School trips to Lake Garda
Lake Garda is the largest of the Italian lakes ideally located for exciting excursions being just 30 km from Verona, 100 km from Milan and 130 km from Venice. The more rugged northern shore is surrounded by the Dolomites and in some places steep cliffs drop straight into the lakeside.
The southern shore has a softer landscape with beaches, olive groves, lemon trees and vineyards. Boats ply the lake making it possible to explore by water rather than just by coach. There are pretty villages, theme parks, excellent markets, gardens and cultural centres all in close proximity making Lake Garda an excellent study trip destination.
