Parking in Riva del Garda

Riva Del Garda

Riva del Garda is a beautiful town located on Lake Garda’s northern edge, popular with many windsurfers, kitesurfers, and sailors. It has around 17,000 inhabitants, so this place is pretty busy, especially in the high season. Even though there are many parking spots in this lovely town, it is still not so easy to find an available one.

The center of Riva del Garda is the limited traffic zone (ZTL), which means that cars are not allowed there if you do not have special permission, usually given to residents. Do not break this rule because this whole area is covered with cameras, and you can quickly get an expensive parking ticket.
