The north and south parts of the lake offer quite different experiences and therefore it really depends on what you want to do when you get there. The North part is very mountainous and steep with lots of more extreme sporting activities. The south is a lot flatter with gentle slopes, longer beaches and is better for just relaxing by the lake. Where the lake goes from the wider south part to the narrower north part is where the landscape becomes very mountainous.

Gazing across Lake Garda from the town of Desenzano on its southwest bank, the view is quite spectacular. With it's unique ecosystem thanks to the large lake and surrounding mountians and beautiful botanic gardens Lake Garda’s has more in common with southern Italy.
