19 designated rinks and lagoons at 13 locations throughout the park system.  

• FREE-TO-USE: All designated rinks and lagoons are free to use. No reservation required! 
• SKATE RENTALS AVAILABLE (first-come, first-served): Elver, Tenney and Vilas
• No rentals on Mondays and Tuesdays. 
• CHECK THE STATUS: Is the rink open? See the status below.
  • DO NOT skate, walk, or otherwise go on a rink or lagoon until it is declared open. Doing so is not safe and slows the opening process by damaging the ice.
  • While ice is never 100% safe, staff monitors the ice depth to be at least 5" to safely support humans and grooming equipment.
