An authentic mountain heritage
With its cobbled streets, stone houses and Notre-Dame de l'Assomption church, La Grave has preserved its traditional character. Visitors can discover the museum of local traditions, retracing the life of the inhabitants of the high mountains.
A paradise for high mountain lovers
The Meije glacier cable car allows you to reach an altitude of 3 metres, offering access to a spectacular panorama of the Alpine peaks and the most legendary off-piste skiing routes. For the more athletic and budding hikers, don't hesitate to take the Plateau d'Emparis trail, which offers breathtaking views of the glaciers and high-altitude lakes.
