Gita in bici di un giorno da Livigno a Bormio

Get ready for an epic ride! Starting in the alpine resort town of Livigno—famous for its tax-free shopping and world-class skiing—you’ll pedal south through some truly jaw-dropping scenery. Immediately, you’ll notice the clean mountain air and the dramatic mountain backdrop. The route climbs steadily, with over 1,000 meters of ascent, peaking at about 2,327 meters—so bring your legs and your camera. The payoff? A massive descent of over 1,600 meters as you swoop towards Bormio.

The surfaces are a mix: paved and asphalt sections make up about 87%, but you’ll also tackle stretches of gravel and some rougher ground (expect a bit of adventure!). The way is split between paths, cycleways, and the occasional tranquil road, almost entirely avoiding busy traffic.

Your destination, Bormio, is a historic spa town famed for its thermal baths and as a gateway to iconic Alpine passes like the Stelvio. After all that climbing and descending, treat yourself to a soak—you’ve earned it!
