Sup in Malcesine

In recent years, SUP has been able to quickly win over those who usually frequent the lake area of Malcesine. In addition, travelling this way gives you the chance to reach enchanting landscapes that cannot be reached except by the lake.
It is a sport that combines using a surfboard and a paddle, allowing you to paddle standing up while enjoying company.

Safe and simple, stand up paddling is a sport for everyone. The requirements for practising SUP are essentially two: having good balance and being able to swim.

So, do not worry if you are a novice. In Malcesine you will find where to rent a SUP board and paddle and enjoy walking on the water of Lake Garda right away.

What is the ideal time to do SUP?

The summertime is a good time to learn how to paddle.

If you want to relax in calm water, you can choose the morning just before noon or evening before sunset. At these times of the day, the wind blows less and you will be delighted by the serenity of “gliding” on the water of the lake.

How to choose a SUP board?

There are different types of boards, and you can choose the right one based on your experience and the type of activity you plan to do.

They come in different shapes and different materials. Lately, inflatable boards have become popular, which are easy to carry, ideal for vacations, or for beginners and children.

On the other hand, stiff boards offer better performance, are more suitable for those with some experience and accustomed to stronger waves and wind.

With the Pelèr, a typical early morning wind that blows across Lake Garda, you can enjoy taming the force of the water while paddling.

Where can you SUP on Lake Garda?

At Malcesine, SUP is a sporting activity that should definitely be tried.

You will be able to arrange different SUP tours on Lake Garda, visiting for example the three islands: Trimelone Island, Island of Olive Trees, and Island of Dreams.

Paddling along the coasts on a SUP board allows you to see the small towns of Lake Garda and the mountains from fabulous perspectives. In the evening, it will be a great way to end the day, and on the way, you can stop at one of the many bars along the beach.

By practising SUP in Malcesine, you will have an exciting experience in the silence of the nature of Lake Garda.
