Tremosine is located on a plateau which falls steeply down to the western shore of Lake Garda and which is part of the Parco Alto Garda Bresciano.
The municipality with 2.130 inhabitants consists of 18 districts, of which only one, Campione, lies directly at the Lake. The others are scattered over a wide area over the plateau and the valleys: Pieve (seat of the municipality), Arias, Bassenega, Cadignano, Castone, Mezzema, Musio, Pregasio, Prezzo, Secastello, Sermerio, Sompriezzo, Ustecchio, Vesio (with the largest number of inhabitants), Villa, Voiandes and Voltino.
The area provides a wide variety of natural beauty, from the Mediterranean to the alpine landscape, with the Lake, the valleys and the hills and mountains covered with olive groves. The numerous mule trails lead into the mountains and offer interesting hiking- and mountain bike tracks.
A panoramic road which leads from the harbour through a canyon to the plateau provides breathtaking views over Lake Garda. It has been elected as the “most beautiful road of the world” by the “Frankfurter Zeitung”.
Due to the proximity of the Lake the climate is mild and typically Mediterranean throughout the year and changes with increasing altitude to a temperate continental climate.
Tremosine has been added to the list of “the most beautiful villages in Italy”, (I borghi più belli d’Italia) from the association of Italian municipalities because of its special architectural beauty. |
