La Grave, Les Deux Alpes, France

If you’re looking for something to boast about when you get home, get a photo of yourself shredding La Grave. But only if you’ve got a guide with you as this area is an avalanche hotspot. 

It’s a famously unpisted area with ski patrollers but no avalanche control, hence the risk. But the descents are truly jaw-dropping.

It’s not only the home to the gnarliest terrain in the Alps, the peak – the Girose Glacier – is also pretty damn difficult to access. Les Deux Alpes is the nearest resort but a 2km slog with your gear is in order to make it there.
