Lake Garda is one of the major tourist attractions in Northern Italy.
It covers three regions: Veneto, Lombardy and Trentino Alto Adige. Every town on its shores has a peculiarity compared to all the others, no matter how much you go around everything is always very different and you never get tired of exploring it.
Here we will name just a few of the wonderful destinations that will amaze you.
When you think of Italy this is one of the places that best represents it among its thousand shades and colors.
SALO’
We start from the western shore of the lake and then approach the eastern shore, that of Veneto.
On the western shore, which is part of the province of Brescia, there is the historic and very famous city of Salò. This witnessed the Second World War in the foreground when General Mussolini took refuge there, establishing the so-called Republic of Salò.
But nearby is the immense Vittoriale degli Italiani, a monument adorned with large gardens overlooking the lake, designed and inhabited by Gabriele d’Annunzio, a great poet between the two wars.It can now be visited, we recommend going in the morning so you can make the most of the day and above all remember to buy a ticket! You can also do it online from the official website that we write below:

PESCHIERA DEL GARDA
Here in Peschiera del Garda, the closest point from our Residence, you can have a real Italian experience by renting a Vespa you can do a panoramic tour of the lake independently!
Peschiera has a very nice center but it is not very big, we recommend you spend a day at Gardaland and in the evening stop to visit this small medieval village … it will be worth it!
LAZISE
Finally we suggest another medieval village: Lazise.
>Here you can admire the fascinating Scaligero castle and enter through the walls, like in a movie you will see the drawbridge and the river below. It will be a magical experience, also all surrounded by the wonderful lake.
>Of course you can swim in the lake but we recommend you find suitable spots, there are beaches for this, do not put yourself in danger!
Peschiera del Garda and Lazise are only 40 minutes away from our Residence La Mason. Take advantage of the motorway near us to halve your travel time and enjoy your day at the lake!
