Gargnano

 

 

Gargnano, midway up Lake Garda western shore, still has the feel of a real town - where people work at other jobs than the tourist trade - and so is one of those fine little places that one can actually settle in and gather one's thoughts.

 

 

The town tumbles down from the main road mid way up the slopes to the water's edge where on a narrow strip along the lake where the town's main buildings, many of which have stood their ground for centuries. crowd to the edge of the water. Unlike many other lakeside towns around Lake Garda and the other Lakes of the Lake District, there is no room for an uninterrupted promenade.  Still, there is plenty of access for those who want to dip their toes in the water, or enjoy recreational activities like fishing, boating, sail boarding, snorkeling and so on.
