Expert Tip. The top of Monte Baldo (5,791 feet) offers superb views across Lake Garda and is reached by a cable car which rotates as it ascends. The adventurous can take a mountain bike with them for a hair-raising descent back down the mountain and the completely fearless could take a hang glider.
