The Norway Master Academy on a Vespa Trip in Italy 2026

Norway's Champions Academy – along Lake Garda on a Vespa

NB! This is a private tour, and only for specially invited guests.

Vespa adventure on spectacular mountain roads by Lake Garda

Where the mighty Brenta Dolomites meet the crystal-clear waters of Lake Garda, you will find the charming towns of Riva del Garda and Torbole. These towns, surrounded by towering mountains, have become an eldorado for exciting outdoor activities – including adventurous Vespa excursions!

And right here, in Torbole, we invite the Master Academy to an exciting Vespa tour around Lake Garda. The roads wind through the landscape, with mountains and the lake taking turns to dominate the view – an incredibly beautiful combination.

Colorful Torbole

We are staying in Torbole, within short walking distance to Lake Garda, the beach promenade, and Riva del Garda. There will, of course, be plenty of socializing, and as always – delicious Italian food and wine!

For those who wish, we will also arrange some great hikes and activities in the local area on some of the afternoons, after all, we are staying in a landscape that simply must be experienced!

Day 1Arrival Lake Garda

Herlige Torbole ved Gardasjøen | Expa Travel

Arrival at Milan Malpensa Airport at 13:40. Approx. 2.5 hours transfer to the hotel in Torbole, with a short stop for a bite to eat (not included).

Upon arrival in Torbole, we check in at the hotel. The afternoon is spent getting to know the local area, and perhaps we will also have time for a refreshing swim in Lake Garda before gathering for a joint dinner at a local pizzeria (included).

AccommodationHotel Santoni

Day 2Vespa Excursion Strada della Forra / Hike Monte Brione

Monte Brione, fjellet som ligger mellom Riva del Garda og Torbole | Expa Travel

For those who wish, the day starts early with some exercise – perhaps a walk along the lake with a morning dip?

After breakfast, we walk together to the rental company to pick up the Vespas (scooters). We take our time for test driving and testing before we hit the road. The roads along Lake Garda and up into the mountains are narrow and winding, with spectacular views!
Strada della Forra was called "the most beautiful road in the world" by Churchill himself.

Along the way, we make several stops, both for photos, cappuccino, and gelato. Lunch at a local trattoria (included).

We expect to be back in Torbole relatively early in the afternoon. Then, those who wish can join a great hike up to Monte Brione, the "mountain" located between the towns of Torbole and Riva del Garda. A great hike of approx. 2 hours in total. Magical views of Lake Garda, the Dolomites, and the valley north of the lake – and all the vineyards there.

After a shower and some relaxation, we gather for a joint dinner in the evening (included).

Day 3Vespa Excursion over Monte Baldo

Vi synes godt i terrenget når vi er på Vespaturer | Expa Travel

This is going to be an adventurous day! Today we start a little earlier, as we are going on a slightly longer trip. We are going over the mighty Monte Baldo, with the highest point at 1600 meters above sea level. The route continues around this mountain massif located between the Trento Valley and Lake Garda. The view along the way is absolutely fantastic, and the trip of approx. 110 km offers spectacular roads and surroundings!

We stop for lunch along the way (included), and the day ends with a pleasant dinner in Torbole (included).

Ingvild Jacobsen - on a trip with Expa Travel

We have nothing but good things to say about Expa Travel. A group of 26 friends on a trip had an eventful journey with an impressive guide who led us through the many historical sites of the Abruzzo region. The following year, the same group rode Vespas in Tuscany, and the year after that, we got to experience Sicily on two wheels. We have already booked another trip and are looking forward to autumn 2026 ❤️
