Resort Overview
Livigno delivers 115 kilometres of varied skiing across two principal mountains—Carosello 3000 and Mottolino—with elevations ranging from 1,815 to 2,800 metres in Lombardy's High Valtellina. The resort combines extensive intermediate terrain with dedicated beginner zones and challenging advanced sectors, including the famous Giorgio Rocca black run. Modern snowmaking systems cover 70% of all marked runs, complementing natural snowfall that averages 5 metres annually thanks to the valley's unique geographical position. Beyond groomed slopes, Livigno offers exceptional freeride opportunities with accessible off-piste terrain and multiple snow parks including the Mottolino Snowpark, consistently rated among Europe's best freestyle venues.

Location & Getting There
Positioned in Lombardy's northern extremity near the Swiss border, Livigno sits 200 kilometres northeast of Milan within a high-altitude valley that runs perpendicular to the main Alpine ridge. This distinctive geographical location creates both amazing snow conditions and a unique tax-free status that makes shopping almost as popular as skiing. The 12-kilometre-long resort village features traditional Alpine architecture with wooden chalets housing excellent restaurants and duty-free shops along the pedestrian-friendly centre. Despite its remote mountain setting, Livigno offers excellent accessibility via mountain passes from Switzerland and Italy, with the nearest airports at Innsbruck (180km), Milan (200km), and Zurich (210km).
