Livigno Ski Resort
If you’re looking for snowsure skiing on quiet slopes, excellent Italian food and low tax-free prices, then look no further than the resort of Livigno.
Sitting in a high valley right up by the Swiss border and just over the hills from St Moritz, Livigno deserves better recognition. Its 115km of pistes are very snowsure, with most at well over 2000m and backed up by a comprehensive snowmaking system. They best suit intermediate skiers, but more advanced skiers will also enjoy the freeride options and beginners are well catered for on the gentle slopes at the edge of the valley. The rest is also home to one of the best parks in the Alps – it is no wonder that GB Park&Pipe choose it as their training base for much of the winter.
In town, prices are appreciably lower than at many major resorts (the resort is tax free), especially when you compare it to St Moritz over the border. But you don’t compromise on quality, much of the accommodation is of a high standard, the food is usually excellent and there are some good bars that can become lively on a sunny day – fuelled no doubt by very affordable drinks.
