Arco

The small town of Arco is located at the north end of Lake Garda and surrounded by large rock chains and up to 2000 meter high mountains. During the day, mountain loving people wander through the small streets, well equipped with new mountain bikes or heavy ropes and karabiners.
Any sportsmen, with or without his family, will find best conditions: well equipped limestone walls with more than 2000 routes in all difficulties for sport climbing and multi pitch routs; Vie ferrate for every taste, steep canyons for practising canyoning, panoramic mountains for graceful hikes and more challenging trekkings and traverses; tough trails for mountain bikers and quiet asphalt roads for race bikers; ideal weather conditions for paragliding; nice paths for jogging or Nordic Walking. Not to forget all the water sport possibilities, like surfing and sailing that offers the nearby Lake Garda.

For those who forgot their equipment or who like to supplement their gear, the specialized sport shops offer a wide range of products and special offers that sometimes seduce into buying too much.


In the evening, while the surfers in Torbole are celebrating the end of the day with beer and music in some bar, the guests of Arco are strolling around the historic centre, having an ice cream at Marcos or a nice glass of red wine at Pios’.

Arco is worth visiting in all seasons, thanks to its mild climate. Even during the wintertime, you will see climbers passing their rope into carabineers on wind protected rock walls. Others who come to relax and get benefit from the tranquillity, have a glass of hot wine beneath some palm trees and enjoy the view on the snow covered Monte Stivo, that others climb with skis or snowshoes.

Arco is as well the base for the Friends of Arco as an ideal starting point for tasting the flavour of nature adventure – in Trentino, the Dolomites and much more…… Friends of Arco can help you organising your holidays here in Arco and nearby.
