Bormio is a popular winter sports resort, and is the site of the Men’s downhill and snowboarding events for the 2026 winter games. In the non-winter months, the area is a hiker and trail runner’s delight, with scenic options for all abilities.

The best ‘easier’ run, and a run doable in winter as well, is the cycle path along the Adda River. The paved path runs along the river from near the center of Bormio, for 4.2 km. There are wonderful views of the water and surrounding mountains. Winter Note: The path is not ‘plowed’, but it gets a lot of foot traffic so snow does get packed down. Grippers are recommended.
Start at the river near the center of town. Head west along the river path for nearly 1 km, on a gradual downhill slope. Cross the SS38 and turn RIGHT, heading north for ~3 km along the Ciclopedonale on the east bank of the river. Enjoy the views! The path ends in San Gallo, though there are additional paths and trails in the area.

This 50 km multi-use trail is best spot for a run in Cortina that's not a trail run. Enjoy classic alpine views. The path runs from Cimbanche and Pieve di Cadore, passing through Cortina. Steady downhill north to south. ~6 km near Cortina is plowed in winter.
A pleasant 7 km loop around the Boite Stream in Fiames, located 5 km north of Cortina. Mainly wooded run on a flat gravel path, with some water & mountain views. Good shade option on a hot day!
Livigno is part of the Valtellina Cluster of the alpine events for the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Olympic Games. There's gorgeous running on paths along Lago Livigno and the Spöl River, which can be mix & matched. Beautiful views!
The Fiemme Valley is host to nordic skiing and ski jumping events for the 2026 Winter Olympics. Best running spot is the paved cycle path that runs between between Predazzo and Molina di Fiemme, passing through Tesero.
