Dogwood Park and Munster Hamlet Community Centre
Outdoor skating
Community-maintained: volunteers flood it, so it usually opens a week or two after the first cold stretch.
2890 Munster Road, Goulbourn
Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Feb 2019).
The boarded rink and the adjoining puddle ice give you two options in one stop — shinny on one side, room for skaters just finding their feet on the other — and the permanent lights mean both stay usable well after dark. With the community building open for washrooms and a place to lace up, it works for a longer visit, though the ice is looked after by volunteers rather than city crews and nobody is on duty, so conditions come down to the weather and the week.
