Alan Rogers Review
Lake Idro, one of the smaller of the northern Italian lakes, is tucked away in the mountains to the west of Lake Garda. Rio Vantone is on the southeast shore of the lake with marvellous views across the water to the villages on the opposite bank and surrounding mountains. The ground slopes gently down to the water’s edge with many of the 190 touring pitches in level rows divided by hedges, with others between tall trees. All have 6A electricity and there are 46 with water and drainage. The ones nearest the lake attract a higher charge. The lake is ideal for windsurfing and the surrounding countryside for walking and climbing.

Go north on SS45bis towards Salò then follow brown signs for Valle Sabia and Lago d’Idro on SS237 via Vobarno, Barghe (bypassed) and Lavenone to Lemprato. Take care not to miss right turn into narrow road after town sign for Idro. Site is north of town.
