Livigno is awesome and well presented, with friendly helpful locals, cheap well furb'd restaurants - stone baked pizzas as low as 4euros, steak 12euros, pint 3euros!! Duty-Free shopping too - though don't be fooled, some shops were much more expensive than the UK! Runs were great for all standards, nice wide gradual (fairly quiet) runs for beginners up to more challenging quieter runs for the advanced boarder.
Review by Estelle Bernardi from Grevenmacher on Monday Oct 25th. Visited Livigno in march 2010 as family
The resort itself is very cheap, both food and alcohol. The food in Marco's is great but there are plenty of great restaurants dotted around the village. There are plenty of wee runs where you can *** in of piste for a bit and there are now 2 bordercross parks at either side of the mountain as well as the excellent terrain parks, complete with airbags. Instructors are very helpful, attentive and most importantly, encouraging and enthusiastic. All in all, once you get over the crippling transfer time from the airport, about 4 1/2 hours, you'll have a fantastic time.

Livigno is een klein, gezellig gebied. Ideaal voor een gezin. Bijzonder gezellig dorpje, zonder overdreven apres-ski zoals in Oostenrijk. Zeer vriendelijke mensen daar. Het skigebied is sneeuwzeker, het wordt ook wel aangeduid met Picollo-Tibet. Vooral voor beginners en gevorderden een prima plek. Kilometerwreters zoeken beter een ander gebied. Ongelooflijke tax-free shopping mogelijkheden bijv. sterke drank, parfum, benzine, maar ook levensmiddelen. Tips: Daphne´s Irish Pub en de bar van hotel Alpina. Lokaal drankje: bombardino (hete whisky met advocaat en slagroom voor 3 euro).

Skiing was limited for us - we skied every run by 2nd day lunchtime! However, this would be a fab resort for beginners with wide open runs well groomed. The "black" runs there would get a dark blue in most French resorts! Sun shone every day which was nice but more snow was needed by end of week. still very well maintained though. A few of the runs need some more thought as there are a number of bottlenecks where large queues build up although generally the lifts are not bad for queuing. We had a day trip to St Moritz- well worth it to see how the other half live! A lot more skiing too. Lots of shops in Livigno but most sell same stuff- mainly perfume, fags, booze or designer cloth
Review by Simon Canter from Luxembourg on Thursday Mar 6th. Visited Livigno in february 2008 as family
Livigno is voor mij het beste skigebied van Italië. Het dal heeft een idieaal microklimaat : koud, droog en zonnig. Dan zou je zeggen dat het niet sneeuwzeker is, maar dit komt door het zeldzaam lang komdal waar de wolken bij zware sneeuwval blijven hangen. Er valt zo veel sneeuw tegelijkertijd. De dalafdalingen zijn tussen de bossen. De pistes liggen op de west - ,de oost - en de noordhelling dus ski je altijd in de zon (een kleurtje krijg je hier altijd) en toch verdwijnt de sneeuw traag. De skipistes zijn tegen de helling geplakt en smal zoals in Oostenrijk (en soms in de Dolomieten). Brede pistes van tientallen meters breed soms wel meer dan 100 m. De pistes zijn meestal licht rood tot m
