Good to know

Benches and informational signs along the route. The ice on the trails is well-maintained, and its thickness is regularly measured, ensuring that outdoor activities on the marked route are always safe. Please do not deviate from the designated path. Ice conditions can be checked on the Ice Skating Facebook page.

Also, be mindful not to venture into the shoreline snowdrifts to avoid disturbing seal nesting areas. Avoid walking on the ice near the harbor (long pier) as it may be weak. Always confirm the condition of the route before venturing onto the ice.
