Lake Garda offers countless ideas for celebrating a bachelorette party, all united by a few indispensable ingredients: water, to cool off on hot days; nature, the backdrop for many wellness experiences and slow discovery of the area; wine, expertly produced in the hinterland of the lake; and the evenings, in which the famous social life of the clubs and beach bars comes to life.
Organising a weekend at Lake Garda full of exciting activities with your girlfriends, different from the usual and perhaps never tried before, will make you want to return there for a real holiday on your own (we will reveal the opportunities for Solo Travellers in the next blog) or in company. But now let's see what to do at Lake Garda to experience a memorable bachelorette party.
Together on a sailing boat for your Once in a Lifetime experience
A fresh, fun and at the same time private and exclusive proposal: a sailing excursion guided by a professional skipper to discover Lake Garda from a privileged perspective. A perfect itinerary is the one that starts from the gulf of Toscolano Maderno to sail along the western coast of Lake Garda, which offers a unique view of some of the lake's main natural and architectural wonders. If you wish to set sail in the morning, choose the private sailing trip from Toscolano Maderno with lunch on board. Sailing will give you unique emotions: the wind in your hair, the silence, the sense of freedom will be even more beautiful when shared with lifelong friends. On the calmer waters of the Gulf of Salò you will enjoy your lunch, amidst chats, toasts, and breathtaking scenery.
If, on the other hand, you are dreaming of an unforgettable golden hour on a boat, the private sailboat trip with skipper and sunset aperitif is the experience for you. When the heat of the day fades and the sky is coloured in its most beautiful hues, you can raise your glasses to toast the bride-to-be and immortalise these moments to keep them in your album of memories.
An outdoor bachelorette party amidst wellness activities surrounded by nature
After the fun of the boat experience on the first day, you can relax on the second by taking part together in one or more wellness activities that are easy and affordable for everyone: a gentle outdoor sport or an ancient discipline such as yoga. What would you say, for example, to a group SUP yoga session in Limone sul Garda that combines contact with water and the practice of yoga in an unconventional way?
If, on the other hand, you would like to experience an all-encompassing wellness experience, opt for the group yoga class in the lemon house at Gardone Riviera. The ancient lemon grove facing the lake is in fact the perfect setting to encourage your concentration; a space immersed in nature, intimate and reserved, where you will learn to achieve your physical and inner balance.
An equally suitable location for yoga practice is the Hatha yoga relaxation group lesson in Moniga del Garda: in the park of a historic castle overlooking the lake, the teacher will accompany you to a state of total relaxation through meditation and breathing techniques. A true panacea to recover your energy before continuing your celebrations.
Other proposals include nature walks, to let you discover the area in an unusual, slow and original way: the alpaca walk at Lake Garda will bring you closer to a peaceful and docile animal that will make you fall in love at first sight. Accompanying them along a route around the farm will be extremely relaxing, because you will be immersed in the sounds of nature and moved by the extreme gentleness of these animals.
Oriented instead towards the exploration of the area is the walk along the Via di Minerva and the Rocca e del Sasso Nature Reserve, which, starting from Santa Maria in Valtenesi, will lead you to the discovery of natural sites of wild beauty and architectural works of historical value, in a continuous swing between nature and culture.
Finally, if you are looking for a curious and unusual experience that you have probably never tried before, you can opt for the ancient art of the herbalist: the collection and processing of essences. First among the paths in search of wild plants, then through cultivated fields and finally in the distillery: a complete itinerary that will bring you closer to the ancient and fascinating practice of producing essential oils.
Wine and food in company: a cheerful and convivial combination to celebrate life
Our winery wine-tasting proposals include several fun and modern experiences, which are well suited to celebrate Bacchus and the Bride: created with a new and unconventional approach, they allow you to intensively experience the location and taste excellent local wine. Lake Garda wine tasting on a farm with a snack: on their farm in Valtenesi, two young sommeliers will make you feel at home and the star of the show.
A convivial lunch, excellent wine, and a setting of rare beauty: this is what you will find when you choose the wine tasting and lunch at the bio-natural swimming pool on Lake Garda: a colourful day of merriment and light-heartedness, a dip in the bio-natural swimming pool, and a tasting lunch around an outdoor table, under the shade of centuries-old trees.
If, on the other hand, you prefer to spread a tablecloth on the lawn and remain barefoot in the grass, our proposal is a picnic in the vineyard of a renowned wine resort on Lake Garda: a picnic experience in a place frozen in time, shrouded in centuries-old history and a huge private park, with a view of the Garda basin and the island of the same name, a taste experience of excellent products and wines.
If, on the other hand, you are looking for a bucolic, simple and well-kept setting, we propose the tasting of local products in the southern hinterland of Lake Garda: an aperitif snack will thus reveal the authentic flavours of the area, while you will witness first-hand the rituals of country life and listen to the stories of those who dedicate their hard work and care to these lands every day.
Among the food and wine proposals, you cannot miss the tasting of extra virgin olive oil and organic wines at Lake Garda: the excellence of Lake Garda is the protagonist of this tasting, at a farm in Valtenesi, which also boasts organic certification. Marco, a profound connoisseur of the ancient art of oil production, will lead you step by step in the tasting of different monovarietal oils, revealing the secrets of this cultivation, between tradition and innovation.
Between fun and active experiences before the nightlife
Lake Garda combines the beauty of the places, in which to live, stroll and taste typical products, with the fun of the increasingly popular nightclubs on the beach: for this reason, too, it is chosen by brides-to-be and their friends to celebrate their bachelorette parties.
Fun is guaranteed on the Vespa selfie tour departing from Peschiera del Garda: a whole day full of emotions and discoveries, guided by an app that will show you the route and stages, designed to leave nothing to chance. All you will have to do is enjoy the pleasure of discovery, taste selected typical products, and take selfies in the saddle of your Vespa with postcard-perfect scenery behind you.
While waiting to let loose with wild dancing, a social aperitif awaits you, to get the party started already in the late afternoon: the Aperi-sup tour at sunset in the crystal-clear waters of Toscolano Maderno offers you a decidedly original alternative; alternatively, you can experience a sparkling pre-dinner on the hills of the southern lake, with a fantastic Aperitivo with Lugana wine tasting in the vineyard at Lake Garda, prepared by the sunny and welcoming hosts in the dehors among the vines.
Garda offers this and much more, all it takes is imagination and a pinch of madness to set out to explore something new, in an innovative way. This is what the experiment is all about: 'experiencing', where 'how you do it' becomes more important than 'what you do'. It will be a bachelorette party to remember in all the dinners you will have among you friends, in the wonderful years ahead.
