Limone holidays promise a fragrant getaway, nestled in lemon groves between imposing Monte Baldo and Lake Garda.
Silver-screen-worthy scenery
Pretty as a picture, Limone hugs northern Italy's rugged mountains on the north-west shore of Lake Garda. Its narrow cobbled streets are filled with brightly coloured houses, and you'll whiff the scent of citrus everywhere you stroll. The clue's in the town's name – Limone is famed for its lemon trees.
Laidback lake cruises
Cafés and souvenir shops delight the tourists who flock here in the summer, but the road into Limone is a fairly recent build. Up until 1932, visitors had to come by boat. While that's no longer needed, cruising the water's one of the best ways to spend an afternoon here.
Citrus traditions
Life gives you lemons on Lake Garda. Limonaia del Castel, a centuries-old lemon orchard turned museum, has the lowdown on all things lemony – plus some of the best views across the lake. It's also a welcome retreat from the crowds along the waterfront.
