Location & what to see

Hotel Alpino is located along Via Statuto 23, in a favorable position in the medieval heart of Malcesine, a renowned resort town situated on the eastern Veronese shore of Lake Garda. The property allows guests to reach the main bus station on foot in just two minutes, located only 100 meters away, enabling easy travel without needing a car. Just 300 meters away are both the lake beaches and the monumental Scaligero Castle, an ancient fortress overlooking the water that houses the Museum of Natural History of Baldo and Garda. Directly opposite the property lies a green city park with a dedicated children’s playground.

The geographical position is well-suited for lovers of outdoor activities and nature excursions. A short distance from the hotel is the valley station of the spectacular Malcesine-Monte Baldo cable car, a modern system with rotating cabins covering an impressive elevation gain to reach the Tratto Spino station at approximately 1,760 meters altitude. From this panoramic ridge, numerous trails branch out for trekking, downhill riding, and mountain biking. Heading south for just 3.3 km leads to the hamlet of Cassone, home to the Aril River, famous for its length of only 175 meters, making it one of the shortest rivers in the world, while Acquafresca Beach is located 5.3 km away.

Malcesine also serves as an excellent hub for navigation and exploring other shores of the lake. Ferries and hydrofoils regularly depart from the harbor pier bound for Limone sul Garda and Riva del Garda, destinations famous for their lemon houses and the Upper Garda Bresciano Park. For air travelers, Verona Villafranca Airport is approximately 39.7 km away and is well connected via the Gardesana Orientale state road as well as seasonal shuttle bus services. Within a few steps of the hotel, there are also numerous historic wine bars, such as Enoteca Malcesine 300 meters away, and renowned trattorias where guests can sample local Veronese specialties.
