Livigno - snow and shopping paradise!

Livigno - snow and shopping paradise!

Livigno is located on the sun-drenched side of the Lombardy Alps, not far from St. Moritz. The popular resort is situated at a snow-sure 1,816 m, and hosts several international competitions; it is also known across its borders as a duty-free shopping paradise. The district Trepalle (1,900-2,250 m) is the highest permanently inhabited settlement in Europe. Traditional wooden houses dot the village, and the resorts location on the southern side of the Alps ensures that the valley is drenched with sun. The broad pistes are always well prepared, and the gigantic snowpark offers boarders all that their hearts desire. After a day of skiing, relax in one of the cosy mountain lodges for a bit of apres ski or look around some of the duty-free shops and enjoy tax-free shopping. In Livigno's duty-free zone, you'll be able to purchase not just perfume, alcohol and cigarettes (with restrictions on export), but also clothes, watches, cameras, and petrol at up to 40% savings! Prices are also reasonable near the slopes, meaning one thing: More holiday for less money!
