Lake Garda: Italy’s Shimmering Jewel

We’ve always had a soft spot for the Italian Lakes (natural beauty, sleepy lakeside villages, watersports and gelato – what’s not to like?), so when holiday home rental agency Discover Lake Garda approached us to write travel web copy about one of Northern Italy’s most beloved holiday destinations, we were more than happy to oblige.

We wanted to provide potential holidaymakers with an informative overview of the popular Italian holiday spot, including a brief history of the region. We also wanted to help visitors differentiate between the many resort towns on the lake, as well as offering basic travel and transport advice for the area.

Ever wondered where to go in Lake Garda? Wonder no more. Our overview will help you get oriented with the great lake, explaining the differences between the northern and southern regions and covering the main holiday towns around the lake’s edge including Garda, Riva del Garda and Bardolino.
