Summarized by Dina Mardiana

Lake Garda or Lago di Garda in Italian, is a playground for all ages which covers an immense of 370 km2. The lake is shaped like an isosceles triangle, and its broad southern end resembles an inland sea. It is also one of Europe�s prime windsurfing spots as it has one of Italy�s strings of lake.

It enjoys excellent wind conditions: the northerly peler can read speeds of 15 meters per second, while the southerly ora sweeps down in the early afternoon. Across from Gardone Riviera, a lake which narrows rapidly as the altitude climbs, a cable car glides from the windsurfer�s hang-out of Malcesine to Monte Baldo, where there is a wintertime skiing and a year-round mountain biking.

In the southwestern corner, Desenzano del Garda is known as the gateway to the lake, with good transport connections around the lake and beyond. In the center of the southern shore, on a sliver-like peninsula, is the village of Sirmione, in which you will find a castle at its entrance and a maze of Roman ruins on its headland.

The Lago di Garda Amusement Parks is the place to home dinosaurs, pirate ships, roller coasters and dolphinarium. It is located at the eastern shore of the lake, while to its north an aqua park and medieval shows are grouped inside the Caneva World.
