Cross country ski rental in La Givrine
Feb 9, 2014 @ 13:43

Hell all,


My husband and I are taking the train to la Givrine next weekend to try out xc skiing. We don't have our own skis and I am hoping to find somewhere convenient to rent them near the trails.


Google hasn't turned up anything in La Givrine and renting Friday night in Lausanne to ski Saturday then returning them Monday (as I'm guessing we'd have to do with Aubert Sport in Lausanne, given their hours), seems like a pain in the butt. Does anyone know of a better solution?


 


Thanks as always for your help!

You can rent skis at the rental place near the train stop, it costs 28 CHF

Thanks Dhamari! Is it pretty easy to see once I get off the train, or will I need to find more informations (hours, a map, etc) before going?

Also - don't forget to take cash because they don't accept cards!
