Holidays in the European capital of climbing – main image

Do you want to spend an unforgettable holiday with outdoor sports? Do you want to have a lake and mountains at your fingertips? The campsites on Lake Garda are ideal for those wishing to spend an active holiday in the outdoor sports capital of Europe. The town of Arco, the birthplace of the painter Giovanni Segantini and the aviation pioneer Giovanni Battista Caproni, is situated on the northern shore of Lake Garda. Over time, due to the clean air, mild climate and Mediterranean gardens, the town has become a famous spa and vacation spot. Its symbol is a rocky slope with the ruins of a magnificent medieval castle situated at an altitude of 273 m. There are paths surrounded by olive trees, which take about 20 minutes to walk to the ruins.

The surrounding cliffs are a true paradise for climbers and rock climbing enthusiasts from all over the world. This is why - and also thanks to the famous Rock Master festival - Arco is considered the European capital of climbing. There are countless climbing routes with different levels of difficulty and multi-pitch routes, as well as rocks in Prabi, where you can practice bouldering (800m from the Zoo campsite). But that's not all - there are also several dozen mountain bike and trekking paths in the Alto Garda region. On the lake, you can practice windsurfing, sailing and kite surfing.

Camping Zoo is surrounded by breathtaking nature

Garda from the north and south
Lombardy, one of the richest regions in Europe, has plenty of tourist attractions. The pearl of this milk and honey (although it would be more appropriate here: wine and olive oil) of the flowing region of Italy is Garda, the largest and cleanest lake in the country. Due to the mild climate, it is surrounded by lush Mediterranean vegetation, and the fauna living in its waters is equally rich. In the past, the air around the lake smelled of citrus - numerous oranges were built here. If you dare to try to rank tourists visiting Garda, you can say that the southern shores are chosen by amateurs of blissful rest, relaxation in thermal baths, and always young at heart, who love having fun in amusement parks. In turn, the north of the lake is the region of water sports enthusiasts, with particular emphasis on surfers.
