Outdoor Rinks
Outdoor rink sites are maintained by the Parks section and include boarded rinks for hockey/ringette, as well as snowbank rinks for leisure skating. Three ponds are also available for skating (hockey sticks and pucks are not allowed on the ponds or ovals).
Neighbourhood Activity Centres (indoor skate shacks) are operated by individual community associations. Skate shack booking information is found on the Neighbourhood Activity Centres page.
Not all outdoor rinks have benches, so we recommend bringing your own chair if you are watching others skate, or if you need to sit and tie your skates.
