Forecast for Garda Trentino

10-day forecast
Due to the proximity to the Mediterranean Sea and the associated warm climate, visitors are offered a perfect setting for easy hikes and walks. From a landscape point of view, the area benefits mainly from its proximity to the Alps. To the north of the lake shore there are many options for hiking. It is logical that the great Goethe was also impressed by the region. When he visited Garda Trentino in 1786, he described its beauty in his diary.

On tourism and a long history

Riva del Garda has become a popular destination for tourists from all over the world. But apart from the beaches overcrowded during the high season, the 30.000 inhabitants city has a lot of history to offer. Riva did not always belong to Italy. In former times, it was part of Austria-Hungary. The fortifications defending the former fortress can still be seen today. Hikers can discover them either at close range during a walk to the Chapel of Santa Barbara or by climbing Monte Brione.

Out on mountains and along valleys

It doesn't always have to be the classic city stroll on vacation. For those who like it a little sportier, the area around Lake Garda has a lot to offer. Lake Ledro is a popular destination. On a hike you can always enjoy breathtaking views. Lake Tenno is no less exciting. Outdoor enthusiasts can reach it on a six-hour hike from Varone. Those who don't want to leave beautiful Lake Garda can find a family-friendly hike on Ponale road on the lake's west bank.

Doss del Sabion by Fabian
September 16, 2025 · Community
Schöne Rundtour mit traumhaften Blicken auf die Brenta-Dolomitengruppe, sobald man den Gipfel erreicht. Die Laufrichtung des Tracks sollte man unbedingt einhalten, denn so ist der Aufstieg wesentlich einfacher, als umgekehrt. Man sollte auch unbedingt die Zeiten der Seilbahn berücksichigen, denn die letzte fährt bereits um 17.20 Uhr zurück ins Tal. Verpasst man diese, muss man knapp 700 hm auf nur etwas über 3 km bergab laufen, was sich enorm zieht. Da man die Tour aber ohnehin in der Regel morgens oder vormittags startet, sollte das üblicherweise kein Problem sein. In meinem Fall hatte ich aufgrund einer späteren Ankunft erst nach der Mittagspause die Seilbahn nach oben nutzen können (14.30 Uhr) und daher die Seilbahn nicht mehr rechtzeitig erreichen können. Die Preise der Seilbahn sind, ohne vergleichbare Erfahrungen, nach meiner Einschätzung in Ordnung. Gerade die Rückfahrt ins Tal bei einem Kombiticket für 5 EUR geht absolut klar. Unklar ist für mich, ob man bis zur Mittelstation auch mit dem Auto fahren kann oder nicht. Es standen einige dort, aber durchweg italienische und ich vermute, dass es sich um die des Personals dort handelt.

Wanderung auf die Cima della Nara und die Cima al Bal in den Gardaseebergen by Benjamin
September 09, 2025 · Community
Spektakuläre Tour! Allerdings sind bestimmte Abschnitte der Tour wohl wenig begangen und daher etwas zugewachsen und unscheinbar. Daher gilt es stets aufmerksam zu sein, um sich nicht zu verlaufen.
