Not just for bikers

The Bike Pass Free is not only for bikers,  it’s also for those people who either just want to enjoy the village and it’s river walks, or maybe just want to go to the top of the mountain for some spectacular views of the Alps, the pass can be replaced by an entrance to the Slide & Fun area of Aquagranda,  a free entrance ticket to Larix Park and a booklet of 1/3 ascents with the lifts of Mottolino, Carosello and Sitas to enjoy the charm of the peaks also without a bike*.Livigno also offers many Bike Friendly hotels that offer storage and maintenance areas as well as laundry facilities.

 

Mottolino Fun Mountain

Mottolino is one of the first bike parks in Europe, an undisputed paradise for downhill and freeride lovers. Built in 2005 for the MTB World Championships  it offers 14 trails suitable for everyone divided into difficulty levels.

6 are the most technical trails, reserved for expert and pro riders, while another 8, the medium-easy ones, also include flowtrails and are suitable for beginners.

Immersed in the woods, with its suspended bridges and wooden walkways, there is the North Shore area, while the Slopestyle Line and Drops Area are dedicated to more experienced bikers and allow you to test your jumping skills.

For those who want to test themselves even if they are beginners or want to challenge themselves by exceeding their limits, there is the inflatable bag, to learn new techniques and aerial evolutions.
