Ice skating in Warsaw, why not? :)

Winter … Is there any chance to spend this time actively?  Yes, there is! In this article, I’ll show you one of my favourites activities during winter.

So here comes the cold days in Poland … Probably, many of you are going to spend it under their blankets and not moving from their houses. Some of you probably will try to search for other ways of spending their free time during winter. If you want to spend your free time actively, I really recommend you ICE SKATING.

From year to year, ice skating becomes much more popular in Poland, especially in Warsaw. It is a good way of having fun and at the same time spending time actively (burning calories).

There are many ice rinks in Warsaw,some of them are free for some you have to pay for entering (but it’s worth it,trust me :D )
In Poland ice skating season starts in November/December and ends in March.

You don’t have your own ice skates? Don’t worry! :) You can rent them! At the ice rinks, there is a possibility to rent ice skates, one hour costs from 5-10 zł.

My top 5 ice rinks in Warsaw:

1) Ice rink on the National Stadium of Warsaw -> you enter for 75 minutes
ice rink A (2010 m²) : reduced/normal ticket from Monday to Friday 10/13zł, Weekends 11/14zł
