Ski Hire in Les Gets Ski and Snowboard rental options in Les Gets

Introduction

For guests staying in our chalets, we can organise your ski and snowboard hire. Arranging ski and snowboard hire is part of our free Concierge Service, and is included in your holiday. We recommend two ski hire shops: PUREXPERIENCE and Delavay Sports. The choice of service mainly depends on the location of your chalet. Please note, we offer our guests an exclusive discount, and our ski hire prices are lower than renting directly from the ski hire shops. We'll need to know what you want, and we'll take care of the rest.

Finding your level

Whether you've never been on skis before, or you hit the slopes on a regular basis, knowing your ability level will help you find the right equipment. Your ski level is based on your experience, and how well you've developed your technique over time. Ski equipment comes in different shapes and materials, using technology built either to facilitate learning or to make your skiing more aggressive. So, knowing where you fall on the chart will help you choose the equipment that's right for you - although these guidelines won't necessarily describe the exact level you're at.

Ski hire in Les Gets

Information required to book your skis:

Grades of Hire

The ski equipment comes in various levels:

  • Beginner (for complete beginners)
  • Intermediate (for people comfortable on greens and blues)
  • Advanced (for people who are happy on red ski slopes)
  • Top (for people who are happy on any ski slope)
  • Ski Test (click for details)

Snowboards have 2 levels:

  • Beginner (for complete beginners)
  • Advanced (for people who are happy on red ski slopes)

We would ask for everyone's height, shoe size and which grade of equipment they would prefer. With this we can organise to have the best equipment ready for you. For any other price request or information on ski hire, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Ski Test - The best of this year's equipment

For those wanting the very best ski and snowboard equipment you can select Ski Test. This is the very top grade. You'll be using only this year's skis or snowboard, and the very best of them. This means you can try different makes of skis throughout your holiday, as well as you can change equipment depending on conditions - maybe some Giant Slalom skis one day for the groomed pistes, then some super-wide powder skis the next day.

The Ski Test equipment is only available in the ski hire shop though, this cannot be fitted in the chalet. The ski hire shop is by the main 6 man express chairlift so is very convenient.

Les Gets, a smoke free ski area

A smoke free area!

Les Gets has embraced a tobacco-free initiative. Smoking is now prohibited on ski slopes and chairlifts, with designated smoking areas.

When it comes to organising ski and snowboard hire for you and your group, just get in touch. We can handle everything for you at no extra cost. Please just call or email us, we can discuss the all options with you and answer any questions you may have.

For Group Leaders

We have made it easy for group leaders. We have an easy and convenient way for you to arrange all the ski and snowboard hire your group requires, which is through our online booking manager.

Alternatively, you can tell your group members to contact us directly and we will arrange everything for them individually - which makes it less hassle for you. Please contact us about your group extras as soon as you have booked your holiday and we will take it from there.

When To Book

We normally recommend you arrange your ski and snowboard hire around three to four weeks (20 - 30 days) before you depart for Les Gets. We will contact you then to let you know it's time to arrange any holiday extras you would like. If you would like anything that's unusual, or if you are holidaying during the New Years or Half Term period please contact us as soon as you have booked your holiday. This is because extras such as ski lessons can get booked up quickly during these busy periods (although we can guarantee most extras such as your ski and snowboard hire any time of the season). Find out the best times to arrive in and depart Les Get.

Paying for Extras

It couldn't be easier to pay for ski and snowboard hire! We are able to take the payment in resort either by cash or by card. If you like to pay ahead, please let us know and we can send you a link for secure online payment.

We have a card machine we can bring around the your chalet, where each person can pay for their ski and snowboard hire. Online payment for ski hire prior to your holiday is also an option. We do not charge extra for any of these services.
