Walking Lake Garda and Iseo

Day walks in the Italian Lakes
Guidebook to 20 day walks around the majestic Italian lakes of Garda and Iseo. The routes, which range from leisurely strolls to more strenuous routes up panoramic peaks, offer something to suit all walkers. Invaluable practical information about public transport, accommodation and walking kit is included, together with a handy Italian glossary.

Lake Garda and Lake Iseo combine a mild year-round climate, dramatic mountain backdrops, historic villages, and well-waymarked trails that reward walkers with scenery far removed from the busy lakefronts. From easy lakeside strolls and historic military forts to panoramic peaks above Malcesine, these two lakes offer varied walking for all abilities.

Covering both lakes in a single compact volume, this guidebook by Gillian Price describes 20 graded day walks ranging from 5 to 13km (3 to 8 miles) and taking 2 to 5 hours. It pairs clear route descriptions with detailed information on accommodation and public transport to help you explore with confidence.

• The 20 walks are split between Lago di Garda and Lago d'Iseo, graded 1 to 3, covering everything from the Valle delle Cartiere and Strada del Ponale to five routes on Monte Baldo and the island of Monteisola
• Highlights include the cable car to Monte Baldo, Campione and its canyons, the Tremosine ancient stone stairway, Monte Brione's historic military forts, and Lovere on Lago d'Iseo
• Sketch maps are included for every walk alongside detailed information on accommodation and public transport, with bases in Malcesine, Riva del Garda, Limone, Gargnano, Iseo, and Lovere
• Background sections cover plants, flowers, wildlife, and food and drink, giving rich context for the lakeside villages, lemon orchards, and mountain landscapes on the trail
• Spring to autumn is best for most routes, with midsummer ideal for the Monte Baldo altitude walks and lower lakeside paths accessible in winter

From the canyons of Campione and the peaks of Monte Baldo to the island of Monteisola on Lago d'Iseo, this guidebook opens up the best walking on two of Italy's most beautiful lakes. Gillian Price's expert local knowledge makes it the ideal companion for every route.
