An epic view of lake Garda is from the top of Monte Baldo. Unfortunately, due to low clouds, I do not have a photo of this. But I do have a good and unknown tip for you. normally everyone goes to the top with the cable car from Malcesine. this is an expensive ride (€ 25 euros) and in the summer there are queues of a few hours. with about an hour drive through beautiful mountains and nature, you come to the point where I have placed the pin. There is a cable car too for just € 5 euros, no tourists and no queue. once at the top, you arrive almost at the same point as the other cable car JUST FOLLOW THE PIN TO GET THERE 📌 ⬇️⬇️ Make my day and follow me also at: ⬇️⬇️ https://www.instagram.com/denniskuh1896/ https://www.facebook.com/dennisdondersphotography/ https://500px.com/dennisdonders www.flickr.com/photos/denniskuh1896
