Livigno is a beginner's dream with its wide, sun-kissed nursery slopes located just next to town. Once you've built up some confidence, the Degli Amanti offers a gentle blue run with scenic mountain vistas. The west side of the valley also adds to the mix with three beginner zones on mild slopes, making it easy for newbies to progress.

Intermediate skiers will find their groove in Livigno, thanks to a wealth of red runs that start from lofty peaks and end in the town below. The Costaccia pistes are your go-to for tree-lined adventures, while the Carosello area offers expansive, high-altitude terrains. Areas like Mt. Sponda and Carosello 3000 add to the list with long, inviting red runs.

Though Livigno primarily serves beginner and intermediate levels, experts have their corners of excitement too. Della Neve peak offers a few thrilling black runs, and the Carosello 3000 becomes a powder playground after fresh snow. Additional advanced terrains, such as the Giorgio Rocca trail and Mt. Delle Neve, offer steeper runs and freeriding opportunities, best explored with a local guide.

Livigno is a big name in the snowboarding world, boasting four diverse snow parks that cater to all skill levels. The flagship Mottolino snow park has hosted professional competitions and offers everything from beginner courses to pro-level jumps. Snowboarders can also get their fix at the Snowpark Amerikan, Livigno Park Carosello 3000, and Mottolino with its superpipe and halfpipe features.

Livigno doesn't disappoint when it comes to off-piste options, particularly on the Mottolino side. The slopes' high altitude and northeast orientation create prime conditions for off-piste runs. Teaming up with a local guide opens up a plethora of terrains that await your tracks.

Livigno is a hit for families, offering slopes and activities to keep the little ones busy and safe. The Lupigno Kindergarten in the pedestrian center keeps kids entertained while parents explore the slopes or shops. Beyond skiing, families can venture into other winter activities like snowshoeing, bobsledding, and ice skating. If you need a break from the cold, the Aquagranda wellness center is more than just a pool—it's a warm retreat with slides and relaxation zones. Finally, a stroll through the pedestrian area offers family-friendly dining and shopping, making Livigno an all-around win for families.

Livigno is the life of the après ski party, featuring a range of bars that dial up the fun as the sun goes down. Duty-free drinking makes it easier on the wallet, so places like Marco's Pub and Tea del Vidal are buzzing. For the full piste-side party experience, head to Stalet at the base of the Carosello 3000 gondola. Those looking for cozy vibes can nestle around fire pits at Camanel Di Planon, while night owls won't want to miss the energetic scene at Miky's Disco Club or Bivio Club.
