Lake Toblino and the connected Lake Santa Massenza, surrounded by mountains and vineyards, are located in the middle of the picturesque Valle dei Laghi – Valley of Lakes. It starts just outside the northern edge of the Garda and goes almost to Trento, the capital of the Trentino region. The valley is served by a panoramic car and bicycle trail, whose main attraction is Toblino Lake with a medieval castle on the island. How to visit this place, what is the legend of the castle, where to stay, where to eat in the restaurant, where to arrange a picnic, where to drink a great coffee on the terrace with a beautiful view? Come and see again the magical Trentino.<\/p>\n

There’s such a valley in northern Italy, where on a stretch of several kilometers you’ll find seven lakes, four castles, the largest rock landslide in the Alps – Marocche di Dro<\/a> – with dinosaur footprints and top-class vineyards, of which only – in this small area – produced is the unique Vino Santo<\/a>. This extraordinary place begins a bit behind the northern shores of Lake Garda<\/a> and is the perfect destination for one-day or half-day trips from Riva del Garda<\/a> and Torbole sul Garda<\/a>. Valle dei Laghi, or the Valley of Lakes, is very well presented on the above graphics. In the upper right corner you can see the northern ends of Lake Garda, further down there is Lake Cavedine<\/a>, Lake Toblino, Lake Santa Massenza, above Toblino is a small blue crumbling lake – Lake Lagolo, then Lake Terlago, and finally Lake Santo and Lake Lamar. Castles are Castello di Drena<\/a>, Castello Toblino (on the island), Castello Madruzzo and Castello Terlago.<\/p>\n

The entire Valley of the Lakes is at least two full days of sightseeing, so if you cannot afford it, go even to Lake Toblino. The route that leads through the Valley of Lakes is very picturesque and delights from the windscreen of the car. There’re vineyards on both sides of the road, and Marocche di Dro and Lake Cavedine can be seen without getting out of the car, if you only take the section from Dro to Pietramurata by selecting the circular and narrow road SP214, access from crossroads in Dro via SP84. Another solution for those who have a very tight schedule is to come to the Garda – or exit – this panoramic route through Toblino, instead of being more popular by Rovereto. Just leave the motorway in Trento and follow the signs for Garda \/ Arco. The tension increases with each kilometer driven. First, beautiful mountain views, later Lake Toblino, then vineyards and drive along the Sarca river, even later visible from a distance the castle in Arco, located on a high rock and suddenly Garda. I was followed this way for the first time to Riva and I’ll never forget it.<\/p>\n
