Onnem, well, that certainly suggests that Livigno is a great choice THIS late season.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

They had very good last few seasons. Nice place, but shame they don't expand,it is fairly small and isoleted place and a few new runs would help.

I dont think they need to, their business model seems to work just fine, without being a mega resort.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Bones, they tried to build another 2 chairs with runs on the other side of Mottolino but did not get the permission I think.....

Tom W, it's a bit of a marmite resort especially for the mile munchers, but is one of the best places to go for a holiday with skiing . . . Rather than just a ski holiday.

Yeah, it's a shame they don't just put a lift on the slopes opposite Federia.
They could easily add 30 km's of slopes with just 1 well-placed lift on this slope

Obviously it can't be this good every single season. And yes, they have had seasons where mid-april the valley descent would be a line of toothpaste as well.
But it really strikes me they have had extremely good conditions consistently, at least the last 3-4 seasons.
Not only massive snowdepths top-till-bottom, but also perfectly prepared slopes over 3 football fields wide.

EDIT - just saw this article http://www.dovesciare.it/news/17/04/2014/livigno-%E2%80%93-sci-senza-fine-carosello-aperto-fino-al-15-maggio
Normally they remain open till may 1st. Due to excellent snow coverage they decided to extend opening of the Carosello side till may 15th.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

We went there late April a couple of years ago - by afternoon the valley bottom was green everywhere between the runs - but it was white every morning. We got to ski fresh powder higher up every morning, and it was really cheap - 6 day lift passes were free with an apartment costing €690 for the week! Best late season skiing we have had, and far and away the cheapest.
