mountain bike
X-Country Both for professional bikers seeking the best place for training, and for excursionists who enjoy being in contact with nature, Garda Trentino offers fabulous itineraries with breathtaking views and spectacular mountains all waiting to be explored, such as the Baldo and Monte Velo. Old mule tracks, military routes, forest paths and mountain refuges will take you into another dimension, far from the chaos of traffic and the stress of everyday life.
100% pure bike From cross country to free riding, from road cycling to downhill, without forgetting the easier bike trekking: in Garda Trentino, your bike is your steed, 12 months a year. The departure points lie at 60 m a.s.l. and reach peaks of more than 2000 m, offering slopes and trails for all kinds of bikers, all with a high adrenaline content. Many cycle paths offer relaxing itineraries for cycle tourists.
All Mountain According to all MTB experts, Garda Trentino is one of the ideal areas where to use the new mountain bikes, the socalled “All Mountain”. All Mountain is an activity practised by those bikers who love long climbs but also beautiful singletracks and the most technical descents. Even if this is not extreme biking like downhill/freeride, it is practised by trained and experienced bikers who want to enjoy “wow” landscapes and trails, using a proper high quality bike.
Bike
Bike Trekking The ideal activity for those who are not seeking taxing routes and exhausting climbs, but who wish to include all the family, the children and the odd friend who, although well-disposed, may not be in top form. Garda Trentino is the right place in which to enjoy a fabulous, healthy, interesting and exhilarating day dedicated to cycling, experience nature, meet people, savour the local flavours and get a bit of exercise.
Freeride/Downhill Garda Trentino is a favourite location for freeriders and downhillers from all over the world: challenging paths, immersed in the green of nature, with endless technical descents that start on mountain tops at over 2000 m a.s.l. and career down to the shores of Lake Garda. There is a wide range of possibilities and degrees of difficulty: from the “heavy-going” downhill/freeride, with bike-shuttle services, to the “pedal” where the only help you are going to get is your own legs!
road cycling Garda Trentino is the ideal place for unforgettable moments astride the saddle, thanks to its many itineraries and varied roads (more than 400 km) suitable for cycle touring and road cycling, alternating between the flat and the hilly. Champions such as Chiappucci, Fondriest and Moser have pedalled along our roads. Many are the ideal circuits: the famous "S. Barbara" climb, or the climbs towards Tenno and the Passo del Ballino and the tortuous bends of Drena with the Marocche biotope.
Some ascents to try: get in the saddle and ride! • Passo Santa Barbara start: Arco length: 15 km difference in height: 1079 m • Passo del Ballino start: Riva del Garda length: 15,7 km difference in height: 631 m • Passo San Udalrico start: Dro length: 7,3 km difference in height: 423 m

trail half way up the slopes we reach the Dosso Grande and then descend towards Arco. Variation in altitude: 300 m Time: 2/3 hours Level: easy
Stage 2: Arco - Canale di Tenno
100% pure trekking & nordic walking Itineraries to follow alone or with expert guides, through the woods and along the lake shore. Garda Trentino is a paradise for trekking and Nordic walking, counting on trails with exceptional views, and footpaths dotted with historical and artistic landmarks.
From the centre of Arco, we follow the stations of the cross which lead through the olive grove to the chapel of S. Maria di Laghel (altitude 220 m). We take trail sign 408 to the left and, after about 20 min, trail 407. At Bocca di Tovo we take trail 409, which joins trail 401 and then
skirts Monte Calino (1069 m) with only slight variations in altitude before arriving at the S. Pietro mountain refuge. From here we follow trail 401 down to the atmospheric medieval village of Canale, with its narrow cobbled streets, porticoes and inner courtyards.
Variation in altitude: 800 m Time: 3/5 hours Level: average
Stage 3: Canale di Tenno - Riva del Garda From Canale di Tenno, along trail 406 it is just a few minutes to Lake Tenno. Turning left here anticlockwise, we take the road leading towards Campi (668 m). Trail 402, which branches off to the right, leads to Bocca di Trat at 1581 m and the Nino Pernici mountain refuge. From here trail
413 on the left leads up to Dos dei Seaoi (1798 m) and then continues along a level stretch to Bocca di Saval (1720 m). The trail now continues with only slight changes in altitude along the top of the rocky crests overlooking Riva del Garda, 1200 m below.
The descent, along trail 404, is strenuous but magnificent.
Variation in altitude: 1400 m Time: 6/7 hours Level: advanced
Stage 4: Riva del Garda - Altissimo We follow the footpath leading along the shores of Lake Garda to Torbole. From the centre of the town, we climb towards the Parco delle Busatte. Trail no. 601 climbs gradually but steadily over the lake and past Malga Zures near Dos dei Frassini (707 m) and Malga Casina (930
m), before rising steeply towards Monte Varagna (1779 m). The trail then leads along a magnificent ridge via Monte di Nago (1875 m), and finally reaches the summit of Monte Altissimo at 2053 m, which allows one of the most magnificent and sweeping views in all of the
Alps. Just a few minutes away the Damiano Chiesa mountain refuge, at 2059 m, offers a chance for a well-earned rest.

