How to ski in Bormio
Bormio sits at 1 225 metres, and the lowest lifts whisk you up into a nursery area with wide, gentle pistes that suit beginners and families well. The blue runs, which make up 30 per cent of the piste map, are grouped close to the village, so you can head straight from your accommodation to the lift station without crossing any harder terrain.
The higher you go, the steeper it gets. The red pistes, 35 per cent of the network, spread across the middle sections, while the black runs, 25 per cent, lie in the upper part towards the summit at 3 012 metres. Here the vertical drop on the longest continuous stretch is 1 787 metres, something your legs will notice after just a few turns.
The network of 14 lifts and a total of 50 kilometres of piste links up so well that you can work your way around the whole ski area in a day without having to return to the village unnecessarily. The lower sections are most easily reached straight from Bormio, while the upper sectors require a couple of lift changes for anyone wanting to reach the top.
A practical tip: ski the steep summit sections in the morning before the sun softens the snow, and head down to the lower blue pistes when queues build up at the mid-mountain lifts in the middle of the day.
