With more than 7,000 inhabitants, Bardolino is one of the most important towns on Lake Garda.
Located on the Veneto shore of Lake Garda, it is a popular destination for many tourists who experience it in all seasons and have made it their summer home.
Bardolino is easily accessible by the main means of transport and is in the midst of the attractions that the lake offers on this shore. The numerous theme parks are only 5-6 km away, the wide hills behind where one can take long walks or bike rides, or Monte Baldo, which, at over 2000 metres high, is the highest peak on the entire lake.
In short, a perfect place and at the centre of all the attractions of the lake.
Overlooking the beautiful lakefront is palazzo Gelmetti, the current town hall, and near the harbour is the 16th-century loggia Rambaldi.
Next to it stands palazzo Guerrieri Rizzardi, with a garden stretching out towards the lake, while villa Bottagisio is at the end of the lakefront.
In the hills, at Cortelline, the 13th-century church of San Vito is worth a visit. Bardolino has two hamlets: Calmasino, in the hills, and Cisano, on the lake, with its parish church of Santa Maria, which preserves the façade and apse of the ancient Romanesque church.
