This tourist area, situated in the central southern part of Trentino, is known for the beauty of its landscapes that offer picturesque scenery, where vegetation, sky and water merge in harmony. The Garda Trentino area, in particular, is the best possible place for enjoying the charms of Lake Garda, as the rocky cliffs and Mediterranean atmosphere combine to provide a natural setting of rare beauty. Between the River Chiese and Garda, another little pearl of Trentino can be found – the Ledro Valley. It is noted for its small lake, with dazzlingly clear water, and the Ledro Valley is the epitome of peace, quiet and typical Trentino hospitality. Amongst the more important places in this area, there is: Riva del Garda, a congress destination ‘par excellence;’ Molina di Ledro, famous for its houses on stilts, and Arco, noted for its beautiful castle.
