Livo among churches, mountains and a historic palazzo

Livo is home to impressive landscapes, churches and historic architecture. Those who want to experience Italy beyond purely urban destinations will find points of interest here for cultural pursuits as well as days spent among mountain trails, peaks and regional excursions.

Between gorges and mountain trails

Livo lies between the gorges of the Pescara and Barnes streams, in the centre of the Altopiano del Mezzalone. This location gives the surroundings a distinct natural framework. In Livo, you can go mountain trekking along numerous trails. Some mountain trails are connected to excursions at higher elevations of varying difficulty, allowing plans to be tailored to your own interests and the level of challenge you want.

The Rankipino cycling and walking route also passes through Livo. When planning a day in Livo, Rankipino and the mountain trails can be considered as different options for the day.

Churches with a long history

The village is home to the Church of San Martino, a very old building of Romanesque origin. In Preghena, a hamlet of Livo, there is also the Church of Sant'Antonio. In Varollo, the Church of the Nativity of Mary stands on the site of a church that presumably existed as early as 1209. The Glesiot loggia chapel was built beside it around 1630.

Palazzo Aliprandini Laifenthurn

Palazzo Aliprandini Laifenthurn stands at a corner of the main square in the centre of Livo and has medieval origins. Its central tower dates from the 11th century. At the same time, the palazzo is a venue for temporary exhibitions.

Castles, mountains and excursions in the surrounding area

In the immediate vicinity of Livo is Castello di Cles, a castle. Also nearby are Monte Ozol, a mountain, and Monte Nuovo, a peak. The surroundings of Livo also include Monte Pin, a mountain, Cima Vese, a peak, and Parrocchia Di Sarnonico, a church. In the wider regional area around Livo are Castel Thun and Castello Boymont, both castles.

Plan your stay according to your own interests

When choosing your hotel in Livo, you can first decide which focus should define your stay. The churches, the chapel and Palazzo Aliprandini Laifenthurn favour a trip in which architecture and history are given plenty of space. The Rankipino route, the numerous mountain trails and the associated excursions to higher elevations, on the other hand, point to a more active daily rhythm. Since the mountain trails are connected to excursions of varying difficulty, plans can be tailored to your personal preferences. Livo therefore provides a clear basis for bringing together cultural and nature interests when choosing your accommodation.
