Other Activities

Apart from cycling in the summer and skiing in winter, you will find many other things to do in La Grave and the area.

SUMMER

  • WALKING / HIKING

 

 

We are on the GR54 which passes through La Grave - so walking and hiking in the spring and summer months are superb.

 

 

 

  • MOUNTAIN BIKING

There are plenty of single tracks and cross-country trails around to enjoy pedaling and indulge the great scenary dominated by the La Meije massif and its glaciers. You can stop for a lunch break at a high altitude hut to savour some local specialties or you have a
nice pique-nique by the clear water lake...don't forget you are a bon-vivant sportif ! And why not finish your trip by relaxing in our Sauna area followed by a sports massage by a professional massage therapist, or have a relaxation session at the Hot Springs Spa in Monetier les Bains? This all sounds like the perfect way to prepare for the ski-season!

 

  • MOTOR CYCLE

We are on the Grande Traversee des Alpes which runs from Lake Geneva to Nice via all the cols so here is the perfect stop over for the motorcycle, bicycle, sports car and vintage motor tours.

 

  • CLIMBING / VIA FERRATA

There is a large range of mountaineering and climbing opportunities, as well as Via Ferrata fixed climbing routes - including the longest one in Europe at Grand Clots, 2 km from La Grave village.
