The water flows down through the rocks, creating a small, hidden corner—almost intimate. Here, you can pause, take off your shoes, and let the cool water run over your feet… and, if you wish, enjoy a refreshing swim. These are the simple moments that stay with you. And what makes it even more special is that you can share it with your dog, who finds just as much space, freedom, and fresh water here as we do.

Another walk that never fails to surprise is the one that leads down towards the lake, in the direction of the harbour. It’s not a path to be underestimated, but taken at a gentle pace and with a bit of care, it becomes part of the experience. It’s one of those walks where the landscape slowly changes: you begin in the woods and soon find yourself immersed in almost Mediterranean scenery, among ancient olive trees, intense scents, and breathtaking views over Lake Garda.

Arriving at the Limonaia Pra de la Fam always feels special. It’s like stepping into another time. The lemon houses tell a story of hard work, patience, and ingenuity. Walking among these terraces, with the lake right beside you, creates a feeling that is hard to put into words: it is beauty, but also the living memory of this land.

They are simple experiences, yet deeply restorative—those that truly help you switch off.

To fully enjoy all of this, there are a few essentials I recommend packing: hiking shoes, indispensable for our trails; comfortable clothing, along with a windproof jacket; a backpack with plenty of water, sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses.

And one small tip: upon your arrival, ask for a trail map.

Spring here is not just a season. It is a different way of experiencing time.
