Paragliders at the Top of Monte Baldo above Malcesine on Lake Garda in Northern Italy


Monte Baldo, know since 1500 by the name of "Hortus Italiae", is a treasure chest where nature has gathered different climates, incomparable landscapes, ancient rock spires and flowers and divides Lake Garda from the Adige Valley which take on evocative and spectacular appearances with changing of the seasons he Mount Baldo chain, with its tallest peaks Mount Telegrafo (2,200 m) and Mount Altissimo (2,070 m), offers endless possibilities for hiking and trekking on various levels of difficulty. Its position as a divide between the Adige Valley and Lake Garda allows the people who climb its peaks to enjoy splendid panoramas that span from the Brenta Dolomites to the West, to the Stivo and Mount Cornetto to the North, to the Pasubio chain and Lessini mountains to the east, and to the blue waters of Lake Garda to the south. Due to its position rising above the plains, which allowed it to tower above the ice during the Glacial Age, Mount Baldo has preserved unique, endemic plant species
