Hiring ski equipment isn’t the gamble it used to be. Thanks to huge advances in ski and snowboard technology, renting your gear is now a brilliant option for both first-time skiers and seasoned pros. You’ll enjoy the latest, most trusted models, carefully fitted to suit your size, style, and ability.
Ski hire also saves you the hassle (and cost) of ski carriage, and in many resorts you’ll have the flexibility to swap equipment during your holiday making you adaptable to changing snow conditions, or to simply trying something new.
Booking your ski hire with Skiworld couldn’t be easier. Just select what you need on the Ski Essentials section when booking your holiday, and you'll recieve a voucher ready to pick up your gear upon arrival. Already booked your trip? No problem. Log in to My Skiworld at any time to add ski hire to your booking in a couple of clicks.
We offer three levels of ski and snowboard hire: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. The examples shown are indicative of each grade; your rental equipment will be of a similar high standard.
Perfect for first-timers or those sticking to gentle green and blue runs. Beginner skis are light, stable and easy to control, giving you the confidence to enjoy your first turns in safety and comfort.
Beginner-friendly boards are designed to make learning easier, safer and more fun. Forgiving and stable, they’re ideal for building skills on green and blue slopes without the frustration.
Ready to push your skiing further? Intermediate skis strike the balance between stability and performance. They’re versatile enough for exploring varied terrain while still being forgiving as you sharpen your technique.
When you’ve mastered the basics, intermediate boards give you the control and responsiveness you need to progress. They’re perfect for tackling more challenging runs with confidence.
For experienced skiers, advanced skis deliver precision, power and performance across all terrain. Whether you’re carving hard or hunting powder, these skis are designed to take your skills (and thrills!) to the next level.
High-performance boards for confident riders who want to push boundaries. Built for speed, control and versatility, they let you take on any slope or snow condition with style and power.
If you’re bringing your own skis, snowboard, or boots, you’ll need to pre-book ski carriage on your flight. Spaces are limited and can sell out quickly, so we recommend arranging this as early as possible by calling us on 0330 102 8004.
Please note that luggage allowances and ski carriage prices vary depending on the airline, so it’s always best to check the details before you travel.
Any loss or damage to hired equipment must be reported to the ski hire shop immediately. Payment is required in resort, and you can submit an insurance claim once you return to the UK. Cover depends on your policy, so please check your level of protection carefully.
Many shops offer optional “top-up” insurance to cover excesses. In some resorts, a refundable deposit and separate breakage insurance may also be required. All equipment must be returned to the hire shop by the day before departure or on the day of travel. For more details, see our guide on insurance options.
If you haven’t pre-booked lift passes or ski hire, don’t worry; our Skiworld resort team can assist shortly after your arrival. Please note that bookings in resort are usually card payments only; cash may not be accepted.
We’re only able to guarantee service and quality for shops within our network. We cannot intervene if you hire equipment from shops not affiliated with Skiworld.
