Gara da li contrada

In the evening, the districts of Livigno put their skis on their feet and take to the slopes to challenge each other in a Nordic skiing competition in the middle of summer on a 1-kilometre track completely covered in snow. The people of Livigno dress in their old-fashioned clothes to ski the kilometre-long track and compete in a friendly and competitive atmosphere to win the race.

The “Gara da li Contrada” takes place on the same course as the 1K Shot, but in the opposite direction.

Find out how snow is stored during the summer thanks to the snowfarming technique.
