One week: Verona, Lake Garda & Valpolicella

A week means you can stop choosing. You do not have to sacrifice Verona for Lake Garda or skip Valpolicella because you want a nature or wellness day. With Pastrengo as your base, seven days can feel completely different while the place you return to stays the same.

Day 1 — Arrival and Pastrengo

Use the first day to change pace. Settle in, explore the immediate area and keep the plan light. With a week ahead, there is nothing to “catch up” on.

Day 2 — Lazise and Lake Garda

Give the day to the eastern shore. Start in Lazise and add a second stop only if you genuinely want one. Lakefront time and the atmosphere of the villages matter more than the number of pins on a map.

Day 3 — Verona

Spend a full day in Verona: Arena, historic centre, river, squares and breaks. Time lets you enter museums or simply stay longer in places you enjoy.

Day 4 — Nature or Gardaland

Choose according to your travel style: Parco Natura Viva for wildlife and nature, or Gardaland for a more energetic day. Always check official calendars.

Day 5 — Valpolicella

Move into the hills, visit a village such as San Giorgio di Valpolicella and build a day around landscape, history and local produce. Book winery visits or tastings in advance.

Day 6 — Wellness or a flexible day

Aquardens can become a dedicated relaxation day. Alternatively keep this day free for weather changes, another lake visit or something you discovered during the week.

Day 7 — The day you did not plan

Leave the last day open. After almost a week you will already know which place you want to revisit, which road looked interesting or where you would like to stay longer.

Why one base works for a week

Changing accommodation looks efficient on paper, but every move adds bags, timing and check-in. Pastrengo lets you explore a broad area without starting from zero every evening.
