Lake, mountains, and sports: these are just some of the reasons that push school groups and sports teams to choose Lake Garda for their trips.

A trip to Lake Garda is the ideal choice for sports groups and school trips for many reasons: the natural beauty and many outdoor activities this area offers allow for a multitude of possibilities.

 

For climbers and sailors, this area needs no introduction: the quality of sports services and accommodation facilities has made Alto Garda one of the most sought-after destinations in the world for sports such as climbing and sailing.

 

Let’s find out why a sports group or school trip should choose Lake Garda and the features that make this area the ideal choice for retreats and training.

Trip to Lake Garda: why it’s the ideal destination

For sports enthusiasts, Lake Garda has always been synonymous with excellence. Cyclists, climbers, and sailors find a true paradise here, thanks to high-level accommodation facilities and a natural environment that fosters outdoor activities.

The towering mountains and cliffs surrounding the lake attract climbers from all over the world, while the lake’s windy waters offer perfect conditions for sailing and windsurfing.

 

The area is also renowned for its mountain bike trails and the many opportunities for outdoor sports such as trail running and paragliding. The quality of sports services and accommodation facilities makes Lake Garda – especially Garda Trentino, the northern part of the lake – the ideal destination for retreats, training, and competitions. Thanks to the combination of spectacular nature and excellent services, this corner of Italy continues to be one of the most coveted destinations for sports groups of all levels.

 

Moreover, the many outdoor activities, such as hiking on Monte Baldo, enjoying a boat trip, or practicing outdoor sports, provide a dynamic setting for school trips with a focus on sports. Regardless of the time of year, a trip to Lake Garda, with its extraordinary variety of landscapes and cultural richness, allows young athletes, teachers, and coaches to experience unforgettable moments in any season.

Residence Centro Vela: the solution for sports groups and school trips

Residence Centro Vela is the perfect choice for both sports groups and school trips to Lake Garda. Over the years, we have hosted hundreds of young athletes and adapted our services and spaces to suit this type of group.

 

We have always offered flexible solutions, even for stays of just one night. Students and athletes can stay in comfortable multi-occupancy apartments, while accompanying teachers, coaches, and drivers can enjoy accommodations with all the comforts: single or double rooms with private bathrooms. Bed linen and towels are always included.

 

The property offers both room-only rates – thanks to the kitchenettes in the apartments – and the option of a buffet breakfast. For those who prefer half board, the residence has agreements with two restaurants: one within the property and another just a few steps away.

 

Upon request, we offer private rooms for group meetings or as storage for sports equipment. We also collaborate with the multisport center Sailing Du Lac, located on the lakeside of Riva del Garda. Here, groups can choose from numerous activities such as SUP outings, kayaking, mountain biking, or sailing and windsurfing courses, perfect for stays of several nights. For those staying just one night, there is still the possibility to participate in an activity.

 

We wish you a pleasant trip: we look forward to welcoming you to Residence Centro Vela to make your trip to Lake Garda even more unforgettable.
