LIVIGNO SKI HOLIDAYS

Livigno is a remote and high ski holiday resort that boasts ‘Duty Free’ status and an excellent snow fall record. With a resort height of 1815m and the skiing reaching some 1000m above that, Livigno offers snow-sure skiing. The terrain best suits intermediates but there are extensive nursery slopes along the edge of Livigno, although experts will need to go off-piste to remain entertained. Livigno is one of the toughest transfers from regional airports in the entire Alps but in many ways this adds to the appeal, with the resort remaining something of a secret spot until recently. That is now changing and package operators are bringing skiers and boarders into this once internationally unknown resort.

REVIEW RESORT AND WIN

LIVIGNO SKI HOLIDAY INFO

The skiing in Livigno is snow-sure and there are excellent nursery slopes along the edge of the village. There is little for advanced skiers and the lack of tree cover is not ideal in poor weather. The resort is ‘Duty Free’ and has a reputation for offering good value for money. The resort is long and narrow and is a good walk end to end, although the nursery slopes are ideally placed. For families the beginners’ areas are ideally located and extensive, although the lack of trees on the mountain makes it less appealing in poor weather. Transfer times to Livigno are horrendous.
