Discover Costermano
Accommodation in Costermano
Costermano between rolling hills and Lake Garda
Costermano offers different ways to experience the landscape, history and outdoor activities. The Costermano German Military Cemetery is located in a hilly area on the eastern shore of Lake Garda and belongs to the municipality of Costermano. This means that when planning your trip, the town is not limited to a single attraction: you can include a landscape-oriented route, a place of remembrance, a church with preserved frescoes, and opportunities for cycling and walking in your selection.
The individual destinations represent different ways of experiencing Veneto around Lake Garda. The Valle dei Mulini offers a circular route in the hills above Garda. The military cemetery is designed to be accessible and has a distinctly different focus. This range is complemented by the Chiesa di San Lorenzo and the Bicigrill with its usable outdoor areas.
Hiking in the Valle dei Mulini
The Valle dei Mulini is located in the hills above Garda and can be explored as a circular route. The path through the valley is well signposted and begins at Via Valtesina. The fitness trail also starts there. This specific orientation makes the valley an independent option for a stay in which you would like to discover a signposted route in a hilly landscape.
The Valle dei Mulini is also accessible to hikers with little experience.
Remembrance and culture in Costermano
The remains of 22,028 German soldiers killed in action, as well as those of other fallen soldiers from the Second World War, rest at the Costermano German Military Cemetery. These other fallen soldiers were transferred from war cemeteries and other burial sites in northern Italy. The site is therefore defined by a clearly stated historical function. As the cemetery is designed to be accessible, this specific visitor feature is also part of the on-site orientation.
The Chiesa di San Lorenzo complements the historical perspective with a church monument. The church was consecrated in 1910 and became a parish church in 1949. Inside, frescoes by the painter Angelo Marchi depicting the Madonna del Rosario can be seen. When choosing between scenic routes and cultural destinations, the church therefore offers its own art-focused emphasis.
Walking and cycling paths and the Bicigrill
The municipality of Costermano has combined walking and cycling paths as well as cycle paths. This information describes the existing network of paths without specifying a particular route or duration. Another place to stop is the Bicigrill. It includes a dining area, ancillary rooms and a large meadow. The meadow is suitable for sporting, recreational and public events. This makes the site a place that combines a dining area with a versatile outdoor space.
