ENJOY AN ACTIVE WINTER IN LIVIGNO

Whoever said that this new wave of snowfalls and low temperatures only meant duvets and spending days at home waiting for summer?The snow in Livigno is still soft and the slopes are waiting for anyone who enjoys being active and is ready to enjoy an adrenaline-packed holiday.

Livigno knows how to offer visitors the very best of the natural beauty of the area and, even with the arrival of the icy Buran wind, offers perfect opportunities for guests to have fun during their snow-filled holiday.

The homeland of winter sports, Livigno is the perfect destination for enjoying a holiday in nature, and Little Tibet, as this area is also known, offers visitors the opportunity to experiment with the exciting experience of cycling on the snow.

For those unable to give up biking, even during winter, Fat Bikes are the ideal solution for pedalling in complete freedom along the over 20km of available routes covered in a soft white blanket of snow. A wide range of solutions are on offer, so visitors can enjoy the unique landscape firsthand and discover the resort on a fat bike fitted with oversized tyres. The most original proposal has been crafted by the Livigno MTB guides, whose Fat Bike Night Ride give bikers the opportunity to discover Val Federia in the moonlight. Every Tuesday as of 6.30p.m. amidst wild woods and snowy stretches, the itinerary leads bikers along a stretch of two kilometres uphill to reach a traditional mountain chalet. There, in the warm atmosphere and typical local welcome, a delicious dinner prepared using local products will warm the very soul of the sportspeople taking part. Accompanied by an expert guide and with the opportunity of choosing to go on the excursion on a normal fat bike or one with assisted pedalling, the return to the village couldn’t be more exciting: a breathtaking descent guarantees a pure adrenaline rush every metre of the way back.

 

The most adventurous can also let themselves be seduced by the charm of an experience which will take their breath away. Indeed, there are many programmes of activities organised for the winter season, such as paragliding, panoramic flights, car races and climbing on the ice. Livigno offers anyone wishing to discover the area from a difference perspective a wide range of exciting opportunities to be enchanted, amidst adrenaline rushes and sheer wonder. Indeed, it is no chance that Little Tibet is one of the flagship destinations for freeriding and the Heliski experience. For a skier, nothing nella beats being the first person to mark out tracks on a slope of fresh snow. For this reason, the boldest sportspeople choose to arrive at the immaculate mountain peaks by helicopter and then literally launch themselves along the descent of fresh snow far from the crowds and main ski lift areas. Livigno offers a wide assortment of backcountry itineraries for freeriders who are hungry for adrenaline and enables them to create the tailor-made stay they want, planning one or more days through to weeklong Freeride packages in the company of a UIAGM alpine guide.

 

And Livigno offers not only extreme adventures but the opportunity to relax, too.
And what could be more relaxing than enjoying the sight of a soft, white snowfall from one of the areas of the Aquagranda Active You centre? Thanks to the large windows and architecture featuring all the typical elements of mountain tradition, the internal spaces merge perfectly with the surrounding landscape, offering a truly regenerating experience. Here, thanks to the Fitness&Pool, Slide&Fun area, Wellness&Relax and a number of bars and restaurants, guests of all ages will find the perfect place to enjoy moments of fun and wellbeing in one of the most beautiful settings in Livigno.
In March, the opportunity for fully enjoying the services of one of the largest water centres in Europe is International Women’s Day.
