Italy's largest and arguably most beautiful lake

Lake Garda is encased by dramatic mountains to the north, where the waters run deepest and opening up to lower, rolling land to the south. The popular Gardaland Theme Park is one of the most popular in Europe and mountain top villages and towns play host to fantastic concerts that are held in the late evening. Lake Garda itself can be experienced not only through its beauty but also by river cruise and even swimming at one of the beaches. With Verona and Venice within easy reach not to mention the Dolomites this region is a must for anyone hoping to sample true Italian culture with atmospheric concerts and excellent food among the many the highlights.
