An Autumn Holiday at Lake Garda

Mild temperatures and sporting events

In September, late summer weather at Lake Garda and the lake is wonderfully calm. Especially at our eastern shore, the sun still sends warm rays in the evening, while at the western shore many places are already covered by the shadow of the mountains behind. In the vineyards around Bardolino, Garda and Lazise, the winegrowers harvest grapes for Bardolino and Bianco di Custoza. In October the temperatures are excellent for hiking and strolling. Perhaps your tours will take you past old olive trees harvested by hand. Or to the bright yellow lemon gardens at Limone. You can also take a guided tour of the Limonaia del Castel – above the old center of Limone – where you can also see mandarins, bitter oranges, clementines and kumquats.

Autumn is also a popular month for sports enthusiasts to visit Lake Garda. Thousands of people compete in sporting events such as the Lake Garda Marathon in Torbole, the Garda Trentino Half Marathon 21K in Arco and the La 10 Triathlon in Bardolino. A sea of sailboats glides over the water at this time of year when the sailing regattas "Fragilia Cup", "Torboli Trophy", "29er Eurocup" and "Halloween Cup" take place. And even in November, when the sun shines during the day, surfers still indulge their passion on Lake Garda.
