La Joue du Loup in English translates to "the wolf's cheek". However, this cosy location in the south west of the Départements Hautes-Alpes is everything but raw and wild. The still-young ski village is a snowy and well-maintained station in the heart of the Seealpen, around 95 km away from Grenoble, and stands for comfort and family-friendly ski fun! While castles are nowhere to be found, a lot more awaits in this little location, with its cosy chalets traditionally constructed of wood- hence the charming nickname, the "Village of Wood".
Despite its humble size, La Joue du Loup is certainly not to be overlooked. In the lively village centre, you can find shops, restaurants and cafes waiting to be strolled by, sauntered into, and feasted in. Due to the size of the location, you can go exclusively a short distance to the lifts, shops, and dining opportunities. Diverse leisure activities, such as snowshoe hiking, dog- or horse-sledding, or even movie theatre nights provide plenty of variety besides the pistes. The way to the ski area SuperDévoluy lies right in the area.

La Joue du Loup offers numerous ways to end your day of skiing, whether cosy or sporty. For example, enjoy a cosy movie night in "La Tanière" with crisp popcorn and a refreshing coke, dine on French delicacies in various restaurants or enjoy an evening snow shoe hiking through crunching snow. If you prefer a faster evening, you can use snow scooters on various routes with varying levels of difficulty through lovely landscapes. Party lovers will also find something here, in cosy pubs or in the disco, to bring the evening to an end. More variety can also be found in neighbouring resort SuperDévoluy.
