Ski & Snowboard Hire
Chalet Alistelle guests will be taken to our recommended ski shops to be kitted out with skis or snowboards on the afternoon of arrival. We will then be on hand in the chalet to give advice on all aspects of your equipment. We have experienced ski and snowboard technicians on our team - if you have your own skis or board we can service these for you.
Chalet Le Loup guests are 50 metres from the recommended ski shop and we will be more than happy to give advice on your hire equipment.
Chalet Grande Tourne guests are close to lots of ski hire shops including our recommended shop which is linked from this website. Your chalet host will let you know how to get there and give advice on equipment.
We recommend that you order your equipment in advance to guarantee
availability and to benefit from lower prices than you will find in
resort. The earlier you reserve, the less you will pay. As a guide,
depending on how far in advance the reservation is made and on the
quality of equipment, prices for 6 days hire range as follows:
Adult skis & boots : 64 to 123 euros
Child skis & boots : 48 to 55 euros
Adult snowboard & boots : 80 euros
Child snowboard & boots : 58 euros
We recommend that Chalet Alistelle and Chalet Le Loup guests reserve their equipment at Intersport Tignes Les Brevieres. We recommend that Chalet Grande Tourne guests reserve their equipment at Ski Republic Tignes Le Lac Bec Rouge.
By ordering in advance on line you can make great savings.
