Imagine yourself gliding through a winding wood, snow gently falling on the trees–the only sound is the gentle scraping of your skates on ice. New this winter, Blue Mountain introduces Woodview Mountaintop Skating. This 1.1 km trail meanders along the top of the escarpment and boasts unparalleled views of Georgian Bay and the southernmost runs at Blue.

The entrance to the skating path begins at the top of the Southern Comfort chairlift and winds through the forest to the top of the Orchard Express. Had enough skiing or snowboarding for the day? Just click off your skis or board and strap on some skates and play a little “puck” on Woodview’s two shinny pads–skate rentals are available on-site.

Enjoy tiki-torch lit night skating every Friday and Saturday, and be sure to stop for a hot chocolate and gourmet hot dog at The Loop, Blue’s newest mountaintop dining experience. The Resort Shuttle makes regular trips from the Village at Blue and there is Woodview parking for those wishing to drive up.

Admission is $13 for youth, $16 for adults and includes two hours of skating.

Operating Hours: Sunday 10am-Dusk, Monday-Thursday 12pm-Dusk, Friday-Saturday 10am-8pm.

Light-dependent hours are subject to weather and conditions. Hours may change without notice. Woodview Mountaintop Skating will be closed from 4PM to 6PM Fridays and Saturdays for maintenance.
