Track types
Safety information
This is an easy route suitable for everyone, but it should always be traveled with caution: the route is exposed to the sun and can be challenging on windy days.The bike and pedestrian path currently ends at the border between Lombardy and Trentino: it is not recommended to continue beyond this point on the state highway, which is very busy and lacks safety measures for cyclists.
Tips and suggestions
It's ideal at sunset, when the colors of the lake and the mountains come alive. During peak season, it's best to choose times when it's less crowded.Roadbook
The first part of the trail, which is well-marked throughout, winds through Limone’s lakeside and historic district, taking in its charming shops and cafés, the Tourism Museum, the old harbor, the small church of San Rocco, and the lemon groves and olive groves.
After crossing the Sé stream, the path continues along Via Nova on a beautiful cobblestone route that descends once again toward the lake’s surface, then proceeds along Via Reamol to climb a few meters higher.
At the end of the short climb, the pedestrian path crosses the Gardesana Road and continues northward alongside it on a dedicated path. This is where the most spectacular part of the route begins, offering the most expansive views along the suspended walkways, the gentle caress of the wind, and the pleasure of silence thanks to the isolation from the road running through the tunnel.
Once you reach the end of the bike and pedestrian path, return along the same route.
