FILA Lake Garda42 2026

It is usually through the location of a village 🏘️, a city 🏙️ or a capital 📍 that we begin... Not this time, as it is the largest Italian lake that takes the spotlight 🔦 for this FILA LAKE GARDA 42.

Located in the north of Italy 🇮🇹, the Lake Garda 🐟 or Lago di Garda is a vacation spot divided between the mountains of Trentin (to the north), Verona (to the southeast) and Brescia (to the southwest) 🧭. But for this event, it is the road enthusiasts who will participate in one of the two distances offered by Communico agency. On the agenda, a half-marathon and a marathon for the cyborgs of the endurance race 🤖. And let's not forget our dear kids 👶, they too will have their race with the LG Kids Run of 600 m for those under 7 or 1.8 km for those under 12. The temperatures should still be a bit chilly 🌡️ in this early April, so hold off a bit longer before storing away your technical underwear in your closet 😉.

When it's early April it means... Beginning of spring ! 🌸 Ahhhhh finally… Nature 🍃 comes back to life and winter ❄️ comes to an end! The first buds appear, the animals come out of hibernation 🐻 and the birds 🐦 return singing to your ears 🎶. It's three months of alternating (not at a company though 😅), between rain 🌧️ and sunny days ☀️. Well, the Italians are our neighbors, so they too face the famous spring showers. The weekend's program is versatile, making it an exciting and action-packed event 💪 awaiting you to escape the winter ☃️, in a breathtaking setting! 🌬️

We’ll start with the LG42 (you’ll understand why later), which is a marathon with 180mD+, starting from Limone, a charming village nestled between the mountain and the lake. You’ll head towards Riva del Garda, a town located at the northern tip of this same lake, with a refreshing sea breeze at your back, before continuing through the orchards of Arco 🍏. An Italian town forming an arch (hence its name 😉) around a calcareous rock, it is shaped by ancient glaciers 🧊 on which stands the ruins of the La Rocca castle 🏰.

While the marathoners will have reached the halfway point, it will only be the beginning for the runners of the LG21, which is a half-marathon with 50mD+ (that should be fine 🙄). Then, head to the resort of Torbole which seems designed for active vacationers 😎, with its numerous cafés ☕️ and restaurants 🍝. All runners now follow the eastern shore south, with the lake on the right ➡️ and the mountains on the left ⬅️. You will reach Malcesine in a sweeping move 🦵 before crossing the finish line 🏁 and becoming a finisher of an Italian race 🙌.

If you enjoyed the experience in the boot-shaped country, let us offer you new challenges 🆕. The Rome Marathon is one, in the city of seven hills, as is the Bari Med Marathon, facing the Adriatic sea 🌊, or the Venice Marathon, with (almost) as much fervor as the carnival 🎭.

In terms of discovery, you don't need to go far, Lake Garda still holds many surprises 🎁 for you. The seaside resort of Riva del Garda, nicknamed "the pearl of the lake", is a Mediterranean oasis, located at the foot of the Dolomites. You can admire a lush vegetation with lemon trees 🍋, palm trees 🌴, laurels, and olive trees 🫒. If you're looking for a bit of escape, stray away from the lake shores and go for an excursion to the Varone waterfalls 💦 at Tenno or discover Gardaland 🎡, Italy's number one leisure complex. Finally, if you're not too tired 😴 after your finish, gain some height with the Malcesine cable car 🚠. It will take you to the summit of Monte Baldo ⛰️ with an unobstructed view of the lake and the mountains, as well as the outline of the Castello Scaligero 🏰 located at its foot 🤩.

If you join us, you will truly enjoy it! 😉
