Monte Baldo Group

The Monte Baldo group is a more than 2,000 m high and 37 km long mountain massif between the Val d'Adige and the eastern bank of Lake Garda. Its rich and varied vegetation includes also some botanic rarities. The uniqueness of the flora is the result of the last glaciation when the Monte Baldo was a so-called "nunatak", an inuit word describing a mountain peak which stood out of the ice cap and was therefore completely isolated from the surrounding peaks. In 1972 the Riserva botanica di Bes-Corna Piana, a nature reserve, was opened near Monte Baldo.

The main peaks of the Monte Baldo massif include Monte Altissimo di Nago, the Cima del Longino, the Cima delle Pozzette, the Cima Valdritta and the Punta Telegrafo.

The Monte Baldo group is also a particularly appreciated destination by sports lovers, such as mountain-bikers, paragliders and hikers. This massif is also popular for its stunning beauty and therefore referred to as "the most beautiful terrace of Lake Garda". Here, you can admire an unforgettable view of the lake and the Prealpi Venete, the Dolomites and the Pianura Padana.
