Full description
You can't sail with us.
Indeed you can, but hurry up because places on board this sailing boat are very limited! On this half-day sailing trip, in fact, it will be just you, the skipper and a small group of a maximum of 4 people.
An experience that will lead you to discover the secrets of sailing and those of Italy's largest lake!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Riva del Garda (TN). Here we will meet our skipper who will welcome us on board the sailing boat.
Having gathered the small group of participants, we will leave the historic harbour of San Nicolò to start sailing towards the spectacular Cascate del Ponale waterfalls, where nature shows its wildest face.
Taking advantage of the favourable wind, we will descend southwards towards Limone sul Garda. We will sail past the iconic yellow lemon houses, admiring this centuries-old village directly from the water. During navigation, if we wish, the skipper will teach us the basics of sailing, involving us in manoeuvres to make us feel an integral part of the crew in this adventure among the waves.
Afterwards, we will hoist the sails again to head towards the eastern shore of the lake. Here the view will be captured by the majestic Malcesine Castle, which dominates the landscape with its imposing architecture. If weather conditions permit, we can agree with the skipper on a stop for a swim.
On the return route, we will let the wind carry us along the beaches of Navene and Torbole. This will be the perfect time to take unique photos and enjoy a toast with a glass of prosecco in the peace and quiet of the lake, before heading back to the starting point.
The activity will last about 4 hours in total.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for all without age limits; children under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Children aged 0 to 2 years participate free of charge.
