Bormio Skigebiet Guide

We've been here twice now: late January 2018 and late March 2019. On both occasions, we've had a great time. The main mountain in Bormio is good for two or three days and day trips to Santa Caterina and Livigno add to the overall enjoyment. Bormio's second mountain, Le Motte, is a real hidden gem; nice, fast blue and red runs down through the trees with very few people around getting in your way. We stayed at Hotel Eden in 2018 and Hotel Rezia in 2019. Both hotels were superb and excellent value for money; Hotel Rezia just edged it for the amount of space available within the hotel, but we also enjoyed the modern design at Hotel Eden. Both the Keller steak house and the restaurant under the Sunrise pub provided us with top quality, good value dining and the Clem Pub is a great place to enjoy a few beers each evening either side of dinner. Special mention goes to the ski hire shop 'OK GO' opposite the main lift station. The lady who runs it is incredibly polite, friendly and efficient and we were provided with ski lockers in which to leave our skis at the end of each day. The lift pass allows you to ski in Livigno and Santa Caterina (it's pretty easy to get to both if you've hired a car from the airport). The town of Bormio is very attractive to walk around in the evening. Overall, a top quality ski destination at half the price of similar resorts in France or Switzerland.
