The last time I had taken the ferry boat from the very south of the Garda Lake to the north, was 36 years ago ! This time I took the opportunity to take it again, from Garda to Torbole where we stayed.
The plan of my "cruise"
My boat. It also takes cars
Arriving in Garda I had two hours to walk in the little city before I could take the boat back
Little streets the shops just started to open, it was around before 10 am
A view from the port
I walked along the lake
A memorial for all those who died in the lake.
Then I took my boat back.
Tori was the first stop
Then came Casteletto
Brenzone
and to my big surprise without knowing it, I had taken a picture from the hotel I stayed with my parents in 1963 when I was 20 ! Long time ago, but nice souvenirs. It had been the first time I was in Italy, in Malcesine
The port of Malcesine
and its castle. Malcesine is also called "The Pearl of the Garda Lake"
On the other side of the Lake we stopped in
Limone, sticked to the mountains like a nest
and finally I arrived in Torbole, my final destination, where we spent our holidays
If you don't get sea sick, you can do this little cruise with me.
More about the Garda Lake is here in my post 3 years ago.

It just looks so beautiful, Gattina. I must remember about Garda Lake and take that cruise myself. Thank you so much for the photos.
Great shots of the lake. Old memories of the previous trip must have been rushing in as you took this trip.
Fantastic shots. Loved the landscape of the various places that are covered along the cruise. I had a wonderful virtual tour of the cruise.
Oh, wow! What atmosphere!
This is an interesting place. A virtual tour indeed! So nice to capture places where there are fond memories. Love the narrow streets, very quaint.
