Autumn Weekend in Livigno

Autumn Weekend in Livigno

Like every year, when September arrives, Livigno prepares to welcome autumn. A new season full of colours, experiences and emotions to be experienced in the romantic Alpine atmosphere.

The perfect setting to escape the routine and take a breath of fresh air, breathing in all the magic that only the mountains can offer. Autumn is a really effervescent period, full of interesting initiatives and experiences to be enjoyed at high altitude, such as the Alpen Fest, which will be held in a few days. Let's see what this is all about!

Alpen Fest Livigno 2022 | 17 - 18 September 2022

As tradition dictates, Livigno will once again this year celebrate the return of the cattle from the mountains and everything related to ancient Valtellina customs during the two-day Alpen Fest: 17 and 18 September!

This is an original event dedicated to transhumance and agriculture, with the characteristic parade of shepherds and animals, festively decorated with garlands of flowers and cowbells, along the streets of the village.

Below you will find the full programme of the festival!
