10Sirmione and the Scaliger Castle

One of Lake Garda’s most iconic spots is the town of Sirmione, located on a narrow peninsula that juts out into the lake.

The Scaliger Castle, a beautifully preserved medieval fortress, stands as a sentinel guarding the entrance to Sirmione. Visitors can explore the castle’s towers and walls while enjoying panoramic views of the lake. Stroll through Sirmione’s charming streets, relax in the natural thermal spas, and don’t forget to visit the Grotte di Catullo, ancient Roman ruins overlooking the lake.
