The University of Sailing, in Campione, and the many sailing clubs of the lake municipalities organise courses for everyone: boat trips, sailing lessons, SUP, surfing and kiteboarding. Tourists who learn to sail in Garda return home with wonderful memories to cherish and the Centomiglia to look forward to: the most important nautical regatta, held every September in the waters of Lake Garda.
MYTH & SPEED
Unforgettable experiences and adrenaline on the lake
VINTAGE & GLAMOUR
Why not rent a vintage car and spend your holiday driving up and down the Gardesana in a gleaming spider, coupé or elegant vintage sedan?
James Bond has done it, classic car enthusiasts do it, as do participants in the historic Mille Miglia and glamorous tourists. Experience the thrill in Garda.
The Kartodrome hosts international races, but there is fun to be had for aspiring champions, too, who can rent a kart and take driving lessons.
MYTH AND SPEED
Eighty-six years ago, Francesco
Agello took off from Garda to set the world speed record for seaplanes. At the end of the 19th century Montichiari hosted an international automobile circuit. Garda’s history is intertwined with the history of speed, a long-held passion of the poet and writer Gabriele D’annunzio. Visit the Vittoriale and the Museo dell’Automobile.
MUSCLE
The Trap Concaverde is the realm of shooting. A modern, world-class facility where enthusiasts flock to discover a sport that challenges even the most skilled.
Garda is the home of special mountain paths called “sky trails” or “camminate del cielo”. The Upper Garda hosts events where champions put their technique and stamina to the test. Families, friends, and groups of young athletes all tackle these trails (at different paces). The enchanting landscape is well worth the effort.
