Old Port of Desenzano del Garda

Highlight • Settlement

Desenzano del Garda. Pearl of Lake Garda. Do not miss the Porto Vecchio and the promenade along the long pier of the tourist port. Beautiful lakefront with gardens and fountains.

Scaliger Castle (Sirmione)

Highlight • Castle

Sirmione is the southernmost town on Lake Garda. It is located in the province of Brescia. In the municipality there are many points of interest and refreshments. The historic center is not accessible by bicycle, so you will have to get off and push it by hand or park it. There are many places to park your bike at the entrance to the Scaligero Castle.

Peschiera del Garda — Historic Center and Canals

Highlight • Historical Site

To the east of the gentle, almost completely flat meadow landscape of the south bank is the bustling Peschiera del Garda. Its location on the Mincio - the only outflow of Lake Garda - gave the town of 9,000 inhabitants special strategic importance early on.

Today it is particularly an important hub for train travelers, as it has a train station - like only Desenzano on the lake. This is just a stone's throw from the old town and, among other things, a stop for the express trains on the Milan-Venice route.

Peschiera's old town, completely surrounded by canals, lies within a mighty, beautifully overgrown fortress. When strolling through the narrow streets - which are not dominated by tourism - you will find many nice shops and small bars.

On the flat shore between Peschiera and Sirmione there are good swimming opportunities and numerous campsites with large meadow areas that extend to the lake. The popular Gardaland amusement park is just two kilometers from Peschiera and the hinterland with its moraine hills and the pretty Mincio river is also a wonderful destination.

And just like every year, the season opens with a nice ride and with splendid company in memory of the last training session on March 8, 2020, exorcising the sad and long Lockdown

April 16, 2025, Rundtour Camping San Francesco Peschiera del Garda

From the campsite, we headed toward Sirmione and onto the lakeside path. Later, we followed the main road to Peschiera, rejoining the lakeside path just before reaching town. After a walk around Peschiera del Garda, we continued along the EV6 road for a bit alongside the Canale Seriola. After the Castelo Scaligero di Ponti Sul Mincio, we returned to the busy SP13 on adventurous singletrack.

The AIDA route shown cannot be used due to a motorway construction site. Alternative on the other picture.
