Activities, sports and excursions in winter in Bormio
Fun in the snow, between legendary slopes and exciting excursion
Winter in Bormio is not just snow, it is pure magic that turns every corner into a living postcard. Here, where the Rhaetian Alps are dressed in white from December to April, every day offers different emotions: it is certainly not the usual mountain winter, but a snow paradise for a perfect skiing holiday in Alta Valtellina!
Ski mountaineering champion
Get ready to experience the thrill of skiing down the slopes that have made Alpine skiing history. The legendary Stelvio slope, theatre of numerous World Cup races and the next Winter Olympic Games in 2026, offers a breathtaking descent with a difference in altitude of 986 metres! The Bormio Skiarea is famous precisely for its technical pistes and significant difference in altitude. In addition, with the Bormio Skipass you can ski on the Santa Caterina Valfurva and Cima Piazzi-San Colombano lifts, for a total of 110 km of pistes and 36 lifts for all tastes!
Snowshoeing and beaten path
If you like walking even in winter, here you will find marked trails accessible on foot or with snowshoes. Some start a few minutes from the centre, others can be reached by cable car. Ideal for those who prefer the silence of the mountains to skiing and like to reach one of the open refuges for a warm break.
Dog sledding and sled dog adventure
A few kilometres from Bormio, Siberian huskies and Alaskan malamutes take you on an adventure that tastes of Alaska in the heart of the Alps. Sleigh rides through forests and clearings where time seems to stand still. Riding your own wetsuit is a primitive emotion that reconnects you with the wildest nature: you will love this fantastic atmosphere!
Cross-country skiing amidst forests and Alpine panorama
The 60 km of cross-country trails wind their way through snow-covered larches and clearings that seem to be painted. TheStelvio National Park loop offers tracks where the silence is broken only by the glide of skis on fresh snow, and the illuminated tracks allow skiing even at sunset, when the peaks are tinged pink, or at night. A true spectacle!
