Hemsedal is Norway's most alpine-feeling resort, with steep terrain and great snow.
Hemsedal has 55 km of pistes and reaches 1,497m at Totten peak — the 'Scandinavian Alps' nickname comes from the surprisingly steep black runs like Tindeløyper and Roni. The altitude is low by Alpine standards but the 60°N latitude keeps snow dry and cold well into April.
Hiring or renting ski equipment in Hemsedal is the smart choice for most visitors. Luggage costs for ski gear can exceed the price of a week-long rental, and local shops offer ski rental perfectly tuned for Hemsedal's terrain — all levels level, 55 km of pistes at up to 1450m.
Through GetSki you can rent any combination of equipment in Hemsedal — from individual items to complete packages. Each service is delivered by verified local shops with on-mountain pickup and free swaps during your stay.
Snowboards for all riding styles available — freeride, freestyle, and all-mountain shapes tuned for Hemsedal's all levels-level terrain. Bindings adjusted to your boots on pickup; free swap if conditions change mid-stay.
Properly fitted ski boots are the single biggest factor in comfort on 55 km of pistes. Local shops carry the latest models from Salomon, Atomic, Lange, and Tecnica — fitted by qualified bootfitters who know the terrain. If they don't feel right after the first day, swap them at no extra cost.
Certified helmets (CE EN 1077) from €5/day. Modern shells with MIPS rotational impact protection are available at most shops in Hemsedal. Helmets are mandatory for under-18s in many resorts and strongly recommended for everyone — better to rent than fly with one.
Waterproof shells and insulated jackets sized for layering. Hemsedal's typical december – april conditions can swing from −15 °C blue-sky days to wet sleet at lower altitudes — rental options cover both.
Skis + boots + poles bundled, the most cost-effective option for full-week stays. Typical pricing in Hemsedal: NOK280–NOK500/day with package discounts of 15–25 % compared to renting items separately. Package level matched to your skill — beginner, sport, or performance.
Properly sized children's skis, boots, and helmets — adjusted to weight not just height for safer release-binding behaviour. Kids' ski sets are typically 30–50 % cheaper than adult equivalents in Hemsedal; many shops offer free helmets when renting a full kids' package.
Forgiving skis (shorter than your height, softer flex) with comfortable beginner boots — built to make first turns easier on Hemsedal's nursery slopes. Some shops bundle ski-school discount vouchers with their beginner packages, worth checking at booking.
Lightweight aluminium and carbon poles available individually if you're bringing your own skis and boots. Sized to your height by the shop on pickup.
UV-protected lenses for high-altitude bluebird days, plus high-contrast lenses for flat light and snow conditions — both worth having for Hemsedal's top altitude of 1450 m.
Hemsedal's après scene is distinctly Norwegian — skidtoget (ski-in-ski-out base bars) operate under strict closing times, and most socialising happens at post-ski sauna sessions rather than at bars.
Typical daily ski rental in Hemsedal costs NOK280–NOK500. Booking a full week package usually saves 15–25% compared to daily rates.
Night skiing runs Tuesday through Saturday until 9pm on 14 floodlit runs — the low sun from 3pm onwards in December means the lights come on while the mountain is still open naturally, giving you two consecutive ski sessions on one ticket.
