Getting Around Lake Garda: Transport and Logistics

Planning your trips is the key to a perfect holiday. Lake Garda offers several options for moving between the resorts on the three shores, allowing you to forget your car and enjoy the view. Thanks to Desenzano's central location, you will have access to all major means of transport.

By Boat: Navigation of the Lakes

The most impressive way to explore Lake Garda is certainly by water. Navigazione Laghi connects all the main villages on a daily basis:

• Boats and Hydrofoils: From Desenzano there are frequent trips to Sirmione, Bardolino, Lazise and Salò. Hydrofoils are faster, while boats allow you to enjoy the breeze on deck.
• Car ferry: If you need to move your car between the Brescia and Verona shores, there is a ferry service between Toscolano Maderno and Torri del Benaco.

By Train: Fast Connections

Desenzano del Garda boasts an important railway station on the Milan-Venice line:

• Regional Trains and Arrows: In a few minutes you can reach Peschiera del Garda, Brescia or Verona. Milan and Venice can be reached in about an hour, making day trips to major art cities possible.

By Bus and Bike

For inland and inland routes, you can count on:

• Regular buses: The Arriva (Brescia side) and ATV (Verona side) lines connect the villages extensively.
• Bicycle: Garda is increasingly bike-friendly. From Desenzano you can take panoramic routes to Sirmione or to the moraine hills.
