Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Mantoue à Peschiera del Garda

Looking for a beautiful and relaxed ride? This route takes you from the historic city of Mantova all the way north to the lakeside town of Peschiera del Garda—two gems of northern Italy!

Starting in Mantova, you’ll have a chance to soak up Renaissance architecture and the pretty views along the Mincio River. After rolling out, you’ll ride mainly on paved cycleways (it’s seriously bike-friendly here!), winding your way through peaceful countryside, charming villages, and loads of green scenery. There’s only a gentle ascent, so it’s perfect for a laid-back spin.

As you get closer to your destination, keep an eye out for the waters of Lake Garda shimmering in the distance. Peschiera del Garda awaits with its cool fortress town vibe, lively lakeside promenades, and a great place for gelato or a dip in the lake.

With over 90% of the ride on smooth surfaces, this is a classic Italian route that’s perfect for all levels. Buon viaggio!
