Hire ski and sports equipment in La Ravoire, near Chambéry

You can collect your equipment the day before your rental from 4 pm, or on the day itself, at the rental area (on your left as you enter the store). For returns, you have two options: the same evening until we close at 7 pm, or the following morning until noon. After that, an extra day of rental will be charged. Please allow for traffic, especially at the end of the day when the ski resorts close.

The store is closed on Sundays. To ski on Monday, collect your equipment on Monday morning: if you collect it on Saturday, Sunday is charged. To ski on Saturday, return your equipment on Saturday evening before 7 pm: otherwise, Sunday is charged.

Any late return is charged as an extra day of rental.

No, online booking is optional: you can also hire without booking. It is recommended if you want to secure the availability of certain equipment, especially touring skis, splitboards and safety equipment. For alpine skiing and snowboarding, it is advisable, but we have a large stock and can always offer equipment to suit you. Bookings are made on the Notresphere platform.

Online booking is possible up to 48 hours in advance. After that, no booking can be made, either online or by phone: just come directly to the store.

Cancellation is free, even on the planned start date. Send an email to contact@notresphere.com with your surname, first name and booking number. The Notresphere platform will confirm the cancellation and the refund of your advance payment by email. Bookings are non-refundable once the original start date has passed.

No. At busy times there may be a wait, but our team does its best to keep it short.

No. The calculator gives an indicative price and lets you create a quote, subject to availability. To book, use the Notresphere platform (optional).

As a guide, take the child's height minus 10 cm for skis, and minus 20 cm for a snowboard. Our junior skis go up to 160 cm (for children up to 170 cm tall). Above 75 kg, junior bindings cannot be set firmly enough: adult skis are needed. Enter your child's height and shoe size in the calculator: it will only show suitable equipment.

Yes, we offer insurance against theft and damage with our partner Diot Montagne. It is optional and only covers alpine skis and snowboards (except Excellence packs). Touring skis and splitboards are not eligible. Prices and excess amounts are available in store.

Yes for via ferrata: via ferrata packs can be booked online on Notresphere, just like skis. However, online booking is not available for climbing, mountaineering, canyoning, stand-up paddleboarding or child carriers: please come directly to the store to collect this equipment.

Lanyards are designed for users weighing 40 to 120 kg. For a child, they may only be used with an adult who has mastered belaying techniques.

Our whole rental fleet is maintained regularly in our own workshop, inside the Montaz store. Skis in the Sensation and Excellence ranges are edge-tuned and waxed at least once a week, and those in the Eco and Découverte ranges at least once every three weeks, depending on their condition.

We do not hire out cross-country ski equipment at Montaz: we leave that to our colleagues at the Wordenstore, specialists in endurance sports. They welcome you all winter at the Worden store in La Féclaz for your rentals. Please note that the Worden store in La Ravoire does not offer rentals.

We hire out Ski Mojo exoskeletons suited to different weights and body types, at €59 per day. The rental price is deducted if you then buy a new Ski Mojo exoskeleton (see our Ski Mojo exoskeletons). Rental includes a fitting and instruction session and is by appointment only, by phone on +33 4 79 72 96 86 or by email at matthieu@montaz.com.
