Why skiing is so expensive?

Skiing is expensive. Often, the expense seems to be higher when you are a first-time skier due to the cost of skis and all of the other equipment required to ski. However, such is the high cost of skiing, it is branded as a sport for the upper-class elite or only for elite sports enthusiasts. Here at Chill Factore, we want to demystify this preconceived notion and show that skiing is actually for everyone. In our latest blog, we discover why skiing is seemingly so expensive and reveal how to cleverly avoid the added expense of this sport.

Why skiing is so expensive?

To find out why skiing is so expensive, we’ve got to look into where this expense is coming from. One of the main reasons that skiing is expensive is due to the cost of skis and other equipment. You need to buy, or you can rent, skis, boots, goggles, safety gear, as well as the appropriate clothing for skiing through the mountains. You also have to factor in the expense that comes with travel and accommodation. Then there is the cost of purchasing ski passes to the actual slopes. You may even need to consider the cost of ski lessons or ski school if you are a newbie to the sport.

That’s a lot of expense, right? So, what can you do to minimise the cost of skiing? This is where Chill Factore comes in handy!
