Raise your hand if you’re ready for a winter day trip! Pack up the car (don’t forget plenty of extra warm layers) and hit the road to Sylvan Lake to check out the ice slides! The folks from Ice on Whyte have built the slides bigger than ever before to accommodate more people. The kids and kids-at-heart are sure to love it! You can find the slides near the beach and the Lake Skating Rinks. The ice slide is expected to last a week or two before melting — somewhere near the end of February 2021.
While you’re out at Sylvan Lake, be sure to visit the Winter Village. Located at the Sylvan Lake Pier (Lakeshore Drive & 50 St), you’ll find over 300,000 glittering lights! Take the family to visit this dazzling light display nightly from 5-11 pm from December to mid-March.
Last, but not least, be sure to pack your ice skates for this winter day trip. On Sylvan Lake off of Lakeshore Drive you’ll find three ice rinks. Loop around the Rink Tree or bring your stick for the hockey rinks! Benches and parking available on-ice. And new for 2021, don’t miss the color-changing lighting on the Lake Skating Rinks.
All activities are FREE and self managed. If they’re busy, please come back another time!
