This ride takes you along the shores of Italy’s largest lake. It starts in the most northern town of Riva del Garda and takes you down along the eastern coast. There is no shortage of lake views on this ride. And no shortage of things to look at. Lots of activities take place on and along the lake. You will see windsurfers, beachgoers, cyclists, and even paragliders. Lake Garda is a popular holiday destination, so it is a very busy place so expect lots of cars on the road. The ride ends in front of the ferry terminal in Torri del Benaco. Lake Garda is an ancient moraine valley carved by ancient glaciers. The northern part of the lake is particularly beautiful and is surrounded by impressive mountains.

Wow..I love italy.I have a lot of videos of italy..Big like my friend I support you 👍+🔔🔔
It would have been more enjoyable if they had used the lakeside cycle path where possible . also not broken a few rules of the road while filming it , it's the journey not how fast you get to the end 🚵♂️🚴♂️🚴♀️🚵♀️🏁 apart from that nice video
From the begining to the end I enjoyed it. Thank you, Mr Bike the World.
Great ride. Awesome views of the lake.
Danke.
You guys ROCK!!!
Just want to say a big thank you, I suffer from mental health issues after a violent attack and do not leave home much and my weight had ballooned. With the help of your videos I have lost over 3 stones (19.5 kg) on my exercise bike and my confidence has grown. I am now thinking of getting a real bike and venture out more. Thank you so much, Your videos are transforming my life and I hope others too.
Please add music to your videos like others
I used my elite suito trainer for the first time ,as it is getting colder in Switzerland. With the big TV screen i felt like being there. Thanks for this long and beautifull video.
The time on the bike is much more enjoyable.
Amazing ride. I used the film for my spinning intense session (130bpm avg HR). But traffic was annoying, it ruined somehow the experience. Maybe you should film on Sundays in early morning when traffic is rare. 😊👍 Just an opinion. Don't hate me. 🙂🤗
many thanks for this wonderful and relaxing exercise video- and thank you for leaving the original sound intact, it really makes the experience complete.
Another great ride. I used this for a recovery ride. On to the hills tomorrow. Thanks again and take care, Al
What an amazing ride like it so much downloaded the 4k version for indoor cycle training would love to see some more of the same of these italian lake rides!
Hmmm Got to ask …. This is definitely a cyle ride but was this ride filmed by a normal road bike or an e-bike an how is it so stable at eye level?
Wonderful ride – many thanks for sharing.
From the begining to the end I enjoyed it. Thank you,