area to the Sarca river and the old hydroelectric station of Fies. From here we continue along the edge of the marshy Laghi Soli area to enter the rocky, arid biotope again and return to our point of departure.

The climb to the Rocca peak (Cima Rocca) is one of the most interesting itineraries for pundits of field fortifications built during the war, where you can admire the breathtaking view of Lake Garda: the tunnel system “Alto Garda” on Sperone. Starting in Biacesa, the itinerary climbs up to the Caregna junction and then turns onto the mule path posted as SAT No. 417
up to the small church of S. Giovanni. By following the Rocca path you reach the entrance to the first tunnel; the tour continues along the network of tunnels up to the path that leads to the peak of Sperone or Cima Rocca. From there: a) one can descend north along the equipped path that ends on the western slope; b) from the peak one can return back to the entrance to the third

Time: approx. 2.30 hours Level: easy
Tagliata del Ponale is a fortification tunnel-system consisting in a complex of corridors and trenches excavated directly above Lake Garda in a unique panoramic location in the years 1904-1918. It can be reached from Riva del Garda following the “old Ponale road”. The undoubtedly most spectacular arte-
fact of the fortification is the long flight of steps that descends from the third tunnel towards lake level. The steps end a few metres above lake level with four large apertures towards Lake Garda: two posts opening outwards for cannons and two observation posts. The rock complex is very intricate and includes arms and am-

Pelèr or Vent del Sarca: permanent wind which blows from the north and lasts 12 hours, extending across most of the lake’s surface and joining or feeding other winds. In good weather it starts blowing from the evening until 10:00 and 11:00 a.m. First it blows in the northern and middle Riva del Garda

100% pure canyoning
Do you need powerful emotions? If so, Garda Trentino is perfect for you: throw yourself headfirst into the torrents which descend from the mountains towards the lake. Do it, but together with a guide from the canyoning centres, which organize daily trips during the nice season. Canyoning is possible on Lake Garda and also in the Ledro Valley. The routes are only known to few people because the guides are possessive over them! Put on a wetsuit, a helmet and a harness, and brave the fast Trentino torrents which are immersed within the woods, flowing between rocks to meet small lakes unknown even to those who live here.

The thrill of scuba diving in Lake Garda. Discover breathtaking panoramas of rock and canyon, explore the lakebed with its mysterious historical wrecks, shoals of perch, pike and burbot. Just dive down to this oasis of silence and calm and let the spirit of adventure guide you through the clear fresh water of Italy's largest lake. Don't miss: the inlets at Tempesta, the sheer cliffs of Calcarolle, or in the harbour of San Nicolò of Riva del Garda, the statue of the Silent Christ at a depth of 15 m, by the local artist Germano Alberti.
When the lake is calm, you can enjoy the magic of the surrounding countryside in absolute silence on board the many coloured “piroghe”. On the other hand, if you have a more dynamic and competitive spirit, you can't afford to miss the slalom at the mouth of the River Sarca at the Lido of Arco.
