The
Shimla
ice-skating rink has the largest open-air area with naturally frozen ice
in this part of the world and the Ice-Skating Club has already celebrated
its Diamond Jubilee. Figure skating, speed skating or ice - hockey - one
can try his hand at any of these available at the Shimla Ice Rink.
Fancy-dress carnivals, 'gymkhanas', ice hockey and dances enliven every
season.
SEASON
Ice-skating normally begins in early December and carries on till
February. Clear skies and low temperatures can provide a series of
uninterrupted sessions. There are two sessions every day, in the morning
and again in the evening.
MEMBERSHIP
Memberships are available for the 'season' as well as for shorter terms
and even for single sessions. Skates are also available at the rink.
