Bassanega between Monte Bestone and the lake

Bassanega lies at 303 metres above sea level on the lower slopes of Monte Bestone. Bassanega is the hamlet of Tremosine sul Garda closest to Limone del Garda. For planning your trip, this brings together the elevated location, the mountain setting and the orientation towards Limone. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Bassanega, you can make landscape impressions, walks, cycling experiences or cultural discoveries your first focus.

At the entrance to Bassanega, there is a viewpoint offering very wide views of the northern part of the lake. This viewpoint complements the location on the lower slopes of Monte Bestone with a clear visual connection to the water. The result is a destination where active pursuits and deliberately planned moments to enjoy the landscape can be combined in your personal daily itinerary.

Small cultural highlights along the way

A few metres from Bassanega, the Tamazzo Chapel is located on the road to Limone. It features a fresco of the Madonna and Child. A votive shrine was also erected at the junction of Via Bellavista and Via Apollo 11. It was built in 1994 and is dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes. The chapel, fresco and shrine complement the landscape impressions with specific points of interest for your trip planning and give a stay in Bassanega additional thematic connections.

Strada della Forra also has a historical accent. It was officially inaugurated with a large celebration on 18 May 1913. This precise inauguration date connects the road with a tangible reference in time and makes it interesting for planning in which cycling tours, landscape and culture are not viewed separately.

Exploring on foot or by bicycle

Bassanega is a starting point for various walks. At the same time, the mountain-bike circuit between Limone sul Garda and Passo Tremalzo runs through Bassanega. The cycling tour along Strada della Forra also passes through the hamlet. This allows you to take different types of day into account: a walk, a mountain-bike circuit or a cycling tour with the historic road section as its central theme. The various routes help you plan your preferred combination of activity, landscape and discovery without restricting Bassanega to just one type of holiday.
