Ice Skating

CLOSED FOR THE SEASON

All ice rinks and skating lagoons officially closed for the season on Sunday, February 23, 2025. 


No ice is completely safe. Opening an ice rink or lagoon for skating involves careful assessment. Always check the status online or call the Parks' office before skating. Each rink and lagoon's status is listed and updated promptly. Rinks/lagoons will close if meltwater is visible to prevent extended closures from damaged ice. See Declaring a Rink or Lagoon as Open for more information. 

SKATE RENTALS & CONCESSIONS
Skate rentals and concessions are available from the staffed warming shelter in Elver, Tenney and Vilas. The season typically ends the third weekend in February, or sooner depending on ice conditions. 
 

Skate Rentals Price per Hour
Adult $6
Youth - age 15 & younger $3
Each additional hour $2
Hockey Stick (Elver, Tenney & Vilas) $3




LOANER SKATES 
Free-to-use skates are available at Olbrich, Warner and Westmorland Parks. Borrow a pair of ice skates to use while at the rink. Limited quantities and sizes are available from inside the warming shelter. Please wipe down and return before leaving the park. 

EVENTS & GROUP OUTING
Attend a winter event open to the community or reserve a winter recreation party for your group. All winter activities depend on the weather and conditions and are subject to change.

Indoor and portable restrooms are provided at a number of parks. See the webpage for open locations. 

PETS & BIKES
