Bormio Ski Resort Guide
Bormio is an ancient spa town that nestles in the mountain and is full of rustic charm. The mountain has almost 50km of piste but your pass also covers the nearby ski resorts of Santa Caterina and Valdidentro. Both are linked by a ski bus. The main hill at Bormio has a good mix of open runs at the top and tree lined pistes towards the base. The slopes at Bormiao are aimed at intermediate level but there are some beginner runs too. Experts may become bored as there is little in the way of challenging terrain save the top-to-bottom downhill run. Off the mountain Bormio is rustic, streets are cobbled and there is an air of being transported back in time. Unfortunately, much of the accommodation is outside the centre but it is easy enough to get back in to visit the odd bar or two. If your muscles ache, try heading to the ancient roman baths.

Visitor Reviews of Bormio
sergio gracia from Spain writes:
Mi mujer y yo estuvimos en Marzo de 2007. Había nevado dos dias antes y la nieve estaba formidable. Al ir entre semana hubo muy poca afluencia de esquiadores por lo que era bajar y cojer el remonte. Esquiamos tambien en Santa Caterina , Livigno y San Colombano por su proximidad. La amplitud de las pistas y los paisajes son de lo mejor, aunque su verdadero activo está en el ambiente clásico y pulcro del pueblo y en su gente. Sin duda volveremos.
