Canada is filled from coast to coast with incredible natural skating spots. From lakes in the Rockies to canals stretching miles, it’s impossible to deny that this country loves its outdoor ice. One spot in particular, however, might just be the coolest skating path in the entire country. Let’s take a look at the Fire & Ice Nights at Arrowhead Ice Skating Trail.

The 1.3 km-long skating trail winds through delightfully lush Muskoka forest and will have you feeling like you’re skating through the set of a fairy tale. It’s a perfect date night, super family-friendly, and if you catch the weather just right, the experience of a lifetime.

Now, when the sun goes down on Fire & Ice Nights, Arrowhead Skating Trail really becomes magical. On select Thursday and Saturday nights, the entire trail will be lit by hundreds of tiki torch flames.
