About Outdoor Skating
The City of St. Albert is proud to offer residents a variety of outdoor boarded rinks and social ice surfaces throughout the city. They’re wonderful locations nestled in our parks and are perfect for any type of skater. Practice your figure skating or teach your little ones the joy of skating!
When not in use for the winter season, some of the outdoor boarded rinks are open for off-leash play with your dog. Find locations
