Meet&greet and bike fitting at Itinera a Verona.
Van transfer (people and bikes) from Verona to Vicenza.
Overnight in Vicenza.
The route leaves Vicenza, the charming city of Andrea Palladio, heading North to the countryside, surrounded by corn fields! We ride North towards the first elevation of the Prealps. On the way, the village of Marostica deserves a visit because of the famous chess square, where every two year a living chess match takes place. Finally, the itinerary gets to Bassano del Grappa passing by Villa Angarano, designed by Andrea Palladio. Don’t get there too late, Bassano is a charming town at the foot of the mountains that features a famous wooden bridge.
Overnight in Bassano del Grappa.
The itinerary follows the river Brenta all day long. Initially, the river goes through the mountains along a green valleys that get more and more narrow until the itinerary follows a bike path that is flanked by the water of the river and the rocks of the mountains. The bike path continues in Valsugana, a large valley surrounded by high mountains, crosses cultivated fields and forests until it gets to Borgo Valsugana, a charming village overlooked by a castle.
Overnight in Borgo Valsugana.
The itinerary keeps following the Valsugana bike path until it reaches two lakes at the beginning of the valley. The route flanks Lake Caldonazzo and with a small detour it is possible to reach the little Lake of Levico: in both lakes it is difficult to resist the temptation of a dive in the refreshing water! The last miles of the route are downhill until the city of Trento. Dedicate some time to the visit of the city: the Cathedral of San Vigilio and the Castle of Buonconsiglio are unmissable.
Overnight in Trento.
Trento, a bike-friendly city, is crossed by river Adige. The itinerary follows the bike path that flanks the river, heading south: the valley is spotted with many medieval castles, visible from the bike path. The route passes by Rovereto and goes West, by the small Loppio Lake and reaches San Giovanni Pass. Here comes Lake Garda!
Overnight in Torbole.
Torbole and Riva del Garda are located in a beautiful position in the Northern corner of Lake Garda among green mountains (Monte Baldo, Monte Altissimo, Stivo and Misone) and by River Sarca, one of the main tributaries of Lake Garda. Today we’ll ride by its waters and discover the green plain Northern of Riva and Torbole.
Second overnight in Torbole
Today we hop on a ferry which will take us from Torbole to Garda, slow and scenic, bring a book with you, and sun cream. Once we reach Garda we get on the bikes and, after some kilometers by the water, we climb our last hill and reach a canal. There the bike path will take us to Verona.
Overnight in Verona.
Breakfast, check out and individual departure. Arrivederci!
