How we ranked them
Each rink's position comes from its Google rating, weighted by how many reviews sit behind it. A 4.7 from several hundred skaters is a steadier signal than a 5.0 from three, so it ranks higher. Rinks with no rating at all come last.
The list covers public ice venues of every kind: indoor arenas, outdoor and seasonal rinks, and community rinks. Clubs, coaches and rink service companies are left out. Nobody pays to be listed or ranked.
Before you go
Rinks share their ice between public skating, hockey, figure skating and lessons, so a rink can be open all day with only a few hours of public skate. Check the session calendar on the rink's website or call ahead, especially on holidays and school breaks.
