ヴァルヴェスティーノ湖周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ7

On the right day the traffic is light and easy to travel. Stunning landscapes!!

Super beautifully situated lake!

Beautiful road, partly newly asphalted. Lots of motorcycle traffic on weekends.

The suggestive lake of Valvestino, with its enchanting inlets and imposing overhanging rocks, offers a spectacle of rare beauty. The winding road that runs through it is a true paradise for summer motorcyclists and offers, in the remaining months of the year, the possibility of peacefully enjoying the solitude of an extraordinary landscape. Passing Lake Idro and heading towards Capovalle, the first traces of Lake Valvestino appear, captivating with the color of the water, intensely blue in summer and enveloping blue in winter. The shadows of the surrounding mountains create suggestive reflections, giving the landscape an atmosphere of extraordinary beauty. This artificial basin, regulated by the imposing Ponte Cola dam on the Toscolano stream, offers scenery that evokes the Norwegian fjords. Lake Valvestino thus becomes a place of authentic natural beauty, far from the chaos of the city, ideal for those seeking unforgettable visual and sensorial experiences.

Located in the municipality of Gargnano (BS), the Ponte Cola dam blocks the waters of the Toscolano stream, a tributary of Lake Garda, creating Lake Valvestino, named after the valley of the same name. The barrier is an imposing "domed" concrete structure built in the two-year period 1960 - 1962 which, thanks to its 122 meters of height and its development of 282.45 meters at the crown, creates a reservoir of 52 million cubic meters of water used for the production of electricity.

Beautiful stretch that runs alongside the artificial lake of Valvestino. Coming from Gargnano you will find the dam wall, you go along the whole lake crossing two bridges until you reach the stream called Toscolano which feeds the lake. Halfway between the two bridges you can still see the old customs which in some periods is totally uncovered.

main point of my tour today, going up from the lake of idro is really worth it, you can enjoy all the splendid landscape. Be careful of the wind, which on the main bridge, could be felt particularly

Beautiful passport. Easily manageable from Lake Garda because it is a bit flatter and more even. Departure direction Idrosee very steep with tight switchbacks. Consistently great views.
