The new Garda bike path
Il 15 giugno è stato ufficialmente inaugurato un nuovo, spettacolare tratto di pista ciclo-pedonale che va ad arricchire l'offerta outdoor del Garda Trentino. Sebbene esistesse già un percorso che univa Arco a Torbole, la provincia ha deciso di implementare ulteriormente questo asse creando un collegamento diretto e mozzafiato tra Nago e Arco, regalando a ciclisti e pedoni un itinerario panoramico senza precedenti.
Arco – Torbole – Nago Bike Path
Arco and the Banks of the Sarca River The itinerary comes to life in Arco, specifically from the Caneve parking lot. From here, you immediately immerse yourself in nature by following the comfortable cycle path that runs alongside the Sarca River. It is a relaxing and flat stretch that gently accompanies cyclists towards the shores of the lake, surrounded by the green of the valley.
The old Ponale track
This route embodies the contrast between two worlds: it begins in the alpine quiet of the Ledro Valley and descends progressively toward the monumental openness of Lake Garda. The Ponale Path is a journey of history, vertigo, and wonder, where every kilometer reveals a masterpiece of engineering carved into the living rock.

The Echoes of the Stadium: Riva del Garda’s Forgotten Giro Finish
While Riva del Garda hosted the Giro multiple times—including a legendary sprint won by Giuseppe Olmo in 1936 and a modern powerhouse finish by Urs Freuler in 1984—it was Stage 19 of the 1954 Giro d'Italia (San Martino di Castrozza to Riva del Garda, 159 km) that captured the true romance of the stadium arrival.
The race was chaotic, dictated by fierce tactical rivalries and changing weather. As the riders descended from the high peaks toward the Mediterranean microclimate of Lake Garda, the speed became electric.
Monte Bondone

The Tour of Italy in Garda Trentino
Garda Trentino—which includes Riva del Garda, Torbole, and Arco—is a classic and recurring location for the Giro d'Italia. Because it acts as a natural transit point between Lombardy and Trentino, the area is frequently featured on the race route, having hosted both the start and finish lines for various stages over the years.
