For ski hire, we recommend three shops in the village where you can leave your skis and boots to dry overnight, saving you an uncomfortable walk to and from your accommodation.
Alternatively, if you can ski-in and/or out from the chalet or do not mind a short walk to or from the lifts, then we can recommend two mobile ski hire services that will visit you at the property to bring and collect your skis and boots. (Mobile service not available at La Parisienne.)
You should mention the Alpine Inspirations name when booking to receive any available discount (note the special arrangements for Vermont).
Village Shops
- Berthet Sports is located right opposite the main Chavannes lifts.
Reserve your skis at www.berthet-sports.com/en/bookonline.php
- Nevada Sports is behind the pharmacy, opposite the ice rink.
www.nevada-lesgets.com
Reserve your skis at www.skilouresa.com/nevada-sports (in French only)
- Vermont is located opposite the post office in the old part of the village towards the church.
If you wish to shop or hire skis from here, please let us know as we shall need to provide you with a discount voucher. Vermont is particularly convenient for those staying at La Parisienne.

Note for those staying at Chalet Intime
Your closest hire shop is Perrieres Ski Pro Shop which is a few mins walk towards the Perrieres lift. This may be worth using if you are planning to ski out using the Perrieres lift, rather than from the lifts in the village centre, and to ski back to the chalet on the pistes serviced by the Perrieres lift.
Reserve your skis at www.psps.fr/anglais/home.html
Note for those staying at Chalet Blanc
You will receive a 10% discount from the owners of the chalet if you hire your skis and boots from their shop, Blanc Sports, which is located down a lane to the left of the Le Choucas restaurant, opposite the Casino supermarket.
Reserve your skis in advance by calling +33 (0)4 50 79 75 35 (only French spoken) or visit the shop on arrival in resort.
