Riva del Garda — Bastione & Rocca

Trentino-Alto Adige

Riva del Garda has two distinct fortifications worth combining: the waterline Rocca, a moated medieval fortress right on the harbour, and the Bastione, a 16th-century Venetian outpost on the hillside above town reached by a stepped path with a sweeping view down over the lake's northern basin.
