This place is magical; it's right in the middle of the park and is a close walk to everywhere in Le Plateau. The ice surface was perfect for an afternoon of skating with people of all ages and skill levels. The music was nice, the trees and benches in the middle provided a great place to rest and to people watch and the beer inside when you're done is only 4,50$. The best part is, the skating is free and there's lots of parking if you need it. Bring your own lock for the locker and come on down. The rink is open until 10pm.
