Monte Baldo – sharp curves and Italian flair


Tour tip

The Monte-Baldo-Rundem, with its sharp curves and the best Italian flair, gives us a joie de vivre that is hardly thought possible.

One of the classics is the round over Monte Baldo on the east side of Lake Garda. Spectacular views, spectacular drive. As soon as the shore of the lake is left behind, the traffic clears. It will be particularly chic at the Brentonico-Avio junction: the height restriction and the very narrow route should keep mobile homes and many others away. And that puts you on the right side when it comes to panorama: At the Rifugio Bocca di Navene. The classic Lake Garda feeling is intoxicating on the eastern shore of the lake. Small detours into the mountains provide a thrill. Not only are the views amazing, the route is also amazing. Switchbacks of the tightest kind. Less experienced people can stay on the quayside. A wonderful delicacy awaits the others. End in Torri del Benaco on the lake shore.

route: 190 km / Travel time: 6-8 hours (and overnight stay)

The starting shot is given in San Zegno di Montagna ➤ Turn off the main road in the direction of Lumini. There on the SP29 to Caprino Veronese ➤ Before the church portal, turn left towards Spiazzi. Nice country road, wide curves ➤ In Spiazzi an inconspicuous fork, turn left towards Sacrario del Baldo (SP8 you) keep. The road becomes very narrow at first, then widens a little. Past quarry stone walls, uphill in several serpentines to a plateau and past the military cemetery.

Continue uphill in easy bends to the confluence with the SP8 ➤ Keep left towards Brentonico. Road a little further. In two hairpin bends to Passo Cavallo. Pretty wagging of bends, surprising combinations of bends, great views ➤ 7 km after Passo Cavallo ignore the junction from the right, continue straight ahead, narrow stretch, blind bends, slowly! ➤ 3 km after the junction, turn off to the left, cul-de-sac to the lookout point, four narrow hairpin bends, free parking. Walk to the viewpoint about 10 minutes. It’s easier a few meters further at the Rifugio Bocca die Navene. Best view from the small terrace. Coffee and cake included ➤ Next resting place 2.5 km later Rifugio Graziani.
