About Hemsedal Ski Shop
Hemsedal Ski Shop is the oldest independent ski rental operation in Hemsedal, Norway's most popular alpine ski destination outside the Olympic venues. Operating for over 20 years from its location in Hemsedal Mountain Village on Skiheisveien, the shop sits just 200 metres from the Lodge Express chairlift, giving customers direct access to the resort's 53 runs and 21 lifts spanning peaks that reach 1,450 metres.
The rental selection covers alpine skis, snowboards, cross-country equipment, touring setups, and snowblades, with packages available at beginner, sport, and performance tiers for adults, youth, and children. All packages include boots, poles, and helmet. The shop stands out for its transparent pricing policy — no dynamic surge pricing during peak weeks — and offers up to 40 percent off for online pre-bookings, making it one of the more affordable rental options in a region where Scandinavian price levels can surprise first-time visitors.
Beyond competitive pricing, Hemsedal Ski Shop has earned a loyal following through genuine local expertise and a no-frills approach to customer service. The staff are experienced skiers who know the mountain intimately and can recommend the right equipment for the day's conditions. For budget-conscious families and savvy travellers who book ahead, the combination of quality gear, fair pricing, and lift-proximity makes this independent shop a smart first stop in Hemsedal.
