Overview

La Grave is one of the Alps’ most renowned off-piste ski areas. For years it has attracted the best of the world’s off-piste skiers who come for the great skiing and the majestic beauty of the place.


Description

We have chosen La Grave as one of the venues for our Expert-level Off-piste weeks aimed at serious skiers capable of negotiating the steepest slopes in the toughest conditions.

You'll need to be on top of your game to be up for this challenge!

Ski Programme
This week will be an opportunity for expert level skiers to spend a week skiing off-piste with one of our team of international mountain guides.
There is no set itinerary.
The week will start with a welcome meeting & briefing on the evening of the first day.
This is an opportunity to meet your guide and the rest of the group and to discuss the plans for the week.
The itinerary for the remainder of the week will be set by the guide based on the snow and weather conditions, his recommendations and your own preferences.

The week is intended to be fun with lots of thrilling skiing but always directed with maximum attention to your safety and the safety of others.

Ski area
The village is dominated by the towering La Meije and it is here from the top of the gondola (at 3,500m) that you’ll find some of the most rugged and challenging off-piste skiing and snowboarding in the Alps. This is steep glaciated terrain with gaping crevasses. You don’t need to stray too far from the 1 groomed run to find 50°slopes and cliffs and couloirs that demand total commitment.

Skill: *******

Our Expert level off-piste adventure courses will be the most demanding trips suitable only for the advanced skiers capable of skiing the steepest slopes in the toughest conditions. Participants need to be supremely fit. These weeks will take place in renowned off-piste resorts e.g. La Grave and Alagna and will be led by mountain guides specializing in extreme skiing.

Stamina: *****

To participate on the expert level courses you need to have excellent fitness and endurance. These are demanding courses where you'll be skiing hard all day for a week. If you enjoy long lunches and plenty of breaks, this course may not suit you!

Accommodation and meals
You will be staying in one of the comfortable hotels in/around La Grave. Our preferred hotel is the Hotel Edelweiss, a comfortable, 2 star hotel located close to the lift station in La Grave. The hotel has a restaurant serving good food. Other facilities include hot-tub and sauna.

About La Grave

Gentle slopes, easy blues, loads of modern lifts and an all-purpose resort for everyone? Sorry, not here. This is cutting edge skiing, no frills and hardcore. La Grave offers some of the most extreme skiing and most stunning mountain scenery in the world. Only the really top boys and girls should try skiing the mountain, La Meije. Skiing it without a guide is perilous, with hidden crevasses and twisting couloirs waiting to catch you out. There is only marked run, the rest is all off-piste - technical, heart-pumping stuff. It's a traditional old mountain village, with a few hotels, bars and restaurants, but can be affected by the traffic whizzing through. The whole place resonates with the sound of intrepid tales from La Meije conquerors. There is absolutely no pretension or pretending involved in the skiing here. Let's hope you're up to it.
