For a one-day rental, night sledding is not possible with our rental sleds, as the sled must be returned by closing time at the end of the agreed rental period.

Please do not leave the sled unattended outside the store overnight. In the event of loss or theft, the renter is liable for the resulting damage or loss up to CHF 350.

Even without skiing, there are plenty of ways to enjoy winter in Grindelwald. At Buri Sport, you can rent a sled or book a guided tour.
The region also offers winter hiking and many other winter activities.
For a classic ski day, you will need skis, ski boots, and poles, as well as suitable winter clothing and a helmet.
At Buri Sport, you can rent everything you need for a great day in the mountains: skis, snowboards, sleds, helmets, ski goggles, jackets, and other winter sports equipment. Our team will be happy to help you put together the right equipment for your ski day.
This means you do not necessarily need to bring all of your own winter sports equipment to Grindelwald.
Our international ski and snowboard instructors offer private lessons in German, English, French, Italian, and Japanese. Upon request and depending on availability, lessons may also be available in Spanish and Russian.
This allows you to enjoy your ski or snowboard lessons in Grindelwald in a language that makes you feel comfortable and confident.
Children generally need the same basic equipment as adults: properly fitted skis, ski boots, poles, and a helmet. The most important thing is that the equipment matches the child’s height, weight, and ability level. In most cases, comfortable and easy-to-handle equipment is the best choice.
At Buri Sport, we help families choose the right rental equipment and adjust it individually for each child.
For beginners or children skiing for the first time, a private ski or snowboard lesson can also be a great option. Buri Sport has its own private ski and snowboard school in Grindelwald.
If you arrive in Grindelwald by train, our location at Dorfstrasse 89 is especially convenient, just about 100 meters from Grindelwald train station. You can pick up your ski or snowboard equipment there and head straight out for your day on the slopes.
Alternatively, you’ll also find us at Dorfstrasse 160 near the First cable car. Buri Sport has three locations in Grindelwald in total.
It is best to come to the shop beforehand.
We can then take care of all the administrative details:
Where the lesson will take place
Information about your ski instructor
Arranging a meeting point with your ski instructor
Payment for the lesson
and so on.
We offer a wide selection of current ski and snowboard models from leading brands such as Stöckli, Salomon, Völkl, Dynastar, Rossignol, Head, Atomic, Blizzard, Nordica, Burton, and Capita.
The right skis for you depend on your ability, skiing style, and the current snow conditions. At Buri Sport, you’ll find models for beginners, intermediate skiers, and experienced skiers.
Our team will help you choose the right category and model in the store. If you find during your rental period that another pair of skis suits you better, you can exchange your rental equipment free of charge.
