Starting at the lakeshore in Limone, gives you the right boost to start your run your run. With the sound of the lake waves in your ears, fresh breeze in your back and a breathtaking view of the mountains, you´ll feel like you´re floating over lake Garda to Riva del Garda and indeed, you are!

The charming Italian streets are leading your way to the lakeshore promenade, passing then through orchards, up to Arco. Halftime! Recharged, you continue your run towards Torbole. Along the course, family, friends and countless spectators await you, cheering you on fiercely. You’re almost there! Whilst taking a look at the lake on your right side and the mountains on your left side, the finish line is almost there. You did it! Malcesine is here and the well-deserved reward is waiting for you.

Your start is in Arco, where the certainty of having the marathon runners chasing you really pushes you forward. Along the river Sarca you run towards the lake in Torbole, whose fresh breeze gives you new energy. With the cheers of the spectators in the back, you run metre by metre on a varied route between mountain slopes and lake shore and through tunnels. When the castle of Malcesine comes into your sight, you are almost there. You did it! Malcesine is here and the well-deserved reward is waiting for you.
