Monte Baldo Site Features

The rotating cable car

The cabins turn slowly as they climb, so everyone gets the whole view without moving. It is a genuinely good piece of engineering and half the reason people come.

The flora

Endemic species found nowhere else, and a compressed sequence of vegetation zones from Mediterranean to alpine within a couple of thousand metres of altitude.

The ridge walk

From the top station, paths run along the crest with the lake two thousand metres below on one side and the Adige valley on the other.

The view

The whole of Lake Garda laid out end to end, with the Dolomites north and the Po plain south.
