Cut from a thread about Swiss speeding fines and other bikermate unfriendly foreign customs.

Back there again this year, not staying in Switzerland but will be in Livigno with a couple of ride outs that are 50% or so on Swiss roads.

I've been eyeing up Livigno as a couple of days stop. Passed through there a couple years back and seemed perfect for daily rides in to Switzerland with plenty options.

When you going rather ? And what's the price of your digs ??
 
There in a couple of weeks, Hotel La Montanina:

Works out just under £100 per night for the two of us half board.

A bit of a faddle getting in and out of Livigno, but great choice of restaurants and bars - plus cheapo petrol.

Easy to ride out around:

Stelvio (if you must)
Gavia (You Must!)
Albula
Splugen
Maloja
Julier
Fluella
Bernina

We have 4 nights here giving us 3 days of ride outs, which is enough time to cover all the main passes listed above, you could do a lot with 2 free days, and maybe cover them all by taking in some on your way on and out.
 
The tunnel is 13€ ffs we decided to do the Bernina instead. As for accom. We stayed in the Alpen Village Hotel, absolutely marvellous it was. Team Sky and Quickstep cycling teams were also hold up in there, their teams for the Vuelta I believe. Sky were there for 15 nights, we were there for 2.
