Lakes and Mountains in Garda
Holidays to Lake Garda
Lake Garda is known as the Olive Riviera with surprisingly Mediterranean flora and attractive villas. It has a Mediterranean climate, rolling hills with planted vineyards and olive trees in the background. Garda is a popular resort which gave the lake its name and it still preserves the characteristics of its historic past. With a wide sheltered bay and a long curved pebble beach lapped by the clear blue waters of the lake, Garda enjoys an idyllic position less than an hour from the historic city of Verona. A long wide traffic-free promenade lies beside the lake with delightful lively colourful cafes, open-air restaurants, cheerful bars and many shops and boutiques.
