The Mediterranean
environment on the
shores of Lake Garda,
which looks like a
Norwegian Fjord here,
dominated by Monte
Baldo, is already a
great reason to return
to Malcesine.
The old town centre
still shows its medieval
origins; through the
picturesque lanes you
reach the Scaligero
Castle, home to
important exhibitions
and the Monte Baldo and
Lake Garda Natural
History Museum.
The local landscape
features gardens
bursting with oleander
and the enormous olive
groves which provide
such delicious olive
oil.
Behind us stands the
impressive bulk of the
Monte Baldo massif, a
true botanical garden
for the variety of the
flora and also known as
the “Garden of Europe”.
Via the rotating
cable car you can
ascend from the
Mediterranean
environment of the lake
to the alpine landscape
of Monte Baldo in just a
few minutes, and enjoy
the extraordinary view.
The climate, featuring
hot, breezy summers and
mild winters, can be
compared to the climate
of Mediterranean
countries.
Nature, culture,
sport, wine & food and
tradition are sources of
particular interest here
in all seasons. |
