The Northern part of Lake Garda is situated just across the
Austrian border in the province of Trentino and is the destination
if you feel like an active hioliday and want to enjoy nature,
culture and the Italian way of life.
The unique Mediterranean atmosphere, the impressive lake views and
the mild, summery climate form the basis of many successful
holidays. Owing to the ORA, a wind that starts every day at the same
time, it has been a meeting place for water sports enthusiasts from
all over the world for many years. But the varied and breathtakingly
beautiful mountains around the Northern bank of Lake Garda beg to be
seen and admired. Forests, glaciers, waterfalls, exotic plants and
idyllic vineyards. Alternating with picturesque villages,
fascinating castles and ancient country estates. A colourful chain
of unique views and a true paradise for practising active sports,
both in summer and in winter!
Malga Zanga
The Malga Zanga country estate, the homebase for your holiday, is
situated in these natural surroundings. Where the quality of life is
honoured. Where you can find real quiet. Where horses graze, a sheep
observes you with amazement and a tired hiker comes to enjoy a
refreshing drink. Villagers and experienced cyclists also find their
way to the country estate, for a caffè al bar, an aperitivo or pasta
al dente.
A country estate in the tradition of an ancient Malga, with
attention to nature, sustainability
and honest produce from the region. With the
fine and totally renovated country house offering all the mod cons
that a contemporary guest might wish for. With an eye for atmosphere
and a feel for hospitality.
Did you know, by the way, that a Malga was originally a country
estate in the higher regions where farmers went in summer to graze
their cows? For the simple reason that only there, in the rocky
mountainous landscape that is so typical of this region, there was
still enough space. Many of these Malghe have meanwhile been
proclaimed protected landscapes, which
are maintained with the aid of the province and the municipality,
because of their natural, cultural and recreational value.
For gourmets …
A ‘malga’ is also an Italian cheese produced in the mountains with
an agreeable, somewhat pungent taste and a slightly bitter
aftertaste.
