Torbole sul Garda

The pleasant little town of Torbole lies on the north side of Lake Garda, about 3 km east of Riva del Garda, up the slopes of Monte Baldo and as a natural fishing village leaning on the Sacra river delta. The mild climate of the area has today made Torbole, with about 3,000 inhabitants, a popular tourist destination, especially for happy surfing enthusiasts and sailors enjoying the good winds on Lake Garda. The town has a good selection of shops mixed with bars, restaurants and a number of discos. The cosy harbour and 'La Vecchia Dogana', the town's old customs house, are sought-after places to enjoy the last rays of the sun.
