| Lago di Garda | Intesting day trips from malcesine by car? Posted: Tue March 25, 2008 12:56 PM UTC
Hi everyone
I'm travelling to Malcesine for 10 days in May with my husband & 6 yr old daughter. We have plans to do the cable car, train to venice for the day from Peschiera, ferry trips on the lake most days, Gardaland. But we would really like to visit some places by car, that are easy to drive to in an hour or so from Malcesine. Are there any country parks, castles, nature reserves, historic towns etc that anyone can suggest. We can't really hike up mountains with a 6 yr old but don't mind short walks. Thanks |

Within an hour or so?
look at the VT guides of these places. I will assume you will see already the best places along the lake shore - Verona, of course - Mantua - Soave (on the road to vicenza) Walled town with a beautiful castle. - Montagnana (maybe just a little more than an hour, but a walled town worth a visit and probably interesting for your daughter, too... se my page on it) For nature, you already climb monte Baldo by cable car, but from Brenzone you can easily reach the abandoned village of Campo, or from Castelletto find a paved road climbing up the mountain more south. Take a look here for more natural links: http://www.parchiveneto.it/eng/parchi-veneto.php Ciao francesco

Thanks for the tips. The website link looks great, with great photos - I'll have a browse as soon as I can.
