Between Bourg d'Oisans and the Col du Lautaret is the village of La Grave. This lies under the magnificent peak of La Meije, at 3983 metres the highest summit in this area of France.

This scenery was the inspiration behind the contemplative music of the great French composer, Olivier Messaien.

Now take a ride in the Telepherique!
