Garda Gravel Weekend

GRAVEL BIKE HOLIDAY IN SMALL GROUP

From 275 €/person
16–18 July 2021 Medium–Challenging

Gentle moraine hills and dirt roads

The moraine hills that surround Lake Garda are modest hills crossed by fascinating dirt roads, a dream for every gravel bike lover. This weekend includes two routes that explore the best of the hills, made of villages dominated by medieval castles, large corn fields and vineyards, and hilltops from where to enjoy the sweet views of Lake Garda. Eastern Lake Garda and its solitary dirt roads that cross the rolling hills are the destination of the first day on the gravel bike, while during the second day we explore the hills of Custoza wine region, Southern Lake Garda and its historic villages. We are based in a farmhouse in the hills with excellent organic cuisine, because even the most indomitable gravel spirit needs to be pampered at the end of the day.

  • HIGHLIGHTS OF THE TOUR
  • The solitary dirt roads of the moraine hills
  • Ancient villages and medieval castles
  • A dip in Lake Garda
  • A farmhouse immersed in the countryside

Program

Individual arrival in Ponti sul Mincio.

Bike fitting (if rental included).

Dinner and overnight at the farmhouse Bioagriturismo Vojon.

The itinerary approaches the moraine hills of the Terre del Custoza following secondary roads in the countryside and pleasant dirt roads. While we pedal on roads surrounded by vineyards and ancient olive groves, the shining Lake Garda begins to peek out from the modest hills that surround it.

After a pleasant gravel style descent, we finally arrive by the shores of the lake near the beautiful village of Garda and we follow the coast to Bardolino: it is impossible to resist a refreshing dip!

We go back the farmhouse cycling on country roads among the hills that lead up to Peschiera del Garda and finally following the course of the Mincio river.

Dinner and overnight at Bioagriturismo Vojon.

The route explores the hills of Southern Lake Garda, where enchanting medieval villages arise between rolling green hills. The itinerary follows the course of the Mincio river and its canals and then heads towards the hills along slightly undulated roads that often turn into fascinating solitary dirt roads. After crossing Volta Mantovana and Cavriana, we admire the view from the top of Solferino (Orange Flag village TCI), dominated by the Rocca, and we reach the pretty historic center of Castiglione delle Stiviere. We cross the large cultivated fields until the farmhouse: there we can still enjoy a refreshing swim in the pool!
