Peschiera del Garda, Torbole, Desenzano: three amazing sides of the Garda Lake to be explored by bike
The best of Lake Garda! This itinerary visits some of the most famous spots by the largest Italian lake and some off-the- beaten-tracks destinations, starting and finishing the tour in Verona. You’ll first discover the Southern side the lake and its rolling hills, passing by charming lakeside villages such as Lazise and Bardolino. Then you will transfer North by ferry: here, the landscape is completely different and you’ll find yourself surrounded by high mountains. The last days explore the hilly area between Salò and Desenzano, covered with large olive groves, and the iconic village of Sirmione.

Individual arrival in Verona. Meet&greet and Bike fitting in Verona
Overnight in Verona
The itinerary heads out of Verona and discovers roads flanked by elegant cypresses surrounded by vineyards and small rolling hills. The route goes slightly up and down until the panoramic Custoza hill. The road takes you to Borghetto sul Mincio, a real-life fairytale village that features beautiful watermills, a castle and a massive fortified bridge. Finally, you’ll reach Peschiera del Garda following the river Mincio bike path.
Overnight in Peschiera.
Looking for the best spots to enjoy the Lake’s panorama, the itinerary crosses some typical villages such as Colà , famous for the hot spring, and then heads North partially inland and by the lake shore. Lazise and Bardolino are beautifully set by the water. Take time to walk on their docks before cycling to Garda. There you’ll catch a slow and panoramic ferry that brings you to Torbole.
Overnight in Torbole.
Torbole and Riva del Garda are located in a beautiful position in the Northern corner of Lake Garda among green mountains and by Sarca river, the main tributary of Lake Garda. Today you’ll ride by its waters and discover a green plain with crystal water lakes.
Second overnight in Torbole.
After a ferry transfer from Torbole to Salò, a charming town on the Western side of the lake, you will ride up on the hills of Valtenesi, a wine region also famous for excellent olive oil production. This short itinerary crosses the entire region, dotted with many tiny villages and farms, until it gets to Desenzano del Garda, the major town in the South of Lake Garda.
Overnight in Desenzano.
The first part of today’s ride explores the southern side of Lake Garda, away from the crowds by the lake side. The ride goes up and down rolling hills cultivated with various crops and crosses tiny hamlets and the charming village of Solferino. The last part of the route goes back to the lake side, towards the town of Sirmione: expect tourist crowds here, but Sirmione’s fame is well-deserved!
Second overnight in Desenzano
Our last ride initially crosses the area where the Lugana white wine is produced, where rolling hills are covered with large vineyards and olive groves. Once in Peschiera Del Garda the itinerary climbs the Morainic hills until it gets to the bike path by a canal that leads into the heart of the beautiful city of Verona.
Overnight in Verona.
Breakfast, check out and individual departure. Arrivederci!
