Christmas Markets on Lake Garda

A December getaway between events, towns, and markets in a 4-star hotel in Riva del Garda

The days are getting shorter, but Riva del Garda lights up with magic.

Just a few minutes from the Locanda Restel de Fer, you will find the most enchanting Christmas markets in Trentino.
The Mercatino di Gusto in Gusto, the first Trentino Christmas market dedicated exclusively to food and wine and typical products.

Here you can walk among the traditional wooden huts and taste the typical recipes of Garda and Trentino Alto-Adige, such as stuffed pretzels, polenta and goulash, canederli, and many desserts, first of all the apple strudel.

All paired with mulled wine, hot chocolate, and the must-have Trento DOC sparkling wine.

Don't forget to visit the surrounding area of Riva and discover all the other markets, such as those in:

Arco: the old town lights up, around 40 stalls of crafts and food, evening events, and a fairy-tale atmosphere.
Canale di Tenno: a medieval village suspended in time, where narrow lanes host markets on Advent weekends.
Rango: an authentic market in the cellars, alleys, and rural spaces of the village.

Book a magical vacation in our 4-star hotel in Riva del Garda, and discover all the events and shows scheduled until January 6!
