Parc Highlights

Perfectly placed for exploring all of Lake Garda
Direct access to a lovely, pebbly beach
Enjoy the parc's lovely Italian ambiance

This modern holiday parc set in the shadow of 'La Rocca', the large, rocky promontory from which the parc takes its name, is well situated for exploring the delights of this area.

With boats as frequent as buses you can relax and enjoy the magnificent sights with someone else doing the work! The camp-site has a lovely open feel with pleasant, grassy pitches. There's also plenty to do on site with tennis courts, table tennis and swimming pools for all the family, as well as organised activities during the high season. The pebbly lake beach is ideal to soak up the sun or try out the Eurocamp canoe. On a clear day a walk to the top of 'La Rocca' gives you a wonderful view of the shimmering expanse of Lake Garda, or why not enjoy a paddle across the lake to the island of S. Biagio. The nearby villages of Moniga and Manerba are really most attractive but the regular boat trips available from nearby Desenzano are definitely the best way to see most of the pretty lakeside villages. Further afield visit the picturesque old town of Brescia and day trips to historic Verona, bustling Milan or unforgettable Venice are also well within reach.

Neighbouring pitches are available to book on this parc. Please call our travel advisors to check availability for the 2012 season.
