Bardolino

Bardolino is situated on Lake Garda at the widest point half-way along the Verona side. Its mild climate allowsof the growth of typical Mediterranean plants: olives, cypresses, oleanders, laurels, and vineyards prosper on the hills which surround the centre, which stretches towards the lake with two characteristic projections, formed over the centuries by the two rivers. In recent decades tourism has developed to support the traditional farming economy. Bardolino boasts about sixty hotels with an overall total of 4000 beds. The typical local products of wine, oil and fish all go to create excellent traditional meals, which can be tasted in the hotels, refined restaurants and the numerous country inns. Wine is the protagonist of many celebrations: in June the Feast of Bardolino Chiaretto (Clear Bardolino), in October the Feast of Grapes and of Bardolino wine, in November the Feast of Bardolino Novello (new Bardolino). There is also the traditional Grape Treatment during the grape harvest, when the grape juice is drunk which is very good for our health. The Municipal Administration of Bardolino gives you our dear guests a warm welcome. We are organising many events and festivals for you and among them we mention the following: • Date to be confirmed: Bardolino Air Show 2010 • Beginning of June: Feast of Bardolino Chiaretto Wine. • June: Triathlon - international sport competition. • July, 26: traditional Feast of St Anna in the hamlet of Calmasino. • September, 8-9: Bird Festival in the hamlet of Cisano - a traditional event including a competition between the best “Primavere” (Springs) and tasting of traditional dishes such as “trippa” (tripe) and “polenta e osei” (polenta served with birds). • 30/09 - 4/10: Grapes and Classic DOC Bardolino Wine Festival.
