Ski Hire in Les Arcs (2000)
There are several different ski hire shops in Arc 2000 all with the good value options of the larger chain stores with Precision Ski, Intersport, Sport 2000 and SKISET.
Easy online ski hire booking for Arc 2000
Arc 2000 is a relatively small resort and pedestrian friendly so getting around from one side to the other is not too arduous - although please note that at 2,000m altitude the air is a little thin. We recommend the resort flagship store, the Front de Neige Skiset store (see photo). This is situated opposite the start of the Lanchettes Chairlift in the centre of Arc 2000 and offers perfect ski in ski out convenience.

Our prices compared with other ski holiday companies
The online booking process is as easy as pie. There is no need to enter your shoe size, weight or height. Simply choose your 1st ski day (usually the day after you arrive in resort), the number of days you wish to hire for and what category of equipment you wish to book. On booking you will receive an email receipt for your booking with an attached voucher. Please print this voucher and present at any SKISET store in your resort.
For each quality category there are many different makes and models of skis and snowboards to choose from. The shop staff in resort will help you select the best equipment from the category you booked to match your ability, preferred ski terrain (piste, park or off-piste) and the prevailing ski/snowboarding conditions.
Your ski hire voucher can be used at the following SKISET stores (see map below):
- Skiset Front de Neige: The flagship store on the snow front opposite the Lanchettes chairlift - Place Olympique.
- Skiset Aiguille Rouge: Located in the L'Aiguille Rouge building in the commercial centre of Arc 2000, overlooking the ice rink.
- Skiset Arolles: Located at the Residence Chalet des Neiges in the lower section of the resort.
Extended ski hire for 7 or more days
If you wish to hire for 7 or more days (perhaps you are self-driving or taking the overnight Eurostar service) then please visit the SKISET website. Their online booking system will accept bookings of 7 days or more. If you are booking in a French resort the price for 7 days hire is the same as 6 days so you can enjoy 7 days hire for the price of 6. Use this link to benefit from special rates for Alpine Answers clients: Hire periods of 7 or more days.SKISET 'Premium' category of rental equipment
The top category of rental equipment available through any holiday company is the 'Excellence' category (which we price below). However, if you book directly through the SKISET website there is a more expensive 'Premium' category available for those that have to have the best no matter the extra cost.
