Bormio will inaugurate the new snow season starting from Saturday November 29. The whole opening weekend will be fired up by the Df Sport Specialist village, taking place at 2,500 meters of altitude, with the possibility for everyone to test the new snowboards 2014/2015.
Only the top part of the ski area will be open, from 3,000 to 2,500 meters. The slopes at the top will sum up a skiable surface of 500,000 square meters and a total length of 5 km. The snow conditions in Bormio 3000 are very good thanks to the copious amount of snow registered on November 6 and 17. Below altitude 2,500 meters you will most likely be able to ski only from next weekend when the temperatures - since now widely above season averages - will return to their standard and Bormio Ski's powerful snow making system - which counts 300 snow point, 190 fixed guns and 50 mobiles - will get back to work.
Lifts open: cableway Bormio-Bormio 2000, cablecar Bormio 2000-Cima Bianca, chairlift Valbella-3000 and chairlift Bormio 2000-Cimino (this one will stay open only to take skiers to the top and take them down to Bormio 2000).
The several mountain huts located on the ski area and their excellent traditional food will be open as open will be the ski schools of Bormio and the sports gear rentals to best complete the snow offer of our resort.
The season 2014/2015 is looking full of events, some of them are still top secret projects which will be revealed in the next few weeks. We'd like to remind you that registrations to the amateur ski race Peak to Creek have already been open; the excitement for the endless ski run is still authentic and lively more than ever: so far we've received hundreds of registrations already!
Also, we'd like to inform you that the cost for a daily ski pass in Bormio will only be € 23. The offer - Promo Start - will be available until December 24. The price is almost halved compared to high season's fares.
The beginning of the season coincides with another super offer of the month, the “Skipass Free“! By booking a four night stay in hotel or apartment you will be skiing totally for free!

See you soon! 😉
