Lake Garda is the largest and most popular of the Italian lakes with its scenery changing from stunning craggy mountains in the north, to rich countryside and vineyards in the east.
Verona is probably one of the best known cities by Lake Garda and was the setting for Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet's balcony scene. Malcesine is a superb lakeside resort and a trip up the cable car is a must for all who come here.
The clear waters of the lake are ideal for swimming and watersports and the area in general is a highlight for any walking enthusiast. |
