Lake Garda holidays
For adventures in a stunning setting, look no further than Lake Garda. This majestic lake paints a very pretty picture of rugged alpine vistas, idyllic waterfront towns and lush vineyards. At the north end, things are set for all sorts of sports, from biking and hiking to sailing and windsurfing. Further south, it’s more about taking things easy with a spot of village-hopping, a splash of wine tasting and lots of al fresco dining. And each lakeside spot comes with its own unique charm. Gardone Riviera oozes old-world elegance, while Limone has a laid-back Mediterranean flavour. The medieval town of Peschiera showcases sights aplenty, along with the full-on family fun of Gardaland nearby. As for evenings, what could be lovelier than a gentle waterside saunter?Popular Lake Garda Holiday Resorts

Magnificent mountains
Stretching between the Alps and the Dolomites, the imposing mountain backdrop frames the lake and is the perfect playground for outdoorsy types. Hiking, mountain biking, cycling and water sports are all popular activities. There’s even a cycle track spanning the entire lake being built! Don’t miss a ride on the funicular from Malcesine to the top of Monte Baldo for breathtaking views of the lake.
Charming towns
One of the best bits of Lake Garda is exploring the picturesque towns that dot the scenic shoreline. Spend your days village-hopping – you can take the bus or visit by boat. Why not take a leisurely stroll around the cobbled streets of Peschiera or head to Sirmione to discover its 13th century castle? Keep an eye out for the weekday market that tours around, popping up at a different resort every day!
Full of flavour
The rolling hills to the east produce the famous full-bodied wines, Bardolino and Valpolicella. This region flourishes with olive groves and fragrant lemon orchards. Be sure to dine al fresco in Limone and sample delicious dishes made with fresh local produce for a true taste of la dolce vita.
Garda
This handsome town is a colourful fishing village and a great base for getting around the region.
Peschiera
Shops, cafés and trattorias aplenty can be found within Peschiera’s medieval walls, so leave no historic stone unturned.
Malcesine

Castelnuovo del Garda
Snuggled away on Lake Garda’s south-east coast and just 15km west of Verona, Castelnuovo is in a great location for an idyllic Italian escape.
Cisano
Tranquil, charming and historic all at once, Cisano is a pastel-tinged gem on Lake Garda. It’s poised for fun in the sun, whether you’re whisking the kids away or you're an outdoorsy type after a budget-friendly break.
Desenzano
Classic old villas, cathedrals and a glitzy marina all flank the lakeside in Desenzano.
Lazise
Sitting pretty at the south-eastern end of the lake, Lazise is as lovely as they come.
Beaches
For family fun, water sports in Salou and Cap Salou are excellent – especially if you’re a thrill seeker! Out of the way, you’ll even stumble across unblemished beaches which are surrounded by woodlands just a few kilometres from Tarragona. If it’s golden coast you’re after, this is the place.
