Galtur Ski Hire

The Silvretta ski area in Austria’s Paznaun Valley is huge, full of pretty alpine villages and towns which exude Tyrolean charm. Galtür is a typical example (along with Ischgl, Samnaun, Kappl and See). Being located at an altitude of 1,600m makes Galtür is a safe bet for continuous snow cover throughout the season. The childcare, local services and shopping at Galtür is good, and the dining and après-ski options range from budget to those which make for a more special night out. As well as alpine skiing and snowboarding, other winter sports to be enjoyed at the peaceful resort of Galtür and its neighbouring villages and towns include cross-country skiing, night-skiing (torchlit descents!), snowshoeing, tobogganing, and more. Any gear which you or your family require can be hired from the ski gear rental stores at the resort.

 

Hiring ski gear at Galtür for your skiing holiday in Austria is a fantastic time and money saving alternative to buying it at expensive sports shops in the UK. Get kitted out with thermals, mid-layers, fleeces, ski jackets, ski pants, waterproofs, ski socks, gloves, boots, bindings, skis, sticks, snowboards, helmets and sunglasses and goggles with 100% UV protection. You can rent all this at Galtür, easily and affordably. You can also buy high factor sunscreen there (SPF 60 sun cream is recommended by experts).

You can either get kitted up with ski wear and equipment at the Galtür ski hire stores on the day you arrive, or pre-book your ski gear rental online from the UK in the weeks leading up to your holiday departure date. The most popular ski and snowboard rental store in Galtür is Sport 2000. In here you will find an array of ski wear, ski equipment and snowboarding gear all available to hire at bargain prices. There is also a ski equipment maintenance service attached to the store, and the option to test ski gear before committing to a hiring fee is available. Opting for pre-booking of ski gear rental online means you could qualify for a 15 per cent discount. Some ski schools at Galtür also offer ski and snowboard hire.
