Limone and the western shore

Leaving Riva del Garda along the SS45bis, you trace 11 km of cliffside galleries carved in the 1930s, tight to dolomitic walls and the lake’s glassy surface. In about 20 minutes you reach Limone sul Garda, where 18th‑century lemon houses step up the slope behind stone colonnades. Around 2 pm the Ora wind fills in from the south, sharpening light along the waterfront walkway. Higher up, the Strada della Forra climbs through the Brasa gorge toward Tremosine, opening direct views to Malcesine and Monte Baldo at 2,218 m.

The plan stays flexible: hotel pick‑up in Riva del Garda, a Mercedes at your disposal, and stops adjusted on the fly. While your driver handles the road, you tour the Limonaia del Castèl ecomuseum, taste small‑batch limoncino, and stroll Via Reamol by the water. In Tremosine, your dedicated private chauffeur manages timing and access, then takes you to a lake‑fish lunch facing Malcesine, before an unhurried return via the same route or the scenic detour past Pregasina if late‑day light cooperates.
