About The Ski Hut
The Ski Hut has been Duluth's premier ski and bike shop since 1955, family-owned and operated on the same corner at 1032 East 4th Street for nearly 70 years. Now in its third generation of Neustel family ownership, the shop has grown from a small ski outfitter into a full-service outdoor retail and rental hub covering skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, kayaking, and canoeing.
Their rental fleet includes cross-country and alpine ski packages, snowboards, snowshoes, fat bikes, mountain bikes, kayaks, and canoes. The shop also runs a full-service repair department for bikes and skis, with expert boot fitting and tuning. Whether you need a weekend fat bike rental for the Duluth Traverse or a freshly waxed pair of classic skis for the Spirit Mountain trails, the Ski Hut has the gear and the know-how to get you out the door.
What keeps locals and visitors coming back is the staff's deep knowledge of Duluth trails, snow conditions, and gear. Three generations of the same family have skied and ridden every trail in the region, and that institutional knowledge translates into honest, no-nonsense advice you won't get at a chain store.
