La Capannina

Lake Garda


Arguably the best of several eating options available at the upper station of the cable car is freshly renovated La Capannina, located around 200m north of the main buildings. Choose from a sunny terrace with sunloungers or a woodsy alpine interior. The mountain-flavoured menu emphasises polenta, mushroom tagliatelle, strudel and the like.
