Why we recommend SKISET + 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):
- Michaud Sports 1: Located on the main shopping street, Rue du Centre, in the centre of Les Gets.
- Michaud Sports 2: Located on the Route du Front de Neige which runs along the foot of the home pistes. This shop is opposite the Chavannes Express chairlift and the Chavannes gondola station.
You can store your skis and ski boots overnight at Michaud Sports which means you can get around the resort to and from the lifts in comfortable shoes or walking boots without having to carry your equipment.
