike, or can enjoy numerous water sports.

Here are a few more ideas to enrich your stay on the lake:

 

VISIT THE FORTRESS OF LONATO

The Rocca di Lonato stands on top of one of the hills of the morainic amphitheatre that dominates the southern part of Lake Garda. The fortification, initially intended for military and defensive purposes, today hosts various cultural events and attracts numerous visitors thanks to the splendid panoramic view of the lake and mountains. 🤩 The Rocca is connected to the "Casa del Podestà" Museum, a veritable "library house" that houses a collection of around 50,000 volumes; it also houses the Civic Ornithological Museum, with around 700 specimens of Italian avifauna.

Distance from the Hotel: 7 km

DISCOVER THE VITTORIALE DEGLI ITALIANI

The Vittoriale is a great little world in itself, perfectly set in the lake district. It is a monumental complex erected at the behest of Gabriele d'Annunzio starting in 1921. The famous poet, after staying in Gardone Riviera, decided to buy the property on which the Vittoriale now stands and make it a realm of memory of his own exceptional life and that of the Italian people during the First World War.

Distance from the hotel: 25 km. Find out more at www.vittoriale.it

EXPLORE THE SANCTUARY OF MONTECASTELLO

The sanctuary (pictured) stands on a rocky spur overlooking the lake near Tignale and offers a unique panorama: the view sweeps from the peaks of Monte Baldo to the Sirmione peninsula. Rising on the ruins of an ancient temple, later transformed into a castle, it houses a small temple dating back to 800 AD. A path leads from the sanctuary up the mountain, offering enchanting views of the lake.
