ITALY & SWISS MTB
BIKE WEEK
ABOUT THE TOUR
Livigno has many names.
“Queen of the mountain bike” “The international capital for elite mountain bikers”
Livigno, considered to be one of the world capitals for mountain-biking, offers trails, structures and services suited to any kind of biker. Livigno boasts over 3200km of routes mapped out using a GPS system for the Bike Tours&Track, where visitors can venture out accompanied by expert bike guides, professional instructors for freeride, downhill and cross country and, why not, e-bike and fat bike, too. Those of our visitors who choose to remain in the village can pedal along a cycle lane equipped with a bike service, or practice in the bike skill centre.
We never get bored of riding here. But it’s nice to change the scenery for a day or two. So we take a short ride to Switzerland and find some more great trails around St. Moritz.

VIDEO OF OUR RIDE
WHAT TO EXPECT
Expect the unexpected. Great riding and even better nature!
Every day a new adventure! We start around 9am every day and ride till 3 or 4pm. Single trails lead us on different peaks and even countries offering a lot around every corner. Great downhill paths that often lead through bike parks. Depending on the ability on some tours we split in to two groups. One advanced and one easier group. Advanced group will do more km and altitude but the easier group want be left out of a great experience it will just cover different terrain.
After riding we take a break for a few hours to take a shower, lunch and just rest or explore the beautiful town of Livigno. Usually we all hang out at the evening grilling or just drinking a beer or two while our main guide Matej briefs us about the next day’s tour.
The best possible way to spend a week! Active vacation of your dreams! Every serious mountain biker’s bucket list.
