Just a stone’s throw from the neighboring resort of Tignes, Val d’Isère is internationally renowned as one of the capitals of skiing and winter sports.

And of course, there are also ski rental shops in Val d’Isère, offering high-quality equipment, professional service, and a team ready to assist you.
A traditional village dedicated to sport
In the past, the locals of Val d’Isère had to cope with the huge amounts of snow that fell each winter. This eventually gave rise to tourism centered on winter sports, and ski rental services in Val d’Isère began to appear. Still, Val d’Isère is one of those Alpine ski resorts that has managed to blend modernity, convenience, and a wide range of activities, while preserving its authentic architecture—just like Méribel, Belle-Plagne, La Plagne-Montchavin, Pralognan-la-Vanoise, and others.
The well-known charm of the Savoie region is evident throughout the village. Whether you choose to stay in the town center, in the hamlets of Le Crêt or La Daille, life here is more than pleasant. What’s more, you’ll easily find a ski rental in Val d’Isère close to all these areas, thanks to our various Sport 2000 shops.
With the equipment available for rent or purchase, you’ll have everything you need to enjoy the sporting activities offered by the resort. Alpine skiing, of course, but also every other form of snow sport, along with a variety of activities to diversify your experience. You can, for example, try tree-top adventure courses, ice climbing, snowshoe hiking, fat biking, speedriding, and more. Just remember to book these activities in advance to make sure you get a spot.

Ski Rental in Val d’Isère to Make the Most of the Ski Area
Famous for its resorts (Méribel, Courchevel, La Plagne, etc.), the Tarentaise Valley offers exceptional conditions to all snow sports enthusiasts who come here every winter. In Val d’Isère, more than 300 kilometers of slopes are available within the area linked to the neighboring resort of Tignes. That’s why renting your ski equipment in Val d’Isère is always a safe bet!
This gives you access to countless options for skiing and snowboarding, including dedicated freestyle areas. In fact, the ski area features two snowparks, a boardercross, and other facilities designed to entertain the thousands of tourists who flock here each year. Whether on skis or a snowboard, this vast playground, equipped with numerous ski lifts, is perfect for an unforgettable mountain holiday.
Cross-country skiing fans are not left out in “Val,” with 44 kilometers of trails dedicated to the discipline. Each Nordic area is designed for cross-country skiing, but also features trails for hikers and snowshoers, right in the heart of pristine mountain landscapes. You’ll find Sport 2000 shops offering online or in-store rental of the right gear: cross-country skis with boots, snowshoes, poles, and more.
Rent Your Equipment at Attractive Prices in Val d’Isère
With your alpine skis strapped on, you may choose to take on the legendary—and notoriously challenging—Face de Bellevarde. If you’re unfamiliar with the name of the iconic rock overlooking the resort, a quick search online will give you an idea. The “Face” is one of the world’s most famous black runs: a near-vertical wall linking the Bellevarde summit to the village at 1,850 meters, with a drop of nearly 1,000 meters. Stretching almost three kilometers long, it is a true gem, extremely demanding to ski due to its daunting gradients. Some of the greatest races in the world have been held here, with the planet’s top skiers taking on the challenge. The final wall of the “Olympic stadium” is especially impressive—and by renting your ski equipment in Val d’Isère, you’ll have the chance to ski in the tracks of great champions such as Alexis Pinturault or Marcel Hirscher.
If you’re particularly comfortable on skis, you can also set off to discover the freeride spots of Tignes – Val d’Isère: professional guides can lead you to the most beautiful untouched areas to enjoy fresh powder and breathtaking scenery.
Where to Book Your Accommodation and Equipment in Val d’Isère
Whether with family, as a couple, or with friends—and for a variety of budgets—Val d’Isère offers accommodation to suit every preference. During your stay, you can choose between hotel rooms, holiday residences, apartments, or even entire chalets.
Next comes the choice of neighborhood: do you want ski-in/ski-out convenience, the lively atmosphere at the heart of the resort, or a quieter setting? The charming village center brings together all the essential shops and services, with entertainment just steps away. Several ski lifts are only a short walk from most lodgings, along with the Sport 2000 Boraso Sport shop and, just a little farther, the ESF ski school.
If you prefer to stay slightly outside the center while still enjoying easy access, you can opt for Le Crêt or head towards Le Laisinant, where the Eskiador Val d’Isère and Iseran Sports shops offer ski and snowboard rentals, including children’s equipment.
Another emblematic area is La Daille, located on the road to Bourg-Saint-Maurice. Slightly more remote, it’s an excellent base for accessing both Val d’Isère and Tignes. The ski lifts here lead directly to the Bellevarde summit, connecting with the neighboring resort. The Sport 2000 Boraso Sport shop in La Daille is ready to welcome you and provide everything you need to enjoy the slopes and surrounding trails.
