Skaters' trail
Skating is a great way to exercise, take in some fresh air and have an enjoyable time during the winter season.
At Parc Jean-Drapeau, an ice trail has been laid out so that fans of this activity can do their thing — and it's mere minutes from downtown Montréal. This magical ice path is refrigerated and regularly maintained, thereby ensuring a memorable experience, especially after a small snowfall.
Come and spend some time open skating, by yourself or with your family, and get a glimpse of the setting sun, as it sinks behind the city's skyscrapers.
Dimensions: 3 by 500 metres (10 by 1,640 feet)
Natural ice rinkAnnexed to the skaters' trail, the natural skating rink offers a large rectangular ice surface that will enhance the experience on the site. Although the natural ice rink won't be refrigerated, the ice will be maintained throughout the winter, despite the occasional whims of Mother Nature. Dimensions: 30 by 38 metres (100 by 125 feet) |
