Bormio Ski closed. Now it's time for Bormio Bike

Bormio Ski officially closed yesterday, on Sunday April 10, 2016 after 128 ski days.

The winter season started in the worst way possible when, due to a lack of snow, we were forced to a one week postponement (from November 28 to December 5). The difficult start was just the forerunner of a whole more complicated winter during which we had very few snowfalls.

Only eight snowfalls in this season and just one really abundant: the one on March 6 when 80 cm of fresh snow fell in Bormio 3000. Data seems even more discouraging if we compare it with the season 2013/2014 when the snowfalls were seventeen.

Despite the bad weather conditions, the commitment of our staff has been constant throughout the whole winter: snowmakers, snowgroomers and slopes staff have given their best to make you ski in perfect snowy slopes.

The next winter season will begin on December 3, 2016 and finish on April 25, 2017 for a total of 144 ski days.

Bormio Ski closed to make room for Bormio Bike!

With Bormio Ski closed the spotlight is all for Bormio Bike, the gravity park of Bormio whose opening is scheduled for June 24, 2016.

Bormio Bike is the ultimate gravity park with a great variety of trails: 5 downhill trails, 1 freeride track and over 50 km of suggested cross country trails. The bike park has a vertical drop of 1800 meters which makes it an unbelievable mtb ride.

On June 25-26, 2016 Bormio Bike will host Round #3 of Gravitalia: a spectacular downhill race and a wonderful way to launch the summer season of Bormio.

Thank you all for choosing us and see you soon!
