Italy’s most famous lake, Lake Garda, is between Venice and Milan in northern Italy. With shimmery water and scenic greenery, this is the perfect destination for those who want to relax or experience new, memorable adventures. Get around by boat to get to know this beautiful lake in the best way.
The lake offers many beautiful places, we recommend the mountainous village “Limone sul Garda” which lies in the northwestern part. There are amazing hiking trails, dense forests, perfect cycling trails and magical views. Do not forget to visit “La Limonaia del Castel” when you are here. Enjoy the fragrance from the beautiful, white-flowered lemon trees and taste a refreshing lemonade!
