Step into your harness and explore Monte Colodri to reach high up over Lake Garda. Climb an exposed via ferrata, tackle some exciting sport climbing, and take in the atmosphere of the Alps.
- Peer out over Lake Garda at 300 m (980 ft) high
- Ascend along pale, jagged rocks of the Alps
- Enjoy sport climbing after the activity
- Descend through an olive tree grove
- Enjoy with the entire family
Monte Colodri peaks out over the tiny town of Arco, just north of Lake Garda, and the Sarca Valley. With a manageable route up to the top, this via ferrata welcomes beginners and even young explorers.
Scramble and climb up the rock face to reach the ruins of the Arco Castle, whose origins date back to before the Middle Ages. From this lookout, you can admire the wide Sarca Valley and the town of Arco below you and the vast Lake Garda stretching out beyond. This glacial lake sits peacefully in between towering Alpine mountains.
But the tour doesn't end with the views! Descend through olive groves of twisted trees and hike through isolated paths. Your guide leads you to another area of the mountain in order to enjoy some sport climbing along more rock walls.
This rugged mountain landscape of Monte Colodri creates an ideal trip for all types of adventure for people of all types of experience levels.
