<\/i> Presentation of Lake Garda<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Lake Garda<\/strong> is the largest of Italy’s lakes, located north of the road connecting Brescia to the west and Verona to the east.
While its southern half is suited to holidaymaking, with gentle relief bordering its shores, the northern half resembles more a fjord, often bordered by steep mountain walls.
It straddles three administrative regions: Lombardy to the west, Veneto to the east, and Trentino-Alto Adige to the north.
It is an attractive destination for a variety of reasons, from water activities thanks to the expanse of its waters to trekking with trails that reach the surrounding peaks, not to mention the inevitable cultural tourism and relaxation. The shores have historic towns whose heritage is sometimes unique, with places of great natural beauty, such as above all Sirmione and its medieval castle to the south, or Peschiera with its Venetian citadel amid the waters of the estuary, Riva del Garda to the north and its windsurfing spot, and so on.<\/p>\n
