Lovely tour to Val da li Mina and further to Somp Eira above Livigno and really nice descent to Livigno lake trough forest path behind Monte Crapena. All together around 1000m ascent with beautiful views to Livigno and side valleys.

Val da li Mina

Heaven?!

Pit stop by Cheseira da li Mina




Paths above Livigno



Carosello on the opposite side





Our hunger was infinite

Tricky crossing of snow bridge

Path to the lake trough forest where we met some workers, which were cleaning allready clean path of stones and bumps

They are promoting Piz Orsera with ‘touching the 3000′. Nice walk to check comfort and robustness of my new mountain shoes :)

Piz Palu on Swiss side






Livigno

In the afternoon we checked if they have cold beer in St. Moritz

Around 670km from Kranj (via Verona and Stelvio pass) and we are in Livigno – mountain biking paradise. Cheap gasoline (0,941€), cheap boose (duty free zone), fresh air (Livigno lies on altitude 1800m) and mountain roads to die for.

Approaching Stelvio pass (altitude 2757m)

Val Federia was our first day tour with about 1200m ascent through beautiful Federia valley to Carosello 3000, where lazy ones can take a cable car
