Ski Rentals

Until further notice, we are suspending all gear rentals. Trail users must purchase a day ticket or season pass and bring their own ski or snowshoe equipment to use our trails. We apologize for the inconvenience. We thank you for respecting our trails.

When cross-county skiing or snowshoeing, it is best to wear layers of non-cotton clothing: a thin base layer, a middle insulating layer, and an outer windproof/water- resistant layer. We do not recommend wearing thick Gortex downhill ski bibs or jackets, as they tend to be very hot. Expect to generate more body heat while cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Being prepared with multiple thin layers allows you to remove or add layers as needed. Other essentials include sunglasses, hat, gloves, non-cotton socks and sunscreen.

When snowshoeing, add comfortable, lightweight, waterproof shoes to the above list, as snow tends to spill atop shoes regardless of conditions.

Rental packages include cross-country skis (skate or classic), boots (skate, classic or combi) and poles. Snowshoe rental packages include snowshoes and poles. We offer rental equipment for all ages, weights and sizes on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Tahoe XC offers kids skis as well as 9 pulk sleds for rental, allowing parents to safely tow a child while still in his or her own car seat. One- or two-seat pulk sleds provide enough additional space for snacks, blankets and a pair of small skis, which are included in the sled rental.

Bring the family dog! 8 kilometers of dog-friendly trails include Blue, Special Green and Dogonit trails. Please see our dog-friendly rule and hours on our trails page.

Essential ski clothing, accessories and snacks are sold in the lodge in case you or your family forgets something.
