Those of you who are downhill mountain bike enthusiasts will find a true playground at the Mottolino Bike Park – that can be easily reached on foot from our bike hotel in Livigno – because, inside you will find many trails and useful services.
First of all, in order to find your way around the Mottolino Bike Park, you need to identify trails and activities that you will enjoy, depending on your level of technical and physical preparation. For everyone, also for those who choose to dedicate themselves to pure relaxation and going for walks, the Mottolino cable car reaches a height of up to 2,400 metres and that’s where the adventure starts!
On the several red trails in the Mottolino Bike Park, you will be able to experience the thrilling characteristics of each trail by whizzing down the mountain riding your MTB: fast downhill slopes in the woods, tree roots, paths that become narrower and jumps make these trails exciting, without them being too demanding.
The black trails in the Mottolino Bike Park – are recommended only for those who have consolidated experience as a biker and in downhill mountain bike racing – these overwhelm athletes with a torrent of emotions including moments where technique and physical preparation are essential requirements in order to face extremely steep upward slopes, passages over stones, with narrow slippery downward paths and dangerous downhill slopes through the woods.
Inside the Mottolino Bike Park you will also find a dedicated refreshment area, a true high-altitude shelter, the name of which already makes your mouth water. Moreover, among the recommended activities there is also an area used for jumps that is fully equipped with beaten earth trampolines as well as a trail consisting of suspension bridges and wooden runways under the first stretch of the Mottolino cable car line. Naturally, there are also specific courses for those who are still not used to practicing this adventurous sport.
The thrills of the most demanding trails can also be experienced during the most spectacular MTB events in the Valtellina area: in particular, there are two legendary summer events where the manoeuvres and the mastery of the best riders in the world can be seen.
The Red Bull Wide Open in Livigno is one of the few MTB events that succeeds in combining techniques such as downhill, freeride and 4x racing in a rush of pure adrenalin for both sportspeople and spectators.
The Nine Knight MTB in Livigno is an eagerly-awaited event both by sportspeople as well as by video-makers, considering that the ability to capture the jumps and the stunts performed by the Nine knights of the Mountain Bike world is part of the competition.

"Very convenient for the slopes and with pleasant public areas and great swimming pool/spa/sauna, this hotel was a great base for our skiing weekend. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and the room was spacious and clean. Stand-out breakfast, with plenty of variety of quality fare to choose from."
"The hotel service at Albergo Spol is nothing but amazing. Very professional, super friendly staff. Amazing breakfast and especially dinner (just wow - they can they cook!). Always a surprise (and sort of artwork) on a plate. Ideally located close to centre and ski area. Cosy wellness which is not too crowded (even in high season) and would recommend a relaxing massage (reasonable price). We are definitely coming back next year. Tip for travellers: ask for a renovated room - looks like a dream! Thank you Hotel Spol for making our vacation so enjoyable"
"We stayed at Hotel Spol 11-17. March 2023, received a warm wellcome, when arriving, got a nice room, and on top of that, which we did not know, Spol had a fantastic restraurant, serving an excellent 5 course dinner, and as well a nice breakfast buffet, the only thing is that you spend too much time in the morning eating, instead of skiing, due to the good food."
