River rinks
The Assiniboine Credit Union River Trail presents free programming and fun activities on the weekends for the whole family!
Skate, walk, run or sled along the Guinness World Record-holding longest naturally frozen skating trail in the world.
Beginning at the heart of the city, The Forks, the Assiniboine Credit Union River Trail is a winter family tradition.
Programming this year includes some old favourites and some exciting new additions.
“There is really something for everyone this year; from ice painting and inukshuk building to Voyageur games and photo booth,” says Ginette Lavack-Walters, Executive Director, Festival du Voyageur. “We are extremely pleased that we can also offer free programming every weekend from noon until four.”

While the rivers may still need a few more cold days, the trails in Arctic Glacier Winter Park , on the Forks site are seeing a fair share of skaters.

“The 1.2 kilometres of trails within Arctic Glacier Winter Park and the two skating rinks are groomed daily,” said Paul Jordan, Chief Operating Officer, The Forks. “The rest of the amenities, including the snowboard park, toboggan run and snowman lane, are still under construction, but with the help of some snow will be completed soon.”
