Cross-country skiing

In the nature of Livigno

In Livigno, cross-country skiing is a way of life: in the past, it was common to get around the valley on skis, and today countless tourists come here for a winter holiday or just a day on the snow. For over 30 years, the great cross-country skiing season has kicked off in Livigno with La Sgambeda, a classic granfondo event that attracts both amateurs and professionals.

Autumn technical ring: cross-country skiing in Livigno starts in October

Enthusiasts know this, and wait until October to come here. It is now a tradition that Livigno anticipates the cross-country skiing season with the opening of the autumn technical ring in October.

Made with snow stored during the summer thanks to the Snowfarm, it allows sports teams to train and cross-country enthusiasts to put on their skis already in the autumn.

  • Are you a sportsman? Are you a team of athletes? Follow the info below to get access to the autumn technical ring

  • Are you looking forward to putting on your skis and using the technical ring? After 12 noon access is open to all, just buy the ticket for 12,50 euros on MYLIVIGNOPASS App

All teams are invited to go to the Aquagranda reception for registration and payment. Upon accreditation, an identification band will be handed out upon payment of a deposit of €100.00.

The "Athlete" rate will be granted

  • to athletes on www.fis-ski.com with cross country disciplines and Active status

  • to Military or National Team athletes

  • to Ski Club athletes

The athlete rate is applied only upon presentation of an identity document and sports card proving membership of the team.

Personnel in charge of monitoring, equipped with appropriate identification clothing, will be present along the track and authorized to verify tickets or season passes. If a skier does not have a valid ticket, they will be required to purchase one at a 100% surcharge. The controllers on the track, during ticket verification, may request the presentation of an ID document to confirm the skier’s municipality of residence.

No gate, just a ticket

The cross-country ski track crosses the entire valley, stretching across the village plain, and it is often the case that you leave your house and are only a few metres from the track, which is why there are no gates or restricted access points. You can access from wherever you want, just validate your ticket along the track, where there are plenty of points where you can scan the QR code and then validate your ticket.

Training and biathlon on the slopes of Livigno

The track in Livigno runs from 1,816 metres in the village to 2,000 metres in the surrounding forests. This is why it is so popular with athletes, who can train here in the high altitude. Another opportunity is offered by the Biathlon Arena equipped with 12 electronic shooting stations, where you can watch national teams in training and, if you wish, attend a beginners' course.
