ABOUT THE CAMPSITE
Camping Gajole is a small-scale and peaceful nature campsite, beautifully situated on the Lago di Corlo in the Veneto region, on the edge of the Dolomites. The campsite is run by sisters Danielle and Doris Turra and offers a relaxed holiday experience far away from the hustle and bustle of mass tourism.
The campsite is situated directly on the lake and has its own small beach. Lago di Corlo is known for its crystal-clear water and natural surroundings, with the mountain peaks of the Dolomites on the horizon. Here, the only sounds you'll hear are birdsong, wind through the trees, and the soft lapping of the water.

Sports & activities0.5 kmWalk from the campsite along the water and you'll reach this beach bar on the lake. You can hire a canoe, SUP or pedalo here and paddle to the narrow, fjord-like part towards the dam. Then enjoy a bruschetta on the grass by the shore.

Sports & activities35.2 kmA tandem flight from the Panarotta, with the lakes of Levico and Caldonazzo below you. You don't need any skills: the pilot does the work while you enjoy the view over the Valsugana.
View on the map →
Sports & activities10.8 kmFlat cycle path along the Brenta from Bassano to Lake Caldonazzo, more than eighty kilometres in total. You join it at Primolano or Cismon, close to the campsite, and choose how far you go. Along the way there are bicigrills for coffee, repairs and e-bikes.

Beach & nature0.5 kmThe reservoir of Arsiè, also called the little Norwegian fjord of the Veneto because of its steep rock walls. Swim, paddleboard or float on an airbed, or walk the twelve-kilometre loop around the lake. From the end of August the water level drops, so check that first.
View on the map →
Beach & nature1.8 kmA chain bridge from 1928 hanging high above the narrow part of the lake, near the hamlet of Rocca. It sways a little as you cross and gives the best view of the water between the rocks. Walk on to the old houses of Carazzagno.

Beach & nature23.5 kmWorld Heritage Site with walking trails for every level, from family routes to mountain hikes. Start in the Val Canzoi, the heart of the park: the loop around Lago della Stua is almost flat and runs through cool forest with the Cimonega peaks above.

Beach & nature15 kmFour karst caves in the Brenta valley, where you glide into the mountain in a little wooden boat across an underground lake. It's always ten degrees inside, so bring a jumper. Around them is a park with streams, a picnic spot and a small aquarium.
View on the map →
Beach & nature10.6 kmThe summit of Monte Grappa at 1,775 metres, with views from the Dolomites to the Venetian Lagoon on a clear day. At the top stands the impressive war memorial from 1935 and a museum with trenches and a tunnel you can visit.

Beach & nature37.1 kmBeach on Lake Levico, one of the warmest lakes in the region, with a playground, a lawn for sunbathing under tall trees and a beach bar. Next door is Levicoland with mini golf and bowling, for when it rains or the children have had enough of swimming.
View on the map →
Culture & day trips22.4 kmLively little town on the Brenta with Palladio's wooden bridge as its eye-catcher. Have a grappa at Nardini at the start of the bridge, stroll through the centre with its squares and little shops and taste the white asparagus when it's in season.
View on the map →
Culture & day trips72.4 kmThe city of canals as a day trip: St Mark's Square, the Doge's Palace, the Rialto Bridge and the quiet alleyways in between. Drive to Bassano del Grappa and take the train from there, so you avoid the parking stress and walk straight out of Santa Lucia station into the city.
View on the map →
Culture & day trips12.4 kmRenaissance town on a hill, with painted façades along Via Mezzaterra and Piazza Maggiore with its fountains. The nearest real town from the campsite, and easy to combine with a drive into the Val Canzoi. In early August there's the Palio.

Culture & day trips2.1 kmThe village above the campsite, within walking distance: a square with a bar-gelateria, a butcher, a greengrocer and a bakery selling local bread. Lovely for a morning walk with fresh rolls as your reward.

Restaurant3.6 kmFarm restaurant high above Arsiè, reached by a winding road past Col del Gallo. Alessandro cooks with whatever the vegetable garden and farmyard provide: homemade pasta, beans from Lamon, bread from the wood-fired oven. It's small, so booking is essential.

Last August we spent a number of wonderful days at Gajole in Italy, staying in a tent from Lodge Holidays. What a luxury! Lovely beds, a private kitchen and even a private shower and toilet. A luxury espresso machine, Weber BBQ and plenty of FatBoy furnishings. You really no longer get the feeling that you are staying in a tent. An immaculately presented tent, and a welcoming and helpful campsite team! You can dine at the restaurant, but there is also a small yet fully stocked campsite shop. Cooking in your own covered outdoor kitchen is, incidentally, an absolute delight as well... All the tents were occupied, yet you are not at all disturbed by the 'neighbours', even when sitting out on the (large!) terrace. The campsite is relaxed and situated beside a beautiful lake in a wonderful setting. Highly recommended!

What a hidden gem this campsite is! We were there for 2 weeks in April and had a wonderful holiday! Beautiful and spacious pitches with stunning views of the mountains everywhere. Situated on Lago di Corlo, a beautiful and peaceful lake. Neat and very clean sanitary facilities, with shower curtains yes, but we did not find this to be a disadvantage! The 2 sister owners are very friendly and attentive ladies who always had time for us. With the dog you have a great many walking opportunities, straight from the campsite into the forest! There is also a walking path along the lake towards Arsiè. There are plenty of day trips to be made. You receive a map listing many possibilities. The little village of Arsiè has a small supermarket, a baker, a butcher and a wonderful and affordable pizzeria: Flaminio. The access road is only narrow at the last little hamlet (1 street with houses), but perfectly manageable with our (large) caravan. Moreover, everyone knows that motorhomes/caravans use the road, so people take this into account. The last stretch to the campsite is wider again and you can see oncoming traffic approaching. There is no road running alongside the campsite, so it is blissfully quiet! The campsite has a bar/pizzeria and an outdoor terrace. It all looks very welcoming. Thank you for your hospitality. We will be back!!!!

We have just spent 4 weeks at this campsite. The campsite is beautifully situated on the Lago di Corlo. As it was still the beginning of the season, it was wonderfully quiet. We had a lovely pitch with a view of the lake. Within a few minutes' walk, you can get into the lake for a swim — something we did almost every day. Due to the high water level, the lake requires a little effort to access. Tip: bring water shoes. The two owners, sisters Danielle and Doris, are true hosts. They are helpful and warm-hearted. There is plenty of information available about the surrounding area. The campsite itself has a small shop and a bar/restaurant. For us, this campsite was our "base camp" for day trips to the Prosecco region, to beautiful towns such as Feltre, Bassano del Grappa, or to the Dolomites. This was already our third stay at this campsite. We think it is a wonderful place — we left with a heavy heart and would love to return.

We stayed here for six nights. What a lovely, clean campsite. We were welcomed very warmly and got to choose our own pitch. Everyone was really easy-going. There's a bread-roll service, you can order food to your caravan, tent or motorhome, or enjoy a nice meal (which was delicious, by the way) on the terrace. There's a small bar, a little shop and a tennis court. The facilities are very clean with proper hot water. There are also plenty of clean sinks with hot water for washing up. A real must!!!

A lovely, peaceful spot. We have a front-row pitch with a great view of the lake. Facilities are good. One shower room: 3 showers with a shower curtain. You undress and dress outside of that. I really enjoy it! Nice water points, with a sink, spread across the campsite. A path takes you straight to the lake.
