Tour for the more experienced paddler which takes you in the direction of the Trentino- Veneto border, past the Spiaggia delle Lucertole beach and as far as Corno di Bò, two spots for climbers.
When you reach the end of the northern shore from Purfina beach in the direction of Torbole, the tour continues southwards along the eastern shore of Lake Garda to Punta del Corno di Bò.
The Corno di Bò area is popular with climbers who can be spotted on the white limestone rock rising from the lake along the Gardesana road between Torbole and Malcesine. A great spectacle with a fantastic view from the SUP.
A little further on, on Spiaggia delle Lucertole beach, you can relax in the sun before paddling back towards Riva del Garda.
Author’s recommendation
Spiaggia delle Lucertole is well worth a stop, and on hot summer days you can take a refreshing dip in the lake.

- Maintain the safety distance from public transportation crafts, respect right of way rules and do not cross the course of motorboats to avoid accidents and fines.
