Riva del Garda |
Lake Garda is particularly charming. The color blue of the water is more intense, the sunlight more vivid and the air is oxygenated by the mountains and purified by the Lake Garda breeze which blows and fills the colored sails of the windsurfs. The beaches, surrounded by vegetation or steep rocks, are wide and sunny. The Mediterranean vegetation consisting of olive trees, lemon trees, palms and bay trees, record the changing of the seasons. Here, where the lake ends and the Brenta Dolomites start, the tourist can enjoy a splendid holiday full of opportunities: history, art, sports and nature, the warm welcome, the excellent hotel facilities and the characteristic restaurants. There are clues to its millenarian history, the unmistakable signs of civilization, of art and culture that survived and preserved today through the difficult periods of the Middle Ages and Estates.
Nearby there stands the Rocca built in 1124 to defend the lake, today seat of the Civic Museum and of the Picture Gallery. Baroque buildings such as the church of the Inviolata and the one dedicated to S. M. Assunta are of great interest. Riva del Garda offers its tourists the opportunity to practise all sports according to the taste: sailing, surfing, sports angling, walking, bowls, cycling, tennis, climbing, canoeing, etc.
