Just had another thought. We arrive in Amsterdam off the ferry at 9.30am. I was hoping that we would be able to hire the skis on Saturday but I have a feeling that by the time we get there, the shop will be shut ( what time do the ski hire shops shut?) and any idea how long it will take to get to Niederau from Amsterdam..... 10 hours?

Im trying to get myself organised.....eventually and reffered back to this link of where to book the ski hire.

I know you said there are 3 places to hire skis in Niederau, so I just have a couple questions

If I go through ski set it is margareti ski shop. is it cheaper to hire through ski set or go straight through them and if so do you have a website?

many thanks for your help

I am worried now!! I have not been skiing for about 18 years and the last time I skiied was on the old style skis. someone please tell me it will be an easy transition to the shorter wider tipped skis

Primark sell ladies thermals. no idea on quality though

You never know he might have been converted to Niederau and never stepped foot outside the village.

There doesnt seem to be much snow fall at the minute so I hope the conditions are good for them.

I dont know about you but I cant wait to hear from all the j2skiers who are in Niederau at the minute.

Are the snow conditions good? I hope it is living up to Tony's expectations lol )

well even if it is crap can you just lie about it coz we are going in 7 weeks and i am really looking forward to it lol
