Trekking Gear on Rent in Pune: Full Price Guide

A proper Himalayan trek needs a down jacket, waterproof shoes, a sleeping bag, gaiters, spikes, poles - a kit that costs Rs. 25,000 or more to buy. If you trek once or twice a year, renting the whole kit for a week costs less than one good jacket.

Here is what trekking and camping gear costs to rent in Pune right now, with real prices from live listings.

What a full trek kit costs for a week

Put together a typical Kedarkantha or Sandakphu kit for 7 days:

• Down jacket: 7 x Rs. 65 = Rs. 455
• Fleece + trek pant + gloves: 7 x Rs. 90 = Rs. 630
• Waterproof shoes: 7 x Rs. 105 = Rs. 735
• Sleeping bag + mat: Rs. 880
• Spikes + gaiters: Rs. 530
• Pole + head torch + backpack: 7 x Rs. 65 = Rs. 455

That is about Rs. 3,700 for a week of gear that would cost over Rs. 25,000 to buy. Browse the full range: trekking gear on rent in Pune. Camping-only trip? See camping gear on rent in Pune.

How renting trekking gear on Rentux works

1. Pick your items from the listings above, or browse the trekking gear collection.
2. Place a booking or send an enquiry on WhatsApp with your trek dates. This records your requirement and shares it with the vendor network - it is not a confirmed order yet.
3. A vendor confirms availability, sizes, price and delivery timing with you directly.
4. You complete a one-time ID and address registration.
5. The gear is delivered to you, or you pick it up from a partner store.

Read the damage policy before you book, so you know exactly how wear and tear is handled.

Tips before your trek

• Share your shoe size and jacket size in the enquiry. Vendors confirm fit before dispatch.
• Book a week ahead for the December-February snow season. Down jackets and spikes run out first.
• Test your shoes on a short walk before the trek - a rented pair still needs a day to break in.
• Ask for a waterproof bag cover if your dates fall in the monsoon or snow season.

Camping gear prices (tents and sleeping kit)

Gear	1 Day	3 Days	7 Days
2-person tent	Rs. 250	Rs. 500	Rs. 1,000
3-person tent	Rs. 300	Rs. 600	Rs. 1,200
Sleeping bag	Rs. 200	Rs. 400	Rs. 700
Sleeping mat	Rs. 50	Rs. 100	Rs. 180
Spikes (for snow and ice)	Rs. 100	Rs. 200	Rs. 350
Gaiters	Rs. 50	Rs. 100	Rs. 180

A 7-day camping kit - tent, sleeping bag and mat - costs around Rs. 1,900 for the week. The same kit costs Rs. 12,000-15,000 to buy.

What a full week-long trek kit costs

Add it up for a Himalayan week, at live 7-day rates: shoes (Rs. 735), down jacket (Rs. 455), fleece (Rs. 210), trek pant (Rs. 280), gloves (Rs. 140), head torch (Rs. 70), poles (Rs. 105), backpack (Rs. 280). That is roughly Rs. 2,300 for the entire personal kit - less than one good down jacket costs to buy. Add a tent and sleeping kit if your route is camping-based and you are still under Rs. 4,500.

Common questions

Are sizes available in shoes and jackets?

Vendors stock common sizes, but popular sizes go first in season (October-February for Sahyadri treks, May-June and September-October for the Himalayas). Mention your sizes in the enquiry so the vendor can confirm before you commit.

Is the gear clean?

Jackets, sleeping bags and fleece are cleaned between rentals - ask the vendor if you want to confirm. Shoes and poles just get wiped down and checked.

Do vendors deliver, or do I pick up?

Both exist. Pickup points in Pune are common; many vendors also deliver. The vendor confirms the exact arrangement and timing on your enquiry.

What if my trek gets cancelled or dates shift?

Tell the vendor as early as you can. Most will work with you on revised dates if the gear is free.

Can I rent for just a weekend?

Yes - day rates apply. A Sahyadri weekend (Sinhgad, Rajgad, Harishchandragad) needs shoes, a jacket and a torch at most, which is under Rs. 200 a day.

Tips from regular trekkers

• Break in rented shoes before the trek. Wear them for a day in the city. Blisters on day two of a trek are misery.
• Layer, do not bulk. Fleece + down jacket beats one heavy jacket - you adjust as you climb.
• Rain cover or gaiters matter more than you think in the monsoon and on snow.
• Check torch batteries at pickup and carry one spare set.
• Photograph the gear at handover so the return is simple for both sides.
• Book a week ahead for long weekends. Diwali and New Year treks empty the shelves fast.
