Experiences on Lake Garda: discover what to do and see

Let the rhythm of the lake guide you, Hour after Hour. Every experience is a different way of getting to know the lake and the mountains of Garda Trentino.

Discovering the surrounding area is about more than just admiring its beauty; it's about experiencing it with all your senses.

At Locanda Restel de Fer we have selected authentic experiences, tied to our land and its rhythms, which need to be booked directly at the Locanda to add that special touch to your stay. Some of these experiences are held directly at the Locanda, while others are hosted by small, local gems that embody the excellence of our region.

Lake Garda: what to do?
Take a look at our suggestions and choose how to improve your vacation!

A PICNIC AMONG THE OLIVE TREES

Imagine sitting under the olive trees, with a small table, two chairs, a basket full of delicacies, a bottle of wine, and two glasses ready for a toast. All this with Lake Garda stretching out before your eyes.

Just a few minutes from our Locanda, on Mount Brione, which separates Riva del Garda from Torbole, lies a corner of paradise. Among our terraces dotted with olive trees, you’ll find your own peaceful retreat.

Choose from a range of routes through the greenery, varying in length, that you can cover on foot or by bike in 20 to 45 minutes.

Here's what awaits you:

  • A basket filled with delicacies prepared with love by our chef.
  • A bottle of Trentino wine (white, red, or sparkling), blending tradition and innovation, recommended by Marco, our host, based on your preferences.
  • A bottle of cold water to refresh you and help you enjoy every moment.

Add a picnic to your stay* and treat yourself to this outdoor experience.
*Exclusive service for hotel guests.

Wine tasting in a cozy cellar with passionate explanations.
WINE TASTING
At our Locanda, we think every bottle holds a story, a landscape, and the passion of those who created it.

To celebrate flavour richness, we've come up with two tasting experiences, both designed for different levels of exploration and discovery.

Join us on a sensory journey where you can explore our region by delving into its roots, discovering its nuances, and savoring its finest offerings.

Choose your preferred itinerary; Marco, our local expert, will tailor it to your specific requests and needs.

1. Roots, Territory, and Evolution: The Local Aromatic Journey

Duration of the experience: 45 minutes / 1 hour
Cost per person: 30 euros
(minimum 2 people)

2. Selected Gems: Icons of Our Region

Where the land, the winemaker’s touch, and the region come together in the most harmonious way. We’ll take you on a journey through the history of local winemaking.

OLIVE OIL TASTING
Have you ever really tasted extra virgin olive oil, taking in its aromas and flavor nuances?
This experience is the perfect opportunity to explore the world of olive oil in a new and engaging way!

Led by Marco, an expert taster, you’ll get to learn some interesting facts: did you know that there are over 500 varieties of olives in Italy? And that acidity is one of the key factors in identifying a high-quality oil?

Through a comparative tasting of our extra virgin olive oil, Aurum Breuni, alongside other outstanding oils from Lake Garda and across Italy, you’ll learn to recognize aromas, flavors, and even the aftertaste that makes each oil unique.

Duration of the experience: 45 minutes / 1 hour
Cost per person: 25 euros 
(minimum 2 people)

Completely recommended, I promise you will love it. I stayed here this weekend with my wife and our 18 yr old son. We booked the Panoramic Suite and it was perfect for us. Such a lovely, comfortable room. Hospitality from the owners and staff was phenomenal. Breakfast was delicious. The owners' attention to detail is remarkable, nothing is overlooked. I would go back to Riva del Garda just to stay here. It was just so perfect.
