Location & what to see

Hotel Castello Lake Front is located in Malcesine, a Venetian town situated on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, right at the foot of Mount Baldo. The property stands on Via Paina, just 150 metres from the famous Scaliger Castle, a medieval fortress perched over the water that dominates the town’s historic centre with its cobbled streets, craft shops, and local wine bars.

Getting around is easy thanks to the proximity to the SR249 state road and the Malcesine bus station 300 metres away. Approximately 1.7 km from the property lies the intermediate station of the Malcesine-Monte Baldo Cable Car, a rotating cabin lift ascending up to an altitude of 1,760 metres. For arrivals by plane, Verona Villafranca Airport is approximately 40 km away, while Brescia and Milan Bergamo airports can be reached via the shuttle service organized by the property.

The area offers numerous leisure opportunities in every season. During the summer months, the private beach and the Aril River—located 3.7 km away and known as the shortest river in the world at 175 metres long—are ideal stops for coastal walks. Water sports enthusiasts such as sailors and windsurfers will find perfect conditions here thanks to the winds of Upper Garda, while trekking lovers can explore the trails of Busatte Adventure Park or reach the peaks of Mount Baldo.
