At the time of booking, the name and contact information of the club's contact person must also be provided in addition to the booker's contact information. Ski passes can be collected from the Piste rental shop, Valley rental shop, or Vuosselinportti rental shop.

For every eight trainees, one coach gets a free ski pass for the same period, or we offer one free season pass to the coach for eight trainee season passes. A coaching season pass can be granted based on the previous season's performance, allowing coaches to have access to their season passes right from the start of the new season.

When ordering a lift ticket, the name of the team, the number and duration of the lift tickets, and the names and ages of the coaches/skiers/guardians must be stated. In the case of training season cards, the license or Skipass numbers of the licensors must also be stated. Our sales service has the opportunity to check the validity of licenses/passes from Ski Sport Finland's license register.

*The cost of calling the business number is a mobile call charge when dialed from a mobile phone and a local network charge when dialed from a landline. The call cost is determined based on the caller's phone contract. When calling from abroad, the cost is determined according to the local operator's price list.

Piste Rental Shop and ski service help you to find the best possible maintenance for your equipments. We provide services for alpine skis, telemark skis, cross country skis and snowboards.

Piste ski service operates the modern automatic ski service machine Wintersteiger Discovery. We are able to take care of the alpine skis of both beginners and racers, as well as cross-country skis! If special pattern grinding is needed, it must be discussed separately according to the customer's needs.

For the snowboards we do the grinding by hand. This results to an excellent base for the snowboards.
The ski service also involves priming the equipment. We use a thermal oven for priming, which means that the cream is properly absorbed into the base of the skis and gives the equipment more life and excellent glide. We recommend priming lubrication especially for new equipment!

In the Ruka Ski Inn accommodation you will find maintenance rooms for skis and snowboards that are suited for big groups as well. If you are staying in Ruka Village, we recommend using the maintenace tables located in Ruka parking hall.  

For frequentuly visiting teams we offer storage space for slalom sticks and other equipment in Vuosseli maintenance hall, address: Vuosselintie 17. Storage space is limited and it is filled according to bookings. Inquiries and bookings primarily via e-mail: trackbooking@ruka.fi.
