Location & Getting There
Set within Lombardy's Stelvio National Park, Bormio sits 200 kilometres northeast of Milan in the upper Valtellina region near the Swiss border. The historic town dates back to Roman times, with distinctive medieval architecture surrounding the central Piazza Cavour and ancient thermal baths that have operated continuously for centuries. Unlike purpose-built resorts, Bormio evolved around thermal springs that continue attracting visitors for their therapeutic properties, creating a multidimensional destination that combines skiing with wellness and cultural experiences. The resort's strategic position places it within easy day-trip distance of Livigno and Santa Caterina, accessible via the Alta Valtellina ski pass.

Season Info
The Bormio winter season typically extends from late November through late April, with optimal conditions from December through March. The area's high elevation and predominantly north-facing aspect ensure excellent snow preservation throughout winter. Early season operations concentrate around Bormio 2000 before expanding upward as conditions permit, with the World Cup downhill race traditionally held between Christmas and New Year establishing full operation. March delivers excellent spring skiing with reliable morning conditions and increasingly comfortable temperatures, while April often maintains good coverage on higher slopes, particularly after overnight freezes.
