Lake Garda, with its strong southern wind, the “Ora”, is not only the perfect location for surfers and sailors; it  is also a great area for motorbikers!

Thanks to it's wonderful colours, it's stony beaches and the reflections of the beautiful surrounding villages in it's water, Lake Garda is definitely one of the most stunning places in northern Italy. A location where time seems to have stopped.

What can make you feel even more free? For sure riding your motorbike around the Lake!

After having enjoyed our Wonderbreakfast it’s to time to set off: helmet done up tight, rucksack on your shoulder and off you go!

The first recommendation is to ride the Lake clockwise, to make the most of the morning sun on the top of Monte Baldo and of the stunning sunset on the western coast in the afternoon.

The first stop has to be Tignale, perfect spot to take some scenic selfies, and afterwards take the road towards Salò.

After visiting the town center, off you go towards Sirmione, where it’s finally time to have some lunch on the lakeside and enjoy the stunning view.

The journey continues along the “Strada Statale Gardesana” 249 towards Malcesine. 70 km of pure fun and easy riding.

Not long to go now! Only a few kms left to complete the 160 km trip round the lake and finally you're back at the Hotel Santoni Freelosophy.

Your biking day is over, it’s time to leave your bike in the hotels motorbike parking area and to free yourself of all that heavy gear. Time to relax! 

The route around the lake is for sure one of the most stunning ones, thanks to its continuous amazing views. Consequently there is often lots of traffic, especially during high season and at weekends. This route is recommended during spring or at the end of the summer.

If your passion for riding never ends the area offers lots of routes to try out and enjoy.
