So do you live in the resort then?

No. :?:

Both me OH had helmets this year for the first time. No diff in wearing a hat, prob better. Personal opinion, but I can't see the argument for not wearing one.

No you're right obv :roll:

I do, thats why I thought they were robbing gits, just for the novelty of a slide.

Not in Livigno its not.

Was in there last week. Nice slide but 24 euro for 2 pints of Guiness and 2 G&Ts. Robbing %£$&ards.

Bluemoon,

I went to Livigno, Italy for my first ski trip two years ago (been back since and going again in 2 weeks). I was a complete novice when I went, one trip to dry slope before that was it, my wife had skied once before but at school and both my children were new to it, aged 9 and 14 at the time.

There are a number of good nursery slopes, which are all easy to access via the free buses. You can also go to the top of the mountains and come back down on the lifts if you dont fancy skiing down when you get there, we did this a few times. Had group lessons which weree fine.

The village is between two mountains, and has plenty of shops, bars and restaurants. Some designer shops to, supposed to be duty free but with the value of the euro at the moment prob no cheaper than here. One lady in our party didn't ski after the first day and found enough to do during the week.

The only negative would be the transfer time prob 4-5 hours I think although we go on a coach all the way anyway.
