A Thank You to Our Guests

Farewell to the 2024 Season:

On November 10, 2024, we close the doors of AktivHotel SantaLucia, bidding farewell to an intense and emotion-filled season.
This last weekend concluded with a brilliant sunny Sunday, embracing the energy of the half marathon athletes, an event that always marks the end of our season. This symbolic moment once again reminds us of the passion and dedication of those who visit and experience our hotel and the surrounding area.

During the closure period, our team will enjoy some rest but also devote time to improvement projects, as we do every winter. Every corner of the hotel and every detail is thoughtfully redesigned to welcome you in the new season, with small and large updates that help us offer an even more special experience to our guests.

We want to thank all our guests who helped make this season unique. Your stories, smiles, and passion have been our motivation. In early February 2025, we’ll be ready to welcome you back for a new chapter, with the same dedication and joy that defines AktivHotel SantaLucia.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone, and… see you soon!

TORBOLE, RIVA DEL GARDA, ARCO

Torbole is the ideal destination if you are sporty and love outdoor activities. Here, the days are filled with activities - mountain biking, road biking, Nordic walking, hiking, climbing, surfing, canoeing, sailing or walking

The town of Arco certainly deserves a visit. Once a holiday destination for Austrian nobility, it still offers many things. The famous medieval Castello di Arco, which dominates the valley, was reconstructed according to Dürer's drawings.

When your not walking or cycling, you should find time during your holiday on Lake Garda to visit Riva del Garda. In the narrow romantic streets of the historical center you will find plenty of "shopping-potential" and inviting restaurants, ideal for a cappuccino or aperitif. A trip into the past will take you to the Bastion of Riva, a Venetian fortress. La Rocca, the town museum of Riva, is also not to be missed.

"What do bikers really want?
Panoramic and enjoyable paths. Good food and good drinks when back from the tour, good accomodations and full service for their bike.
Lake Garda region offers all this, more than any other place in Europe: amazing views over the Lake during most of the tours, picturesque roads and trails for all ability levels, restaurants and lodges serving delicious local foods. One of my favorite places is the AktivHotel SantaLucia - sporty and welcoming atmosphere, excellent service, Bike Service with Bike Wash, workshop and laundry, huge breakfast buffet and wine cellar. This is a very quiet location with direct access to the most beautiful tours in the east and north of Lake Garda. In summary: highly recommended."

Yellow Jersey at the Tour de France

Viktor Hugo Pena

In 2003, I had the honour to wear the "yellow jersey" at the Tour de France. For me it was a dream come true that, before this important event, in January, I was able to train on the Lake Garda for 20 days. For years, we had talked about it during international races and it was really a big surprise for us and for me that we were able to train in this really great place. We would like to thank Silvio Rigatti for giving us so much support in his AktivHotel SantaLucia in Torbole. I wish to invite all cyclists in the world to come and train in this beautiful place on Lake Garda.

WINDSURF

Torbole sul Garda is a real windsurfer's paradise! With good weather, the wind blows constantly from north in the morning and from south in the afternoon.
The waves of the lake are suitable for both experienced and beginner surfers and sailors. Beginners typically are encouraged to go out in the morning, because the wind is not as strong as in the afternoon.

Our partner SURF SEGNANA is your perfect trainer both for classes and for equipment rental, just a short stroll from AktivHotel SantaLucia

"There are many cycling friendly hotels all around Europe, and thanks to my job as a consultant for tourist regions and hotels, I see a lot of them every year.
But I know a few houses where the cycling theme is really truly felt : Silvio Rigatti, owner of AktivHotel SantaLucia and his team, will give you a true and genuine hospitality, fully dedicated to bikers.

We are going to the Ponale waterfall, one of the loveliest places in all Garda Trentino and accessible only via lake. For a swimming adventure by the first lights of dawn!

Gilberto Simoni

I very often come to the AktivHotel SantaLucia on Lake Garda and, every time, I experiment new special tours which offer great views of the lake and of the countryside.
The mountains of the Garda Trentino reflect themselves in the lake, and make memorable this cycling experience. You could describe Lake Garda as a large heater that maintains mild temperatures, which never drop below zero. This gives sports people the opportunity to train even in winter, stay on the bike for a few more kilometers, and enjoy beautiful, sunny days. The training around the lake even allows you to practice some elevation changes. Training at the beginning of the season is really magnificent. You could say that Garda Trentino is heaven for all who want to ride.
I recommend everyone to try it at least once.

"I have been traveling to Lake Garda for years, because of my job testing bikes, first for BIKE magazine, and now mainly for EMTB. Our tests take place mainly during the winter season. The climate is always mild and dry, perfect for winter training. When I can, I stay at Silvio’s at the AktivHotel SantaLucia. There, the trails start right at the doorstep. The hotel has everything a biker may want and the feeling is good. Thanks to the whole team for the great collaboration!"
