Obergurgl Advice

I am travelling with my family for a week%26#39;s skiing in Obergurgl starting the 1st December staying at the Hotel Alpenland.

Does anyone know if it is possible to rent ski jackets/pants there? We live in Saudi Arabia and have little or no cold weather gear and will have to try and order by internet otherwise which will be real hassle.

Alternatively, we will be passing through Munich - can anyone recommend a good store where we can find (inexpensive preferably) ski and cold weather gear in the city?

Thanks!

Dr Bob

Usually you can only rent the skiers and boots, but not the clothes.

I will post the information concerning all the sport stores, where you can rent things in this area and maybe you try to contact them per e-mail and ask if there is also the possibility to rent clothes as well:

Thanks Ulrike - I have tried calling Riml and Lohmann but have not got though before now. I will e-mail all of your suggestions. If no luck, we will probably look at buying ski clothes in Munich on our way through.

To anyone with the same question as me - you cannot rent ski clothes in Obergurgl and I was advised that it is likely not possible in any Austrian ski resort. I think some of the German resorts do though, so check on a case by case basis.
