La Grave and the massif of La Meije offer the biggest lift-accessed off piste skiing in the world! Not only that but it is one of the few massifs which has an incredible 2150m 2300m of (7050ft) vertical drop. This off-piste mountain range can provide exhilarating skiing terrain for the advanced skier, snowboarder and tele-marker. The Skiers Lodge is perfectly positioned within only 3 minutes walk to the lift! This lift ascends from the village at 1400m to stations at 1800m, 2400m, 3200m, and finally to Dome de la Lauze, “the Glacier”, at 3550m. A typical ski descent offers limitless variety from tame to steep terrain commencing on this glacier, proceeding down spectacular open bowls, winding its way through small chutes, crossing glacial moraines into seemingly endless steeps and deeps in the serenity of the forest. Legendary descents from the Girose glacier, with direct lines of 2300m explain why so many riders come back year after year to enjoy free-riding with one of the most spectacular mountain scenery in the Alps. FMGA Mountain Guide Pelle Lang, the founder of Skiers Lodge, has come across this spectacular mountain village during his search for big mountain skiing. His dream was to create a lodge owned and operated by skiers for skiers. In 1989 this dream becomes a reality. "Careful thought is given to the itineraries that are chosen for each day.

The goal is to keep clients challenged by the terrain, but not terrified by the surroundings. La Grave, de la Meije is not a ski resort. Ski resorts adapt to skiers whereas here the skier must adapt to the mountain. This is best achieved by the guidance received from the experienced guides within the Guide Service allowing the client to enter terrain otherwise inaccessible to him/her in a safe manner. All guests are given safety equipment which they are trained to use. Groups are limited to 5 persons ensuring a good level of safety and allowing for different skiing pace. All guides are qualified by the IFMGA and speak English, French, German and Swedish. In close proximity to La Grave there are many resorts with their own micro climates and our guide team may propose one of numerous possible day trips all within an hour’s drive.
