Lakes in Italy: Beautiful Lake Garda Italy by Christopher Panduro The crystal clear waters of Lake Garda are perfect for swimming and many popular sports such as windsurfing and sailing. The local climate is softened by the presence of this large body of water, which makes it comfortable
for exploring the towns and villages on and close to the
lake towns such as Garda, Lazise, Sirmione, Torri del
Benaco Bardolino, Limone and Peschiera which are
wonderful places to visit with a great choice of hotels,
villas and Holiday homes or just for wandering around
the cobbled streets filled with shops, hotels and
restaurants and are home to bustling lakeside
markets. Do visit the old
port of Torbole,
the
charming old streets of Limone and the castle and Roman
Villa in Sirmione. From Malcesine you can take a cable
car onto Monte Baldo for some mountain walking and
superb views. Walks on the lake shore from Lazie or
Bardolino also help to work up an appetite.On the
southern shore, jutting into lake garda, lays Sirmione
with its quiet cobblestone
streets, thermal baths, fairytale
castle, olive groves and quaint hotels. Gazing
across Lake Garda from the town of Desenzano on
its southwest bank, the view is quite spectacular. Lake
Garda’s has more in common with southern Italy. The
Veronese east bank of the Lake produces olive oil and
famous wines, such as Valpolicella and Bardolino.
Looming above the area is Mount Baldo with its three peaks. Projecting through the last glacial sheet, its unique flora is a throwback to pre-glacial times.The rich soil and mild climate of the lake area encourages an abundance of wildlife and flora. Cedars, olives, lemon and palm trees flourish and the gorgeous shoreline offers pristine beaches. Numerous ancient castles dot the hillsides. The cablecar ride to Monte Baldo provides magnificent views of Lake Garda and the mountains beyond.www.lakegarda.biz hopes you will enjoy your visit and will find our web site useful, please feel free to contact us if you have any more questions regarding the lake.
