We walked up here on Christmas Day. It is not too long a walk, takes about 20 minutes from the town centre of Riva, but it is steep. It is worth it as the views from the bastion are lovely.

The route is well marked (brown "heritage" signs) close to the circle. The path is paved/concrete and not very exhausting bringing you through a lush area. (Some guys naturally had to sprint up...). The Bastion itself is interesting but not that impressive since most of...More

Worth the effort if you can manage the climb up the zig-zagging footpath. Free entry and a reasonably priced café when you get there. Recommend an early start before the day warms up!

Really recommend this visit although it is a bit of a climb but there are seats to have a wee rest but it's worth it and there's a lovely coffee shop at the top and the views are stunning

It’s a bit of a hike up but well worth it when you get to the top. There is a lovely place to have a drink at the Bastionand the views are spectacular of the lake and surrounding area

A gentle easy climb to the Bastion which was small but quite well preserved with a lovely restaurant by the side and fantastic views of Riva and the lake.

It was a very hard walk up to it for a very unfit person like me but well worth the effort. A cafe at the top and fantastic views.
