It doesn't work very well to have this series of photos of paragliders at Monte Baldo on this platform where you'll be checking out photos on somewhat of a postage stamp size, but I like these photos too much not to do anything with. So here we go. 😉

Above the clouds and beyond the lake lies Monte Baldo, towering over the enchanting town of Malcesine on the shores of Lake Garda. 🌿🏞️✨

A panoramic cable car ride whisks you from medieval cobbled streets to alpine meadows in just minutes. From the top, breathtaking views stretch across the lake and into the distant Dolomites, a true meeting of earth, sky, and water.

Malcesine itself is a fairytale village with narrow alleys, vibrant flowers, and the majestic Scaliger Castle, once a lookout for pirates and poets alike. Whether you hike the ridgelines of Monte Baldo or stroll the lakeside promenade below, this corner of Italy is pure magic.

Kind of a weird experience to be making this photo in Lazise whilst there is this nearby bar playing disco classics all day long. 🤣 That bar does have quite nice (albeit somewhat overpriced) iced teas though.

As the sun slips behind the mountains and fishing boats gently bob in the harbour, the timeless charm of Lazise unfolds. Nestled on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, this lakeside village blends medieval heritage with a tranquil, romantic spirit.

Once a fortified town under the rule of the Scaliger family, Lazise still proudly displays its 13th-century castle walls and gates. Lose yourself in the old town’s cobbled alleys, enjoy gelato by the promenade, or watch the world drift by from the quaint port, where the air smells of pine and lake breeze. 🌲🌊

Whether you’re here for the views, the history, or just a moment of peace — Lazise whispers something unforgettable to every traveler.
