| Hmm, you might have trouble with snow on the quieter passes this time of year.
First time we went to Northern Italy we headed for Lake Lucern via Contrexeville down the eastern side of France. Then we headed through the alps via oberal, ferka and some other pass I forget the name of.
We stayed at the top end of lake Garda. This is 45mins north of Verona, but still in the hills.
I can't help you on the hotel front, as we stayed in hotels that had been prebooked. At a push though I could probably find out the names of the hotels (all were biker friendly).
We've done several trips now through the alps, but normally don't go before June time, and try to avoid the main routes to avoid the traffic. Trouble is this time of year those roads might not be the best to travel on.
Cheers,
John. |
