Things to do when camping in Lake Garda

If you’re taking a camping holiday in Lake Garda, be sure to visit the beautiful and romantic city of Verona. Operas are staged in the Arena di Verona, one of the best-preserved Roman amphitheatres in the world, and the forum has become the Piazza delle Erbe, a rich confection of Medieval and Renaissance buildings.

Gardaland is Italy’s largest magical theme park, located to the south of Lake Garda and close to many of our campsites. The theme park is set out in realms of history, geography, space and fantasy, and has many exhilarating rides: from the Blue Tornado to the Sequoia Adventure.

The local tourist board claims Lake Garda to be the “best bike resort in Europe”. With hundreds of miles of excellent trails heading into the craggy peaks that surround the water, we find it difficult to disagree.

As if Lake Garda isn’t breathtaking enough from the water’s edge, take a ride on the cable car to experience the stunning views from the top of Monte Baldo. Be prepared for the cabin to turn through 360 degrees as it reaches the upper sections of the route.

The spa town of Sirmione stands on a peninsula at the southern end of Lake Garda. As well as mud baths and massages, you can visit the moated castle, take ferry trips to other towns around the lake, or just enjoy the shops – especially the amazing gelato stores… The Grotte di Catullo is a vast ruined Roman villa, named after the poet Catullus.

A simple building set in an olive grove, the San Pietro church is believed to be one of the oldest places of worship in the area, and contains some beautiful 13th and 14th century frescoes. Visit the famous walled lemon houses and buy a bottle of the local cold-pressed olive oil to take home.
