Majestic Mountains & Italy’s Largest Lake
Ah, bella Italia. A land of history, culture... but also of contrasts. Here, cut-glass alpine peaks tower just around the bend from lemon groves and turquoise waters. Gingerbread villages huddle at one end of a valley, while tile rooftops bask in the sun at the other. This is the road from the Dolomites to the Italian Lakes. Where you can have your strudel, and eat it too.
Highlights
- Discover North Lake Garda, where the dramatic cliffs plunge tothe shoreline and bucolic pastures and sun-drenched hamlets dot the Tremosine plateau
- Hike through dreamy alpine meadows and along rugged mountains in the World Heritage site of Schlern-Rosengarten National Park
- Journey across cultural borderlines, from the German-speaking villages of South Tyrol to the Mediterranean breadbasket of Lago di Garda
- Unwind at luxurious Italian retreats that welcome us with indulgent cuisine, spa offerings and the best of la dolce vita
