Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Oct 2026).

Two open ice surfaces with no boards, so it's better suited to loops and learning to skate than a pickup hockey game. The permanent lights stretch the day well into the evening, but with no building on site you'll want to lace up at home and keep the visit as long as the cold allows. A neighbourhood effort keeps the ice going, so conditions follow the weather and whoever's been out flooding.
