Provincial nature reserve
Mount Brione rises isolated in the middle of the alluvial plain of the Sarca river, right next to Lake Garda, and separates the two towns of Riva del Garda and Torbole.
Its naturalistic interest lies mainly in its flora, which numbers an incredibly high number of species (there could be as many as 500, according to some botanists) in a relatively small area.
The Reserve is also a Special Area of Conservation and is one of the protected areas that make up the Sarca River Park.
