Limone sul Garda

The town extends along steep cliffs rising from Lake Garda, connected to neighboring areas through tunnels carved into mountain walls.

Until the 1940s, the settlement remained isolated and could only be reached by boat or mountain paths before the construction of modern roads.

The traditional lemon gardens, built with stone pillars and wooden boards, represent the agricultural methods developed by local farmers since the 1700s.

The town offers direct ferry connections to multiple Lake Garda destinations, with boats departing regularly from the central harbor throughout the day.

The population carries a genetic mutation called ApoA-1 that provides protection against cardiovascular diseases and contributes to extended life spans.
