Getting to Salò

Salò has no railway; the nearest stations are Desenzano del Garda and Brescia. Arriva's R-Link RL204 runs Desenzano – Padenghe – Raffa – Salò daily from about 7:00 to 23:00, and RL202-1 runs Brescia – Gavardo – Salò – Gargnano every half hour. LN027 continues up the west shore to Gargnano, Limone and Riva del Garda, and Salò is a regular Navigazione Laghi ferry stop.

Ferry: Navigazione Laghi boats stop here, linking Salò with Gardone, Maderno, Gargnano and the upper lake, and with Portese, Sirmione and Desenzano; for a car crossing to the east shore use the Maderno–Torri car ferry nearby.

Parking: The historic centre is a limited traffic zone (ZTL), so leave the car outside it; the town lists the multi-storey car park (autosilo) on Viale Landi and the Piazzale Martiri car park among its parking options.

About Salò

Salò sits at the back of its own gulf on the west shore and feels more like a small city than a resort.
