Malcesine
A picturesque town on Lake Garda's eastern shore, famous for its medieval castle, charming harbor, and cable car to Monte Baldo.
Tips from the community
Majestic Malcesine looks like it was planned by an Italian haute couture designer. Like nimble threads, the old town’s streets wiggle and weave through piazzas and under arches. Overhead, the Scaliger Castle of Malcesine bolts upright with its crenulated tower. You can climb it for a handful of euros and get rolling views of the pebble beaches that run northwards along Lake Garda. Don’t worry if you get lost in the main heart of Malcesine – that’s half the fun. It’s worth getting bearings for lunch though, because little La Cambusa serves unforgettable fresh pastas and local wines with the most friendly service.
