Upgrade your rentals to high-performance skis.
NEW TO WINTER 2026
Executive Rentals give experienced skiers access to premium Nordica and Blizzard skis, offering a step up in performance from our standard rental range.
Pick up your skis directly from our on-mountain workshop, with the option to swap models during the day.
Why rent up here.
Keep the day simple and get straight into it when you rent your gear directly from us onsite at Whakapapa.
- Modern skis, snowboards and boots updated for 2026
- Easy swaps if you need a different size or setup on the day
- Bundle lessons and rentals together in one easy booking
- Pick up right on mountain, close to the snow
- No squeezing rental gear into the car or hauling it up from the car park
Learn to Ski Package
Purchase your rentals with our Lesson Package, which includes your lift pass, rentals and lesson of your choice, for savings of up to 40%.
Season Rentals
Collect your skis or snowboard and boots once, then keep them for the season so you are ready to go each time you arrive, with no repeat fitting or queues.
Season Pass Discount
As a perk all our 2026 Season Pass Holders enjoy 10% off standard rentals, making each visit a bit easier.
We have two rental outlets up here.
BASE AREA & HAPPY VALLEY
Head to the Base Area and go upstairs above Lorenz’s Bar & Café, or take the elevator down to Happy Valley to find the other location.
You can collect your gear from either location. Book online ahead to save time (which we highly recommend) or head straight to any open rental shop on the day.
