Christmas at Lake Garda

You should not miss

Although Lake Garda is a popular holiday destination in the warmer months, the area also has plenty to offer in winter and especially at Christmas time. An exceptional atmosphere wraps around the lake and its picturesque villages.

More and more people are discovering Lake Garda as a special winter resort. The ski resorts on Monte Baldo and in the surrounding area surprise with well-groomed slopes and a unique view. Directly on the shore, there’s a wonderfully quiet scene, which is perfect to get in the mood for a contemplative Christmas.

In many villages, there are Christmas events such as concerts or nativity scenes, and now Christmas markets also belong to the holiday season at Lake Garda. In addition to festive lighting, there is wonderfully scented gingerbread, a warming cup of mulled wine and lots of typical products and dishes from the region.

As the lake is usually mild in winter, you can take long walks on the promenades and discover in peace the picturesque, festively decorated centres of the historic villages and towns of Lake Garda.

Come to Lake Garda at Christmas time and enjoy the magical atmosphere!
