Ski Hire in La Plagne (Aime)
There are several different ski hire shops in Aime La Plagne with good value options with the likes of Ski Republic, Intersport and Skiset who we are affiliated with.
The chances are if you are staying in this resort that you have booked accommodation at one of the two Club Med hotels. They do have their own separate ski hire shops located within their hotels and you can book in advance of your arrival by adding the equipment you want to your booking. However, although using one of Club Med's own stores is the most practical option, it is not the cheapest. The prices we can offer at either of the SKISET stores below will give you considerable savings. Either of the stores are an easy two or three minutes walk from the Club Med La Plagne 2100. However, the walk from the lower Club Med Aime hotel up to the SKISET shop at Les Hauts Bois is more like a 10 minute walk.
