From Munich on to Lake Garda
After arriving in Munich on the Urlaubs-Express, it’s only about 370 kilometers to Lake Garda—nestled among towering mountains, Mediterranean landscapes, and the Italian way of life. Small lakeside towns, lemon groves, beaches, and historic old towns characterize the region surrounding the lake.
From Munich, the journey continues across the Alps directly toward Lake Garda—whether for a few relaxing days by the water, a tour through the mountains, or an evening in one of the lively old towns.
Four Special Destinations for Your Stay on Lake Garda
Malcesine
Between the Lake and Monte Baldo
Narrow alleys, small squares, and the imposing Scaliger Castle: Malcesine is one of the most beautiful towns on Lake Garda—and the cable car takes you straight up to Monte Baldo.
Limone sul Garda
Lemons & Dolce Vita
Limone lies right between steep mountains and the lake. Old lemon groves, winding alleys, and the long lakeside promenade create a true Lake Garda atmosphere.
Sirmione
A Peninsula Steeped in History
The historic center of Sirmione juts far out into Lake Garda. The Scaliger Castle, narrow alleys, cafés, and the famous Catullus Caves make this town truly special.
Monte Baldo
High above Lake Garda
See Lake Garda from above: Monte Baldo offers beautiful hiking trails and breathtaking views across the lake and deep into the Italian mountains.
