About Ski Hire NZ

Mountain Lovers Sharing the Stoke in Queenstown

At Ski Hire NZ, we’re passionate about the mountains and helping people experience the very best of the Southern Lakes snowfields. As a locally owned ski and snowboard rental shop in Queenstown, we’re here to make your time on the snow easy, comfortable, and unforgettable.

Ski & Snowboard Rental Experience

Owner-operator Thom brings over 30 winter seasons of experience across rentals and workshops. You’ll often find him on the mountain and always happy to share advice.

High-Quality Equipment

We update our skis and boards regularly and ensure every piece of equipment is tuned to perfection before each hire.

Locally Owned & Operated

We understand what matters most to visitors and locals alike from the best slopes on the day to where to eat and unwind after skiing.

Our range is designed for beginners through to experienced riders, with gear we trust and proudly use ourselves.
