We set off from Desenzano del Garda, riding along quiet country roads and panoramic trails surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and rolling moraine hills.
Passing the impressive Risorgimento Tower in San Martino della Battaglia, we continue through Pozzolengo and Monzambano, crossing the heart of the Lugana wine region, a perfect backdrop for a relaxed, scenic ride.
Before reaching Borghetto sul Mincio, we follow the Mincio River cycling path, one of the most picturesque stretches of the tour.
This flat, nature-filled route winds alongside the river, passing historic mills and ancient stone bridges – a paradise for nature lovers and photographers.
Arriving in Borghetto, one of Italy’s most beautiful villages, we switch from pedals to aprons for a hands-on Italian cooking class. Learn to make the famous “Tortellini di Valeggio” – known as “Nidi d’Amore” – with the guidance of local chefs, followed by a relaxed, convivial lunch to taste the dishes you just created.
After lunch, we take a short stroll through Borghetto to admire its medieval bridges and charming watermills, before hopping back on our e-bikes for a final leg to Castellaro Lagusello, a hidden gem overlooking a heart-shaped lake.
Our tour ends as we return to Desenzano, riding through quiet, nature-filled back roads for a peaceful finish to this unique Lake Garda experience.
