About Moniga del Garda
Moniga del Garda lies on the southwest side of Lake Garda, in the hills between Desenzano and Salò, at about 125 m above sea level. It is a small town with a castle, and the remains of a pile-dwelling village show people lived here in the Early Bronze Age. The local wine is Chiaretto, a light cherry-coloured rosé developed here in 1896 by a local man, and the town gives it a fair, Italia in Rosa, each June. The homes are grouped in one tight area around the town, and every one has a private pool. About half have a garden. They are small, sized for two to six, so this is not a big-group base. For a boat trip, a local bus runs to Salò, where ferries cross to Garda.
Is Moniga del Garda right for you?
- Best for
- Couples and small families wanting a private pool close to the airport
