Snuggled in behind Riva del Garda, under an amphitheatre of sheer cliffs, Arco is well known for being a fantastic destination for rock climbers and outdoorsy types, but it is also ideal for anyone seeking a peaceful base on Lake Garda. Arco is just high enough to feel a bit aloof from the tourists, but also for the views to get really spectacular, and the best places to stay in Arco have some of the best views on the whole of the lake. Arco’s accommodation choices do include a specialist rock climbers' hotel, as well as a collection of chic bungalow suites, and a number of charmingly converted villas.
Outdoor sports enthusiasts of all kinds will probably appreciate the facilities of Arco, mountain bikers and hikers especially, but it's also a lovely destination for anyone who likes to spend a bit of time sitting somewhere extremely picturesque, while eating and drinking exceptionally well. And in five star luxury too, if you fancy it!
Arco is really well known for its clear air and thermal waters, cheerfully mild climate, and Mediterranean style gardens and produce. Its Arboretum is a microcosm of this biological diversity, but there are lots of pretty gardens dotted around the historic part of town too, along with picturesque squares, narrow streets, and hidden alleyways. Arco also has a medieval castle, several extremely impressive palazzos, and some beautiful religious buildings.
As with most destinations in the area don't book too late if you're planning your visit during the peak summer months; the best places to stay in Arco fill up very quickly!
