Lakeside Promenade of Lake Garda

Highlight • Lake

On the road from Riva to Navene you still have a bit of space as a tourist driver. But back you should go by boat from Malcesine to Riva del Garda.

View of Riva del Garda from the Ponale Trail

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Ponale path is one of the most spectacular in Europe, both by bike and on foot. In some spots, like this one, you can admire Riva del Garda from a unique perspective. Stop, turn around and observe the surroundings from this vantage point.

The Ponale Gorge (Ponale Road)

Highlight • Cycleway

This panoramic road is perfect for cycling in a remarkable setting between the lakes of Ledro and Garda. Here, in fact, the slopes are never excessive, the views of Lake Garda are frequent and wonderful. Finally, you will often have a high rock wall at your side, which makes everything even more suggestive.

Lake Ledro

Highlight • Lake

Lake Ledro, located at an altitude of 650 metres, represents one of the scenic excellences of Trentino. Its turquoise and clear waters offer the opportunity to practice various water sports such as canoeing, windsurfing and sailing, thanks also to the summer temperatures of around 24°C. The scenic walk around its 10km perimeter is a highly popular option, while one of the four beaches welcomes visitors with pets.

Unfortunately, it was not possible to walk around Lake Ledro because of a construction site!

Finally the Ponale worked. The first time it was blocked, the second time I couldn't find the top part and the third time it didn't look good either. Komoot didn't fully know the route and still wanted to include sections on the busy road. But it works without the road. Shortly before the old road joins the new road, turn …

From Navene to Lake Ledro
46 km 750 meters in altitude over the old Ponale road.
Demanding tour with a breathtaking view of Lake Garda.
The first approx. 3 km demanding mountain bike route, partly very graveled piste.
But what is rewarded with grandiose views of the lake. Then paved and good bike paths with inclines of approx. 20% in …

Today my wife has a break (wellness/spa) and I'm picking up my pace...since we had already driven part of the route yesterday, getting into Val di Ledro was even easier.
I decided to go back and forth via the Ponale, a paved hiking/cycling path. Komoot's recommendations on the busy road were out of the question.
Many, sometimes steep, climbs just …

My plan for a relaxing bike ride to Limone was abruptly interrupted by a 🚧 in the bike tunnel. So I turned around and looked for an alternative.
The 🔋 was full, so off I went to the ⛰️.
The Strada Ponale first to Madona and then around Lake Ledro.

Today we are going to the "queen's stage" of our vacation. About the old Ponale up to Lago di Ledro. It is said to be 600 meters higher than Lake Garda. That's what we want to see.
We know from various YouTube videos that the Ponale leads up to more than 300 meters over Lake Garda. Can't we imagine it …
