From Riva del Garda to Salò - 3 Sanctuaries and Croce di Salò

Lake Garda and the hills of Salò: a journey between beauty and spirituality.
With this trek we invite you to discover the fascinating hills of Salò.
Did you know that there is an itinerary that takes you to discover three sanctuaries near Salò?
This circular route, which can be covered entirely on foot in about 5 hours, is perfect for those who have a bit of training and offers two spectacular panoramic points over Lake Garda: the Corna and the Croce di Salò.
The walk of the Three Churches of Salò combines the pleasure of walking along the lake with the discovery of important historical works. The three main sanctuaries in the area are: San Bartolomeo, the Madonna del Buon Consiglio and the Madonna del Rio.
For a complete adventure, we recommend combining the outward boat crossing with the return trip by bus, just like we did. Starting from Riva del Garda by boat, we were able to admire the beauty of the various villages overlooking the Benaco: from Limone sul Garda to Malcesine, from Gargnano to Maderno, up to Gardone and Salò. The view from the lake is simply fantastic!
