Lech Ski Hire
Not in the mood for extra baggage fees for ski equipment? In this economy? Save yourself the cost (and the hassle) and let us do the (virtual) heavy lifting.
With 305km of slopes across the Ski Arlberg region, having well-fitted, well-maintained hire equipment genuinely makes a difference to your ski experience. Having the right kit on gives you confidence, performance, and comfort you need - especially across a full week on varied terrain. Our ski hire partners in Lech stock the highest-quality equipment available for hire at all levels, from all-mountain setups and free-ride favs to children's skis, snowboards, and boots in all sizes.
At Erna Low, we always recommend arranging your ski hire before you leave home. When you book your Lech ski holiday through Erna Low, ski hire can be added directly to your package at the point of booking. You can even collect your equipment from the afternoon before your first ski day, so nothing is standing between you and a first run first thing the next morning.
How much does it cost to hire ski equipment in Lech?
The cost of ski hire in Lech depends mainly on the standard of equipment you choose and the duration of your rental. You’ll typically find a range of categories available, from entry-level gear suited to beginners through to premium skis designed for more advanced performance. Higher-spec equipment will generally cost more.
The length of time you hire your equipment also affects the overall cost. Longer rental periods often offer better daily value, particularly for week-long holidays. When booking with Erna Low, you can easily select your equipment level and the number of days required, with the total price shown clearly before completing your booking. Importantly, you’re not paying extra by booking through us. Trusted partners in Lech provide our ski hire prices, so you benefit from the same in-resort pricing and the convenience of organising everything ahead of your trip.

What Level of Equipment Do I Need for my ski holiday in Lech?
We always advise and strongly recommend that the equipment you choose reflects your ability, confidence, and the type of skiing you enjoy. Choosing the right level helps ensure your equipment supports your skiing, rather than holding you back. With Erna Low, you can select from four levels: Eco, Evolution, Sensation and Excellence.
- Eco is a good choice for beginners, offering simple, reliable equipment that’s easy to control as you learn.
- Evolution is designed to help skiers build confidence and explore more of the mountain. It provides a step up in quality and responsiveness.
- Sensation is well-suited to intermediate skiers who want better grip and smoother handling, particularly on varied terrain and longer runs.
- Excellence is aimed at advanced skiers who want top-tier equipment that delivers strong performance, precision, and stability at higher speeds.
Can I hire ski equipment for young children in Lech?
Yes, you can arrange ski equipment for young children in Lech, with options available for those as young as three years old. Skis, boots and helmets can all be hired, ensuring children are fully equipped and ready for their time on the slopes.
Where do I pick up my ski equipment in Lech?
You’ll pick up your ski equipment in Lech from the ski rental provider listed on your Erna Low voucher. This voucher will be available in your members' area shortly before you travel so that you can access it easily upon arrival.
There’s no need for a printed copy, as most shops accept digital vouchers. You can simply show it on your phone when you arrive at the rental shop, where staff will already have your booking details. Once there, the team will prepare your equipment and ensure everything is properly fitted. This includes boot fitting, ski sizing and helmet adjustments where needed, so you’re comfortable and ready to ski. It’s a simple, organised process that helps you avoid delays and get out onto the mountain without unnecessary waiting.
