Les Menuires Ski Hire
Booking ski equipment hire for your Les Menuires holiday is one of those decisions that makes the entire trip run more smoothly - and the benefits start before you've even left home.
For starters, setting off on a ski trip to the iconic Three Valleys without the bulky ski bags means a lot less stuff to carry, no excess luggage charges, and no anxious wait at the baggage carousel, praying your kit made it in one piece. Instead, in resort, you'll have access to modern, well-maintained equipment that's been properly fitted to you. Regardless of your ski ability level, beginner or advanced, there is quality ski equipment suited to your grade and experience.
With Erna Low, arranging your ski hire couldn't be more straightforward. It's all part of the online booking process, so you can select and confirm your equipment at the same time as booking your holiday. Everything is pre-arranged with our resort hire partner, meaning your gear will be ready and waiting when you arrive in Les Menuires - no unnecessary delays, just straight to the slopes.
How much does it cost to hire ski equipment in Les Menuires?
Your ski ability level, the quality of equipment and the duration of hire are the factors that determine how much it will cost to hire ski equipment for your Les Menuires ski holiday.
Entry-level or beginner equipment generally costs less to hire than priced lower, while higher-performance equipment designed for more advanced skiers typically costs a bit more to hire. The duration of your hire also affects the total price, with rates typically calculated per day and offering better value for longer bookings. In some cases, ski hire prices may differ or fluctuate depending on the season.
You’ll find the total cost of your ski hire on the ‘ski extras’ page. Simply select your preferred equipment level and hire dates during the online process and add to the basket. The total price will then be clearly displayed and added to your overall holiday cost before you confirm. There are no hidden charges, and you won’t pay more when you book through us. Our ski hire prices are set directly by our trusted local partners in Les Menuires, ensuring you receive competitive, in-resort rates while keeping everything organised in one place.

What Level of Equipment Do I need for my ski holiday in Les Menuires?
The level of equipment you’ll need for your Les Menuires ski trip should reflect your current ski ability level and confidence on the slopes. With Erna Low, you can select from four main categories: Eco, Evolution, Sensation and Excellence.
Eco equipment is ideal for beginners or those returning to skiing after a break. These skis are stable, forgiving and well-suited to green and blue runs. Evolution is designed for improving skiers who are comfortable on blue and red pistes and want more control and responsiveness. Sensation suits confident intermediate to advanced skiers looking for stronger edge grip and better performance across varied terrain. Excellence is the top-tier option, featuring high-performance skis for experienced skiers who enjoy speed, steeper slopes and more demanding conditions.

Where do I pick up my ski equipment in Les Menuires?
