About Ledro
Ledro is a mountain valley just west of Riva, reached through the tunnel on the SS240 or, for walkers and cyclists, up the old Ponale road carved into the cliff. The municipality was formed in 2010 from the villages around the lake and along the valley: Molina, Pieve, Mezzolago, Bezzecca, Tiarno and others.
