Nordic Rentals

Cross Country Skiing is divided into two styles: Classic (a.k.a. Diagonal Stride) and Skate (a.k.a. Freestyle). Classic skiing is an excellent introduction to Cross Country: easy to learn, the skier glides straight ahead in parallel tracks. Skate skiing, which is great for those who seek an aerobic workout, has a motion similar to roller-blading or ice-skating. If you have never skate-skied before, we highly recommend taking a lesson. Whether you prefer Skate or Classic, we have up-to-date equipment for your enjoyment!

CLASSIC/SKATE SKI PACKAGE

Our rental equipment features the NNN binding system and top quality skis and boots from Rossignol. Package includes skis, boots and poles.

LESSON PACKAGE

Includes a Classic or Skate rental package (skis, boots & poles), one hour lesson and a full day trail pass. Sign up is on a first-come, first-serve basis at the Nordic Center. Designed especially for beginners, this is an excellent deal!

snowshoes

Exploring winter on a pair of snowshoes is a fun and relaxing way to experience the beautiful Deschutes National Forest. With the purchase of a trail pass, snowshoers may also use the entire Mt. Bachelor Cross Country Trail System.

PULK SLED

Try out a Pulk Sled and pull your infant behind you while skiing or snowshoeing! Pulks have a weatherproof shell and secure buckled harness. $25 per day. Quantity is limited so please call the Nordic Center at 1-800-829-2442 ext. 2211 to reserve.

WAXING SERVICES

Hot Box your skis at the Nordic Center!

We have a fabulous Ski and Snowboard Sauna hot box! Waxing with a hot box penetrates deeper into the bases of your skis and provides an even more durable finish than ironing alone. The cost is $20 and includes base prep, hot box treatment and a final waxing and polish. Please allow 48 hours for this service. See our friendly staff in rentals!
