Skating goes hand in hand with hockey, hockey goes hand in hand with winter and winter goes hand in hand with Canada…
Therefore, skating is Canada.
If you’ve ever experienced a January evening on an outdoor rink or frozen pond then you no doubt understand both the joys and discomforts of roughing it in a Canadian winter on the ice.
While the opportunity to skate on frozen ponds in the Toronto area may be scarce due to over-development and ‘yo-yo like’ weather conditions, the chance to skate on outdoor skating rinks in the Toronto area is plentiful.
The city of Toronto is home to an astounding 50 outdoor skating rinks. At various times throughout a winter day these rinks are regularly Zambonied by city workers to ensure optimal conditions for all to enjoy.
Many of these locations remain the ‘hidden gems’ of Toronto, waiting to be discovered. All day public skating opportunities are available, as well as designated ‘adult-shinny-hockey’ for those looking to do their best Mats Sundin impression to go backhand-top-cheese.
