Description
Malcesine is one of the most popular holiday resorts on Lake Garda.
The town is located on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, just a few kilometers from the border to Trentino. Malcesine has been built around the Scaliger Castle and the historical Palazzo dei Capitani, maintaining its medieval townscape until today.
The geographical location of Malcesine overlooks the shore of Lake Garda and the slopes of Mount Baldo, lending itself to various sports such as sailing, waterskiing, windsurfing, tennis and miniature golf, but also to trekking, mountain biking and extreme sports like paragliding.
The new panoramic cable car connects the town of Malcesine to Monte Baldo. In the winter months, it allows easy access to the largest ski slopes of Monte Baldo, where a chairlift and four ski-lifts transport you to slopes for various degrees of ability.
