Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Riva del Garda à Vérone

Kick off your ride in stunning Riva del Garda, nestled at the tip of Lake Garda and hugged by the dramatic cliffs of Trentino. This lively lakeside town is famous for its crystal-clear waters and those classic Italian gelaterias—it’s the perfect starting line for your adventure.

The route rolls south through a mix of purpose-built cycleways and tranquil country roads, winding you through the picturesque valleys and orchards that sit in the shadow of the Dolomites. Expect some gentle climbs (about 900 meters in total ascent), but nothing too wild—just enough to work up an appetite for a mid-ride espresso as you pass through small villages with historic charm.

Almost 90% of your ride is on smooth pavement, and you’ll spend most of your time on bike-friendly paths. The journey ends in Verona, the romantic city of Romeo and Juliet, with its ancient Roman arena and vibrant piazzas. Ride in, grab a slice of pizza, and soak up the classic Veneto vibe—you’ve earned it after nearly 100 kilometers on the bike!
