Lago di Garda

Lake Garda (Lago di Garda ) is the largest lake in Italy. It is located in Northern Italy near Verona. It was formed by glaciers in the last ice age. Being easily accessible from the north via the Brenner Pass, the lake is a major tourist destination for northern Europeans, including a number of exclusive hotels and resorts along its shore.


The southern part of Lake Garda is easily accessible also and is a popoular destination in summer. The southern part of the lake is the widest and most accessible to tourists whilst the noth is narrower and deeper with higher mountains and deeper waters to a maximum depth of 360 metres



The south eastern town of Bardolino looking north is a popular tourist destination


With many classical villas


And beautiful promenades



And just north is Garda, the town after which the lake was named

Ciao a tutti
