In Borghetto there are still the historic buildings of the water mills that operated here. Beautifully restored, they now house hotels and restaurants. The area can get quite busy, especially on weekends, as it is a popular excursion destination.

The route faithfully follows the banks of the Mincio River, Lake Garda's only outlet. It also closely follows the border between the provinces of Verona and Mantua, thus between Veneto and Lombardy.
It's a very peaceful tour, rich in water and canals beyond the Mincio, with no significant elevation gain and passing through charming villages and green countryside nestled in …

September 19, 2024,Tour zum schönsten Dorf am Gardasee 🇮🇹🤩😍😍

Today we went along the Mincio to Borghetto, a really beautiful village. Here you can find the legendary love knots, special tortellini, the "Nodo d'amore", which are very tasty. The well-preserved Scaliger Castle with its typical battlements, which is located on a hill, is particularly worth seeing. Borghetto is definitely worth a visit👍😍😍

May 31, 2024,#44-24 🇮🇹 Borghetto / Mincio

After 12 hours of continuous rain, we used the day today in not too warm temperatures to cycle to Borghetto. Unfortunately, there are currently two construction sites, so you can't drive over the dam on the Mincio (diversion via Mozambano) and have to use a side road between Peschiera and the dam. Otherwise everything is wonderful.
