STORE HOURS AND EQUIPMENT PICK UP

All rental gear need to be picked up and returned in our regular opening hours, unless arranged otherwise in advance. You can find our opening hours on the bottom of our website. Opening hours can be changed on short notice.

Due to COVID-19 we have reduced opening hours until end of 2021.

We recommend checking for the latest updates on opening hours prior to your arrival.

If you arrive outside of our regular opening hours, we can deliver and/or collect equipment from hotels located in the city center (a fee of 100 NOK or 450 NOK for each collection and delivery applies). Occasionally the rental center can be opened outside of normal store hours (service fee of 400 NOK applies). This needs to be arranged separately prior to your arrival.

PRICES AND PAYMENTS

All prices are stated in Norwegian Krones (NoK). Prices for equipment rental cover the rental of the equipment only. You will need to collect and return the equipment to Tromsø Outdoor Activity and Rental Centre at Sjøgata 14, Tromsø, unless you arrange a delivery/collection. Costs incurred with transportation of equipment to another site are not included in the rental price, and are to be paid as arranged. Rental fees are to be payed in advance - upon reservation and are subjected to cancellation fees in case of cancellations and changes.
