Excursions

The Poiano Hotel is the ideal starting point to visit some spectacular places: nature trails, art cities, historic sites, ancient villages.

La via dei mulini (Mills Valley)

The route of the mills is a great hike for families, away from traffic, to do by bike or on foot. A fascinating journey of 10.2 km, with a vertical drop of 220m, which leads into the picturesque valley of the Mills to the discovery of the only surviving mill among those that were once operated by the Gusa creek, dating back to 1600.

The route continues on to the historic centre of Costermano, with views overlooking Lake Garda, where you can find the Becelli-Rizzardi Palace dating back to 1400, and a pretty inhabited village.

The trail is like an outdoor gym, with equipment to workout along the way. Once you have crossed over the road to Garda, you are back at the starting point along the German Military Cemetery of World War II, which is the third largest in Italy, with its 22,000 mortal remains.
