Day 15.
We decided today not to use the autostrada and it’s numerous tunnels as I’m beginning to feel like a mole occasionally emerging blinking in the sunlight. Instead we headed north to the top of the lake and then east. It wasn’t a swift route, many of the roads have 30kph and 50kph speed limits and a fair few speed cameras. The roads we took went through at least two mountain ranges and on three occasions we climbed on roads that resembled a corkscrew with hairpin bend after hairpin bend, exciting but tiring. We passed through mountain ski resorts that were closed waiting for the snow to arrive.
We left at 9.30 a.m and took a few stops en route but didn’t arrive at Camping Lombardi Sosta on Lake Garda until 5pm. We were weary and will do our utmost not to do a days driving like that again.
After an evening meal we wandered down to Lake Garda and enjoyed the lights shining across the water.
