An efficient free bus service with four different lines operates from 7.30am to 8pm in the resort centre linking all parts of the resort with the main lift bases, and one line links to Trepalle, the closest village. From 9.30am to 4pm the Skilink shuttle runs every 10 minutes between the Mottolino and Valandrea chairlift.
A big attraction of Livigno is the duty-free shopping. As well as huge savings on alcohol and tobacco, there are worthwhile savings to be made on perfumes, cameras, computers and other electronic equipment, and clothing brands. Fuel is around 30 per cent cheaper than in the rest of Italy.
There are several beginner areas on the lower slopes of the ski area. Most of the pistes for intermediates and better are above the treeline, and most of these are undemanding cruises, including some very long runs of almost 1,000m vertical.
There are also 30km of good and varied cross-country tracks.
