When the BIKE Festival Garda in Riva (ITA) returns, you know that the European bike season has started. However, the biking paradise of Livigno situated 1,816 meters above sea level is in full swing, preparing everything bikers and visitors could possibly desire this summer!

The season will kick off with the Suzuki Nine Knights (16th-21st June) and in July, a brand new race concept will be set in motion at the Mottolino Bikepark. Red Bull Wide Open will take place on July 11th to 13th – the best gravity riders will come together to decide who-is-who and what-is-what on an exciting and challenging course, unlike no other. All the information about the events will be available at the Livigno – Feel the Alps booth in sunny Riva.
