History, Nature and Fun a stone's throw from Lake Garda

Its strategic location allows guests to reach some of the most fascinating destinations in Northern Italy within minutes, catering to every type of traveler: from couples seeking romance, to families with children, and enthusiasts of sports, food and wine, and art.

Walks on Lake Garda, Verona side

The Veronese shore of Lake Garda is a blend of charm and authenticity. Get lost among the cobbled streets and small harbors of Lazise, Bardolino, Garda, and Torri del Benaco. These small towns, each with its own soul, offer beautiful walks, local markets, lakeside restaurants, and moments of pure relaxation.

Fairytale villages and castles

For those seeking more intimate and picturesque settings, the surrounding area offers true hidden gems: Castellaro Lagusello, one of the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy, enchants with its medieval charm; Borghetto sul Mincio, with its striking Visconti Bridge, is the perfect spot to enjoy local specialties along the river. And finally, Sirmione, overlooking Lake Garda and also reachable by boat, offers postcard-worthy views and a journey through history with Roman baths and ancient castles.

For lovers of history and social life: Verona awaits you

Romantic and vibrant, Verona is a timeless gem. Be enchanted by the majestic Basilica of San Zeno and the elegance of its squares. Relive the legend of Romeo and Juliet in front of the famous Juliet’s Balcony, admire the grandeur of the Roman Arena, and enjoy an aperitif among the frescoed houses of Piazza Erbe. Complete the experience with a stroll along the walls of Castelvecchio and across the Ponte Pietra, ending with a breathtaking view from the Torricelle, between the Roman Theatre and Castel San Pietro. Verona is a city to be experienced with all the senses.

Cultural immersion in Mantua, capital of art

A refined city rich in history, Mantua captivates with its glorious Renaissance past. Discover the splendor of the Gonzaga family by visiting the sumptuous Ducal Palace, the elegant Palazzo Te, the evocative Castle of San Giorgio, and the graceful Piazza Sordello. In summer, enjoy a relaxing boat trip on the three lakes that surround the city, amid enchanting lotus flowers. A cultural and nature-filled experience like no other.

Cycling through the Morainic Hills and the Mincio Park

The Relais is also a perfect starting point for those traveling by bike. Set off directly from the property to explore the gentle ups and downs of the morainic hills, or follow the scenic cycle path that leads to Mantua, tracing the course of the Mincio River within the namesake natural park. A green and rejuvenating experience.

Adventures on Monte Baldo

Nature and hiking enthusiasts cannot miss a trek on Mount Baldo, accessible via the modern panoramic cable car from Malcesine. Once at the top, a variety of trails await you—ranging from easy walks to more adventurous routes—with breathtaking views of the lake and the Alps.
