How these numbers are calculated
  • Powder day — at least 6in of new snow in 24 hours.
  • Bluebird day — sunshine for at least 60% of daylight, following at least 4in of snow over the previous 3 days.
  • Rain day — at least 0.04in of rain (not snow) at this elevation.
  • Skiable day — at least 12in of settled snow on the ground.
  • Snow depth is modelled from Open-Meteo / ERA5 reanalysis at 7,569ft, not measured at the resort. Use it to compare seasons and resorts; use the resort's own report for today's conditions.

Livigno snow record in detail

How much snow does Livigno get?

Livigno averages 126in of snowfall over a full season, measured from November to May across the last 10 winters. That is about average: more snow than 57% of 40 resorts we have analysed the same way, where the median season brings 111in.

Season to season the spread is wide. The best of the last 10 winters was 2023/24 with 197in, and the leanest was 2025/26 with 74in — a difference of 123in between a good year and a poor one. The most recent complete season, 2025/26, delivered 74in.

November is reliably the snowiest month, averaging 23in and 10 days with fresh snow.

How deep does the snow get at Livigno?

Snowfall totals flatter resorts that lose their snow quickly, so the more useful number is how deep the settled base actually gets. At Livigno the snowpack peaks at an average of 63in each season. That is well above average, deeper than 85% of 40 resorts we have analysed the same way, against a median peak of 33in.

The base is deepest in March, averaging 50in through the month and topping out around 56in in a typical year.

How many powder days does Livigno get?

Counting any day that delivers at least 6in of new snow, Livigno averages 3 powder days a season. That is above average, more powder days than 60% of 40 resorts we have analysed the same way, where the median is 2 a season.

November has the most, 0.7 on average.

How often does Livigno get bluebird days?

Livigno averages 12 bluebird days a season — days of sunshine for at least 60% of daylight after 4in or more of fresh snow. That is above average, more than 63% of 40 resorts we have analysed the same way, against a median of 10.

November is the best month for it, averaging 2.5 bluebird days and 6.1 hours of sunshine a day.

Does it rain at Livigno?

At mid-mountain Livigno sees an average of 9 days a season with 0.04in or more of rain rather than snow. That is well below average: 8% of the 40 other resorts we have analysed the same way see fewer wet days, against a median of 32.

May is the wettest month of the season, with 7.5 rain days and 1in on average.

When is the best time to ski or board Livigno, and when does the season end?

Livigno typically holds at least 12in of settled snow from around November 5 through to May 30, which works out at roughly 208 days of skiable cover in an average year. 185 of those fall inside the November to May season. On season length that is well above average compared with the 40 other resorts we have analysed the same way.

For the deepest base, go in March; for the most new snow, November; for fresh snow with sunshine, November.

Comparisons use 40 resorts across 18 countries, each measured over 5 recent seasons at mid-mountain height. Glaciated locations, where the model never melts the snow out, are excluded. Figures for Livigno are taken at 7,569ft. Corpus last rebuilt September 2, 2026.
