Around Arco for couples: villages, beaches and drinks with a lake view
Garda Trentino is famous for active sports like climbing, hiking and cycling, but it's also the ideal destination to slow down and experience the area at a leisurely pace.
From historic villages, lakeside beaches and drinks with a view, the area around Arco offers many experiences perfect to spend a day with your significant other or with friends.
Here are some ideas to discover Garda Trentino at a slower pace.
Canale di Tenno: one of the most beautiful villages in Italy
A few kilometers from Arco you’ll find Canale di Tenno, a small medieval village considered one of the most beautiful in Italy.
Stone houses, narrow alleys, arches and secluded squares create an atmosphere suspended in time. Strolling here means discovering artisan workshops, small ateliers, and postcard-perfect views.
It's a perfect stop for a romantic stroll or a break between the lake and the mountains.
Pregasina: the secret viewpoint overlooking Lake Garda
Suspended between the mountains and the lake, Pregasina is one of the most scenic spots in the Upper Garda region.
This small village overlooks the lake, offering incredible views of the Lake Garda waters and the surrounding rocky cliffs.
Here, time seems to slow down: narrow streets, silence and views that invite you to stop and admire the landscape.
Secluded beaches on Lake Garda
Just a few minutes from Arco, you can reach some of the most beautiful beaches in the Upper Garda area.
The Spiaggia dei Sabbioni in Riva del Garda is one of the most popular, thanks to its large lawn and open view of the lake.
Further north, near Torbole sul Garda, there are quieter beaches, perfect to relax in the sun, read a book, or simply watch sailboats cross the lake.
Drinks with a lake view between Riva and Torbole
After a day exploring the villages and the lake, one of the most enjoyable moments is a sunset drink – and the lakeside promenades of Riva del Garda and Torbole are perfect to sit outside overlooking the water, enjoying the sunset with a glass of local wine or a spritz.
Picture this: the lake is bathed in golden light, the wind fills the sails, and the atmosphere is relaxed yet lively, just like your Lake Garda holiday.
The pleasure of experiencing Garda Trentino at a leisurely pace
