From what I have heard, no one hires stuff, you just nick someone elses.

Thanks edy, a season after I asked the question and been but still thanks anyway. There're decent hire shops there, tends to be the smaller outfits rather than the ones associated with the tour operators.

When are you going and which hotel? Have you been before?

Hi can anyone point me in the right direction, Going to lake bled in Feb 2009 and looking to hire the gear I am looking to find on the net some hire shops in bled, as to arrange hire before i get there and hopefully get it a bit cheaper than the tour operators are offering. thanks
