| Bormio, 1225 m., is situated in the heart of a wide valley surrounded by lots of mountains among which there is the Mount Reit, 3075 meters high, that is in the Stelvio National Park. Where the streets for Livigno, Stelvio and Valfurva meet, the resort links the charm of the mountains and the ski together with that of an ancient history which is still today reflected on its characteristic historical centre.
The starting point is Roma street, characteristic pedestrian street, flanked with ancient palaces.
At the beginning of the street you can find the beautiful church in Romanesque Style named after Saint Vitale, and after few steps the massive Tour of Alberti.
