    Hi all,

    Myself and the GF are travelling to nothern Italy next month, landing in Milan and hiring a camper van for about 8 days... I'm hoping to travel to Verona and onto Venice from Milan, and hit Lake Garda along the way... but is there anywhere else I should look into going?

    What about a different return journey back from Venice? Should I head back to Milan by the north or south from Venice? Open to anything really, I've yet to start doing my own research about the different areas so any starting tips much appreciated!

    Thanks all

    With ViaMichelin maps www.viamichelin.co.uk you can see the Autostrada structure. Tha Autostrada A4 from Milan to Venice tangents Verona.

    An interesting town is Padua (Padova). St. Anthony is its patron saint.
    You could take the A13 Autostrada from Venice to Bologna 160 km, returning to Milan on the A1. It is said to be great. Admittedly I only bypassed it enroute to Florence.

    The few towns I know near Lake Garda are Trento and Roverto. They are on the A22 Autostrada. They are both north of the lake.

    There is plenty to see and do in Venice. I stayed near Jessolo and go the beach when it was sunny. If rain was forecasted I'd get the ferry to Venice, visit the churches and the old prison.

    Verona is also super.
    Milan is great. There is loads to see there. Outside of Milan there is Lake Como.

    IMHO eight days is little time to see Milan, Lake Garda, Verona and Venice.
