Ice skating

Am visiting Vienna and it%26#39;s Christmas markets between 23-26 November. Does anybody know whether there is any outdoor ice skating on in the city around this time? Thought it might be fun to try at that time of year!

Thanks

Wiener Eislaufverein in Lothringerstrasse 22 (3rd district - bordering the historical centre, very close to Stadtpark) - www.wev.or.at . Click on %26quot;Fotogalerie%26quot; for pictures of the skating ring.

The season there will start this Saturday, so November won´t be a problem. Have fun!

You will find a good outdoor rink just behind the Intercontinental Hotel . It is open daily until 20:00 I think.

They have skates for rent also . This is a relatively large rink.

This is just a short walk from the UBahn Line U-4 stop Stadtpark or from The Ringstrasse.

for map, and rates.

You often see some good skaters there , especially senior ice dancers.

A very nice rink is built in front of the Rathaus- City Hall after the Christmas - New Years Holidays usually opening in the middle of January .
