Ice Skating
Skate via ice trails & free skate zones across the 24,000 sq ft outdoor surface.
Available mid-November through mid-February.
Every fall, the upper pond of the Whitewater River converts into a 24,000 sq ft ice skating center featuring the largest ice rink in the Southeast. The Center features four distinct skating areas, including two ice trails, two free skate zones, and an Airstream serving hot and cold beverages in the middle of the rink. Pond Hockey and Cask Curling are also offered on select days of the skating season.
Cask Curling
Discover Whitewater’s take on curling with Cask Curling as you slide mini kegs across the ice to compete for points.
Access to Cask Curling is included with an Ice Skating pass (Single Activity, Day, or Annual Pass). Lane reservations are required and can be made in advance or on-site.
Check the Daily Activity Schedule to plan your visit and to see when curling is available.
