À vélo de Peschiera del Garda à Valeggio sul Mincio

Set off from the lively lakeside town of Peschiera del Garda, famous for its UNESCO-listed fortress and picturesque canals at the southern tip of Lake Garda. This relaxed 19.5 km ride follows mostly smooth, paved cycleways (so great for pretty much any bike), winding through the peaceful Mincio River valley. You’ll pedal alongside the scenic Mincio River for much of the route, often under the shade of willows and poplars, while passing the odd vineyard and countryside villa.

It’s a mostly gentle ride with a few rolling hills (just enough to feel the breeze!), and the traffic is minimal, thanks to dedicated cycleways and quiet roads. As you roll into your destination, Valeggio sul Mincio, reward yourself with a stroll through the medieval town’s charming streets. Don’t miss the legendary tortellini, and if you have time, check out the scenic Ponte Visconteo and enchanting Parco Sigurtà gardens. Perfect for a few hours of easy pedaling with plenty of local flavor.
