Description
Despite being one of the most popular towns on Lake Garda, Riva has managed to retain its old world charm. Positioned on the Northernmost point, the resort is popular for windsurfers and is a venue for the world cup curcuit. With plenty of bars and pavement cafes in the resort centre, you can choose to relax amongst the ambience or visit the 12th century fortress. A bustling nightlife is centred around the main harbour square in the evening.
