Bormio is a historic alpine town in the Valtellina valley of Lombardy, northern Italy, sitting at around 1,225 metres elevation near the Swiss border. It is best known as a world-class ski destination, hosting legendary downhill races on the Stelvio slope as part of the FIS Alpine Ski World Cup, and offering access to the vast Alta Valtellina ski area. In summer, the town transforms into a base for hiking and cycling, including iconic climbs such as the Stelvio Pass — one of the highest paved mountain roads in the Alps. Bormio also has a long tradition of thermal bathing, with natural hot springs that have attracted visitors since Roman times.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
