Team building in Sirmione between lake, golf and hills
Lake Garda is one of the most effective settings for a corporate programme, but organising team building in Sirmione means dealing with limited space and restricted access. Garda Hotel San Vigilio Golf concentrates a golf course, a sports centre, meeting rooms, a restaurant and accommodation within 110 hectares, minutes from the peninsula.
Sailing on the lake, golf and sporting challenges
Team sailing takes place aboard Dolphin81 sailing boats on Lake Garda, one of the most renowned sailing waters in Europe thanks to its reliable winds, the Peler in the morning and the Ora in the afternoon. Splitting a group across several boats is one of the most direct ways of working on coordination and trust.
The golf activities are led by the San Vigilio Golf Academy professionals and require no previous experience: technique introductions, accuracy contests, team tournaments across the four courses. The sports centre adds two tennis courts, a five-a-side pitch and a sand beach volleyball court.
Among the less conventional options are a treasure hunt through the moraine hills aboard vintage sports cars and helicopter excursions from the resort's own helipad, with views over the lake and the peninsula.
These are activities that team building in Sirmione hosted in a hotel function room cannot include, because they call for open space and dedicated sports facilities.
Cooking, tastings and sustainability
The cooking class takes the group behind the stoves around a menu everyone can manage, fresh pasta included, and finishes at the table with the dishes prepared and matched to local wines. The cocktail challenge splits participants into teams competing for the best alcoholic and alcohol-free drink, judged by professional bartenders.
Tastings showcase local produce: four wines served with breadsticks, cured meats and cheeses, with the Lugana grown on the hills between the peninsula and Desenzano taking centre stage. Alternatively there is a rum and cigar tasting, well suited to an after-dinner gathering.
Tree planting is the most recent addition: guided by specialists, participants put new plants into the ground within the resort park. It combines collaboration with sustainability and leaves a tangible, visible result, useful for internal communication too.
Every team building programme in Sirmione is built with the client, combining two or three activities according to duration, season and the profile of the group. Sailing depends on conditions on the water, so an indoor alternative is always agreed in advance as a fallback.
Working sessions and activities without transfers
The resort is in Pozzolengo, a short distance from the peninsula and the motorway exit on the A4. Five meeting rooms from 80 to 250 square metres allow working sessions and experiential activities to alternate without moving the group, while bedrooms, apartments and the restaurant make multi-day residential programmes possible. Team building in Sirmione organised this way removes the dead time between one stage and the next.
