Experience the magic of skating at Staveley Ice Rink, set among native beech forest in the stunning foothills of Mid Canterbury. Glide across amazing ice, with skates available to hire and helmets provided (or bring your own).

Warm up beside the large open fire - perfect for toasting marshmallows. Use the on-site BBQ to cook your own lunch or dinner. A small canteen is open for hot drinks, cold refreshments, and snacks to keep you going.

This affordable, family-friendly activity offers something truly unique: fresh alpine air, natural surroundings, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re planning a fun outing with friends, a family adventure, or a memorable day outdoors, Staveley Ice Rink is the perfect winter destination.
