Description

The outdoor skating rink was originally built in 1872, during the mandate of the Earl of Dufferin, Canada’s third governor general. Along with his wife, Lady Dufferin—who quickly became a keen skater herself—he organized many skating parties during his stay at Rideau Hall. Today, you can step back in time and go for a skate on this historic rink which is also now refrigerated.

Until March 15th, 2020* (weather permitting)
Saturdays and Sundays only, from 12 noon to 5 p.m. (without reservations).
