Beginning soon, we'll set out on a journey of discovery at one of the most beautiful lakes in northern Italy: Lago di Garda. From Sirmione to Riva del Garda, Gardone Riviera to Malcesine, there is a distinct flavor and style uniquely associated with Lake Garda. Together, we'll taste every characteristic of Lake Garda from its serene pebbly shores to quiet mountain villages. We'll share in the lives of the Italian families that call Lake Garda home. Along the way, we'll visit markets, restaurants, and shops. We'll share recipes, gardening tips, and study the traditions and diversities that make Lake Garda unique. A "View Calendar" will keep us up-to-date on all the latest events.
