Inside the Alto Garda Bresciano Park
Discover the municipality of Tignale on the north-western shore of Lake Garda
Made up of 6 hamlets nestled on a plateau of olive trees and orchards whose territory extends from the mountains down to the lake. Tignale offers the opportunity to spend time visiting the sanctuary of Montecastello, a 13th century monument par excellence, known for its architectural grandeur, artistic beauty and unique and spectacular panorama, and rediscover the completely restored ancient lemon house of Pra dela Fam. The suggestive position of Tignale ensures that you can spend unforgettable days between activities on the lake and others in the mountains.
To reach Tignale it is necessary to move away from the western shore of Lake Garda: gradually you can discover the six hamlets that make up the Municipality by following the ancient paths that connect them.
Through such testimonies it is possible to trace a historical legacy that can lead us to a new interpretation of the territory. An overview of customs and traditions is an objective now shared between the various associations present in the area which, through the establishment of the Ecomuseum of the lemon groves of Garda, aim to stimulate research, valorisation, and conservation of a very rich heritage.
The territory
Enjoy breathtaking views in tranquility.
The territory of Tignale, in the Parco Alto Garda Bresciano (Upper Garda Bresciano Park), it is characterised by the contrast between the lake coast, at 65 meters above sea level, and the hinterland mountains that can reach heights of 1600 m. The visitor can enjoy landscapes and itineraries of great naturalistic value. Switching from the lake to the hills and mountains means enjoying extraordinary views: from the characteristic terraces where typical mediterraneaen trees grow, such as olive, holly oaks, laurel and rosemary, to the woodlands filled with pine, ash, hornbeam, chestnut and beech trees and the continuing anticipation of a surprise view of the dazzling lake.
