Outdoor Lake Skating

When conditions permit, there are opportunities to skate outdoors on Whistler’s many local lakes. Skating outdoors should only be considered when the ice conditions are safe and is undertaken at your own risk. Ice should be at least 4 inches thick before skating is considered safe (Bring a drill or hammer to confirm before you skate). Contact local residents, local fishing operators or the fire department to confirm conditions.
