Ski Hire Made Easy with Skiworld...


Equipment Insurance

Any loss or damage to hired equipment must be reported to the ski hire shop immediately. It must be paid for in resort and the appropriate insurance claim submitted when you return to the UK. (This depends on your policy and is subject to conditions. Please make sure you are aware of the level of cover offered by your policy). Many shops offer ‘top up’ insurance to cover excesses. In some resorts a refundable deposit is payable for hire equipment as well as separate breakage insurance.  You must ensure that your equipment is returned to the hire shop before closure on the day before departure or the day of travel. See more on insurance and find out about the options available.

If you decide not to pre-book your lift passes or ski rental, yet are staying in one of the resorts in which we offer this service, your Skiworld resort team will be able to help you shortly after your arrival in resort. Please note that when booking this way we may only be able to take card payments, not cash.

We regret that we will be unable to intervene should the skis or service you receive from a shop that is not part of our network prove deficient or below standard.
