Dear Mr. Kempler,
Take the Alto Adige Bus transfer from Milano Malpensa
Airport to Bressanone/Brixen
where you will be able to catch a bus to Corvara. The complete updated website
of public transport in Alto Adige is
www.sii.bz.it. It is 62km from
Bressanone/Brixen
to Corvara.
The local taxis company in Alta Badia is:

To travel from Corvara to Bormio, catch a bus to Brunico or Bolzano.
Then catch a train to Silandro or Tirano, which is probably the closest village
to reach Bormio - see train schedules for that destination,
