Lake Garda’s views

Mount Baldo is a destination all picture lovers should not miss when visiting Lake Garda. On a fine day, it is possible to admire Garda’s entire reach from the top (55 kilometres from Riva to Peschiera). The same cableway which brings one up from Malcesine to the top was made in order to admire the breathtaking view: in fact, the cabin rotates at 360° while it goes up, allowing everyone to admire and to take pictures of the splendid view from different points.
