Lake Garda Self-guided Family Cycling Tour

Lake Garda and the surrounding hills provide the backdrop, while with your family you can look for medieval castles, visit fairy-tale villages, or spend a fun day among the colors at Sigurtà Park, an oasis of nature not far from the lake. The bike trails are kid-friendly, and there's even room to relax: the shores of the lake or the hotel's swimming pool are within easy reach! 

Highlights:

  • The overnight stay in a special hotel, in an old renovated station
