Cycling day trip from Malcesine to Torbole sul Garda

Kick off your ride from the charming town of Malcesine, beautifully nestled on the eastern shore of Lake Garda. Known for its medieval castle and stunning views over the lake, Malcesine is the perfect starting point for a scenic cycling adventure.

Your journey stretches about 98 kilometers through some seriously breathtaking landscapes. You'll be climbing a total of about 1,751 meters, so make sure those legs are ready! But don’t worry, there's a good balance of ascents and descents, and a lot of it is on smooth asphalt, with close to half the distance on dedicated cycleways and quiet roads.

Along the way, you’ll experience the serene beauty of the Garda landscape, with the sparkling lake often in view, dramatic mountainous backdrops, and quaint Italian villages to roll through. Make a note to take breaks and snap some photos because this route is a visual treat.

Finally, you'll glide into the vibrant little town of Torbole sul Garda. Known for its windsurfing scene, it’s a lively place to relax post-ride. Maybe treat yourself to some local gelato or a refreshing dip in the lake to celebrate the kilometers conquered. Enjoy the ride and the happy vibes of the Garda region!
